Job Filters

In the MyQ Web administrator interface, in MyQ, Settings, Printers & Terminals , under the General section, it is possible to Allow a color job on a B&W printer, but the job is accounted as B&W. This option is disabled by default.

If a job is not allowed to be printed because the selected format/color is not supported by the device, there will be a red exclamation mark icon next to the job. Clicking the icon displays the reason for the error:

  • Color jobs cannot be printed on this device, when a color job is spooled to a B&W printer.

  • A3 jobs cannot be printed on this device, when an A3 job is spooled to an A4 printer.

    Format jobs filter notification
  • Neither color nor jobs in this format can be printed on this device, when an A3 and color job is spooled to an A4 and B&W printer.

Managing jobs on the My Jobs screen

To display the available job management options, select the job from the list. The selected print jobs management bar opens at the top of the screen.

Selected jobs management bar

On the bar, you can select from the following options:

  • Print: Tap the printer icon to print the selected jobs.

  • Edit: Tap the edit icon to edit the print options of the selected jobs. In the Print options dialog box, depending on the permissions given by the administrator, the user can select between color or B/W, toner saving options, simplex/duplex options, and change the number of copies. After changing the print options, the user can tap the printer icon to print the jobs.

In certain cases, you may see listed some print options that are not applicable due to the queue or printer being used. For example, you may see Color options despite printing from a queue set to B&W or on a printer that can only print B&W. In cases such as these, this command will be ignored.

Print options
  • Add to favorites: Tap the star-plus icon to add the selected jobs to your favorites (Visible on the Ready jobs tab and on the Printed jobs tab).

  • Delete from favorites: Tap the star-minus icon to delete the selected jobs from your favorites (Visible on the Favorite jobs tab).

  • Delete: Tap the bin icon to delete the selected jobs.

Job Preview

The Job Preview feature is used to generate previews of jobs. To enable it, go to MyQ, Settings, Jobs, Job Preview. It is possible to limit the Number of pages to be generated (1 by default) in the preview. To include all the pages, set the value to 0.

Once enabled, the Job Preview (eye) button is visible on the terminal.
