Current job list
The current job list is at the top of the dialog, and it is empty by default. When a printable task is added, it will be listed in this area. A print job has the following properties:

• Printable: you can use the Printable option in the Current job list to enable or disable the printing. When you add a print job to the list, the printable option is enabled by default. If you do not want to print the selected print job, but you want to keep it in the queue just disable this option. When you start the Print command all disabled print jobs will simply be skipped.
• Document: the document field of the selected print job shows the name of the document. You can rename it at any time.
• Printer name: the Printer name shows the name of the printer that will be used to print the selected print job. If you selected the Print to PDF option, you will see the Print to PDF text here.
• Filename: if you want to print into a PDF file, here you can find the name of the file and the path to access.
• Error report: if there is an error you will see the error report message in the Error report field.

Print preview
The Print preview shows the preview of the selected print job. The quality of the print preview is usually lower than the final result. It only gives information about the position of the printing area.

Print job information
The Print job information list shows information about the selected print job, such as the print size, orientation and scale of the printed drawing.
