Job list

Displaying the Job list
The Job list page provides an overview of print, 3D print, copy, fax and scan jobs in the system, to view the job list, select Reports > Job list.
The Job list page includes default filters, action and view buttons, and the list of jobs.

-
showJobTitle: Disabled
-
show-job-user: Disabled
-
printJobAccessSafeMode: Enabled
Additionally value of property "web.databaseEditor.enabled" must set to false in configuration file c:/DispatcherParagon/management/conf/safeq.properties:
-
web.databaseEditor.enabled = false

-
All jobs/2D/3D - Select if you want to include 3D printing to your job list results
-
Printing – The job is being sent to the printer or is being printed. You can view detailed information about the job process. Typically, the job is sending data, waiting for the print to start, waiting for the print to be completed, or waiting for accounting.
-
Pending – The job is ready to be delivered to a printer. The job will be printed when previous jobs have been printed or it will wait for another printer to change to the "ready" status.
-
Accepted – The job was accepted by the spooler and has been added to the secured queue and is waiting for the secure release.
-
Printed – The job was successfully delivered to the printer and accounted.
-
Local Print – The print job is registered via local monitoring.
-
Scan – A registered and accounted scanned document.
-
Copied – A registered and accounted copy.
-
ReQueued – The job was queued for printing again.
-
Cancelled – The job was cancelled by the user (for example, the user selected "delete" at the terminal).
-
Cancelled at start – The job was cancelled during server restart.
-
Rejected – The job was denied due to insufficient credit or rights.
-
Printer error – The printer is not receiving jobs or an error occurred during printing that Dispatcher Paragon cannot resolve. In most cases, the exact reason for the error is provided.
-
Spooler error – Server spooler error (for instance, connection to the database failed or the job could not be read from the hard drive).
-
Security violation – The spooler detected an unauthorized job modification.
-
Deleted – The job was deleted from the spooler and cannot be restored or worked with.
-
Batch accounting – The job is part of a batch print.
-
Non-Dispatcher Paragon copy/print – Dispatcher Paragon detected a print job that is not part of the Dispatcher Paragon system. The Dispatcher Paragon system files such an event, marks it, and accounts it. (A non-Dispatcher Paragon copy/print should not happen, but because of the complexity of certain printing environments, it does occasionally occur.)
-
Outgoing fax - A registered and accounted outgoing fax job.
-
Incoming fax - A registered and accounted outgoing fax job.
-
Printed incoming fax - A registered and accounted outgoing fax job that was printed.
