Manage Jobs

From the control panel Jobs menu, you can view lists of active jobs, secure jobs, or completed jobs. You can interrupt, pause, or delete jobs that are printing. You can also view job progress or job details for a selected job.

A print job can be held by the printer when it is unable to complete the job. For example, if the printer needs attention, paper, or supplies. When the condition is resolved, the printer automatically resumes printing. When you send a Secure Print job, the job is held until you release it by entering a passcode at the control panel. 

From the Jobs window in the Embedded Web Server, you can view a list of active and saved print jobs.
