Job History pane

The Job History pane displays a list of print jobs that have been processed through the Print Manager (except for those which have been explicitly removed).

How many print jobs are displayed (and the order of the display) is determined by the History settings in the Print Manager General Settings. The default is for the last 500 jobs to be displayed.

  • Filter: Use this search functionality to reduce the data-set displayed in the table.
    Type in a search word and then hit Enter to filter the table using the entered search word. For example, select "business" to display only those entries that feature the text "business".

    To clear the filtering, delete the contents of the Filter box and press Enter.
    The Filter applies to the entire data set, so if you were to search for the text "Med" the filter would return all those jobs that featured "Med" in the title, plus all those that in any hot folders that featured "Med", plus all jobs whose priority had been set to "Medium".

    The search is case insensitive. Thus a search for "med" would return "Medium", as well as "medium" values.
  • History Log: Displays details on jobs run through the Print Manager. The history can be sorted by either processing date or printer, by selecting the column title.
    • Date: The date and time when the job was started.
    • Printer: The name of the printer the job was printed to.
    • ID: The internal ID of the job.
    • Job: The name of the print spool file.
    • Path: The path from where the job was captured or added.
    • Pages: The pages printed and the total number of pages in the job.
    • Status: The final status of the job, such as Cancelled or Finished.
    • Priority: The job queue priority the job was printed with.

To the right of the table and also via right-mouse click context menu within the table, the following options are available:

  • Preview button / context menu option: This launches a Preview pane that displays what the print job looks like.
  • Copy selected items to clipboard button / Copy context menu option: Click to copy all messages to the clipboard to paste them in an external software.
  • Always select last log entry button / Tail context menu option: Click to toggle auto-scrolling so that the last message is always displayed when it appears.
  • Remove Job button / context menu option: Click to delete job from history.
