You can print a file from the File
Manager window by dragging and dropping it on the Print Manager icon
or dropping the object directly into the Print Manager Printer Jobs
window as shown in .
Once the file object has been dropped into the Print Jobs window,
another window will be displayed in which you can:
- Designate an alternative printer to
print the file
- Designate the number of copies of
the file to be printed
- Set a banner title (which will be
displayed in the Print Manager window alongside the print object)
- Select specific pages to print
- Designate which UNIX print command
options should be used as an alternative to the default print
command.
Once the Print button is selected, the
file will be sent to the appropriate printer queue.
Displaying the Banner Page Title
When a banner page title has been entered for a print request, that
text will be displayed in the Print Manager window. The name of the
user who submitted the print request will be displayed below the
banner text. 
Canceling a Print Request
To cancel a print request, you must first select the Print Manager
display object corresponding to that print request. Once the object
has been selected, use the Selected menu Cancel option. You will be
asked to confirm that you want to have the print request cancelled, as
shown in .
Again, you can only cancel your own print requests. If you attempt to
cancel another user's print job from the Print Manager, the print job
will reappear in the printer queue.
