Abstract
An electronic reprographic printing system that allows the sending of messages with a print job from remote user workstations to a central reprographic printing machine. The messages can be displayed on a User Interface, such as a video monitor, and additionally printed on a break page of the print job. Also disclosed is a system for sending messages that is capable of faulting a print job until the reprographic system operator acknowledges receipt of the message. The various messages can instruct the system operator to use a particular medium for the print job, for example, or instruct the system operator how to finish (bind, wrap, etc.) a print job.
