Abstract
The present subject matter discloses processing documents for printing. In an example implementation, a print preview of a plurality of documents to be printed by an image forming system is generated. The plurality of documents is assigning to at least one print job bucket. Each print job bucket is indicative of a print job for documents assigned to a respective print job bucket. A set of print job attributes is assigned to each print job bucket. The set of print job attributes is indicative of print settings for printing documents associated with a respective print job bucket.
Claims15
A method of processing documents for printing, comprising:
- generating a print preview of a plurality of documents to be printed by an image forming system;
- assigning the plurality of documents to at least one print job bucket, wherein each print job bucket is indicative of a print job for documents assigned to a respective print job bucket;
- and
- assigning a set of print job attributes to each print job bucket, wherein the set of print job attributes is indicative of print settings for printing documents associated with a respective print job bucket.
An image forming system comprising:
- a display unit;
- and
- a print job manager for processing of documents to be printed by the image forming system, the print job manager to:
- generate, at the display unit, a print preview of a plurality of documents to be printed by the image forming system;
- assign, based on a first set of user inputs, the plurality of documents to at least one print job bucket, wherein each print job bucket is indicative of a print job for documents assigned to a respective print job bucket;
- and
- assign, based on a second set of user inputs, a set of print job attributes to each print job bucket, wherein the set of print job attributes is indicative of print settings for printing documents associated with a respective print job bucket.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-readable instructions, the computer-readable instructions for processing of documents to be printed by an image forming system, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- generate a print preview of a plurality of documents to be printed b the image forming system;
- assign the plurality of documents to at least one print job bucket, wherein each print job bucket is indicative of a print job for documents assigned to a respective print job bucket;
- assign a set of print job attributes to each print job bucket, wherein the set of print job attributes is indicative of print settings for printing documents associated with a respective print job bucket;
- and
- assign a set of print finish attributes to each print job bucket, after the set of print job attributes is assigned to each print job bucket, wherein the set of print finish attributes is indicative of finishing settings for implementing finishing operations on the documents associated with a respective print job bucket.
