Search for jobs

Search for and locate jobs on a connected Fiery server using search parameters, such as job title, user or date.

The Search function allows you to quickly locate jobs on the currently selected Fiery server. It is part of the Job Center tool bar and applies to the jobs in the current view. Search for jobs in the Held, Printed, Archived, Processing, Printing, or All Jobs queues.

You can search for jobs doing one of the following:
  • Simple job search - To do a basic search of the content for all the columns in the current view, even if the columns are not visible on screen (because of the scroll bar), use the Search field. For example, if you type “Letter,” you can find jobs that have the word “Letter” in the job title, and also jobs that have “Letter” as part of the media name in the Output paper size column.

  • Advanced job search - To search by multiple criteria (columns) simultaneously, click the arrow next to the filters above the column headers, and specify the search criteria.

Simple job search

You can use the Search field in any view to find jobs. When you switch from one view to another, the previous search criteria are cleared.

  1. Type your search criteria in the Search field located above the Job Center toolbar icons.
  2. Press Enter or click the magnifying glass icon (Search icon) to locate the jobs that meet the specified search criteria.

    The typed text is not case-sensitive.

    The search for the specified value is conducted across all the columns in the current view, even if the columns are not visible on screen (because of the scroll bar).

  3. After you have executed a search, you can clear the current search criteria by clicking Clear or switching to another view. This allows you to search by different criteria.
