Prerequisite: Before you can export a job, make sure that the job state is "Active".
In addition, you should have defined a custom "JobExport" sequence that matches your requirements (see Set up "JobExport" Sequence).
Proceed as follows to export print jobs with the "JobExport" sequence:
1.Go to the "Jobs" workspace and in the job list mark the job that you wish to export.
Note: You can also export several jobs at the same time using multiple selection.
However, if you use multiple selection, you cannot assign specific names to the exported ZIP archives. The ZIP file names are created automatically from the job names.
2.Right-click and select "Export" in the context-sensitive menu or select the "File > Export" menu command.
If a selected job is not "Active", a message displays, asking you whether this job is to be made active.
After that, the "Export Job" dialog opens.
3.In the "Target Folder" box, use "Browse" to define a folder where the ZIP archive will be stored. The "PTConfig" folder in the system environment of the Prinect server opens by default. However, you can also select a folder in the network neighborhood of the Prinect server.
4.In "Zip File" you can assign a custom name for the export archive file if you are going to export just one single job. The name of the exported print job is used if several jobs are exported at the same time or if no items are changed in this box.
5.In "Template for default settings" select the JobExport sequence that will be used for the export. You can edit the selected JobExport sequence if necessary with "Edit".
6.The selected JobExport template is set by default for the next export, if "Save selected template as default" is enabled.
7.The export starts and the dialog closes when you click "OK".
To follow the progress of export, you can go to "Queues". Look for the "JobImExporter" item in the "Engine" column.
