Configuring the Queue Folder

This is used to make settings (dedicated settings such as specific media or request details) common to all print data added to the queue folder. In cases such as when the media used or printing specifications are the same, configuring the queue property settings will eliminate the need to configure the job settings for each print data.

Configure the settings of the queue folder in the Queue Properties window.

  • The settings are applied to the print data to add to the set queue folder.
  • This section explains how to configure the minimum settings required for printing (the size and type of the media to use in printing and the printing quality). Configure other settings according to the application.
MEMO If you are unfamiliar with VersaWorks operation or are not prepared to configure dedicated settings, you do not have to configure the Queue Properties settings. You can configure Settings for each print data entry to print with the same settings as if you had configured the Queue Properties settings.
