Integrated Mode

When Smart Job Cost Estimator is launched from Smart Print Controller, it runs in Integrated Mode.

When the application is launched directly, it runs in Standalone Mode.

The behavior of the application differs slightly between modes.

  • The jobs that are imported upon start-up are those that were highlighted in the Waiting Queue of Smart Print Controller.

  • A new set of jobs can be imported by highlighting different jobs and clicking the Smart Job Cost Estimator button again.

  • The media list in the Cost report dialog automatically selects the job's Target Media. This media is greyed out.

  • Estimation always includes the selected Target Media. The result is written back to SPC, where it is visible in the Job Details dialog, and is also shown in the Cost report dialog.

Removing a job from the job queue will not delete the corresponding job in the SPC Waiting Queue.
