Default

Database name
Job.Priority

Usage notes:

  • RICOH ProcessDirector treats any job without a value for its Job priority property as the lowest priority. Any other job with a job-priority value, even if the value is 999, processes through each step before a job without a job-priority value.
  • RICOH ProcessDirector prints the value of this property in the Priority: field of the header sheet for the job.
  • Before setting the job priority, make sure that the printer is disabled at the time the schedule is made. Otherwise, the jobs are not printed in the order specified by the user.
  • Jobs that contain a JDF file must use a job priority value between 1 and 100. If you enter a value that exceeds 100, Ricoh ProcessDirector reverts the value to 100.
