Abstract

A print folder application that can be run on existing electronic reprographic systems. By using a print folder, users may select several jobs in the job file to be printed as a specified number of collated supersets with or without a common finishing selection. This can be accomplished without disturbing the individual jobs in the job file. Use of a print folder has the advantages of avoiding operator post-collation of sets of different jobs into supersets for distribution and the ability to get a uniform number of sets with uniform finishing characteristics of multiple jobs without editing the individual jobs.
