The best way to manage your jobs is to create the jobs correctly in the first place. Quick Sets automatically attach pre-selected settings to your jobs. Because Quick Sets are chosen when the job is first created, creating custom Quick Sets to match your workflow is the best way to ensure your jobs are managed automatically and efficiently. See Quick Sets for more information.

Applying the appropriate view to your jobs can simplify the appearance of the main RIP-Queue window, especially if you have a lot of jobs.

 

To modify your view, select the printer you want to view from the [Show Jobs For:] option in the main RIP-Queue window. You can select [All Printers ]to show all the jobs, or choose [Selected Printer] to show all jobs associated with the printer you have selected in the active printers area.

To quickly search for a job, use the "Job Finder" that is in next to the [Show Jobs for:] in RIP-Queue. Type in the name or a key word for the job you are looking for. To clear the "Job Finder" and search for a new job, click the [X] mark.
