Abstract

In a shared users printing system, with an electronic printer for printing print jobs of respective different plural users, with a printer mailboxsystem for receiving the print jobs in multiple mailbox bins of a limited sheet capacity, and a sheet distribution system for automatically directing into different individual mailbox bins assigned to different users their respective print jobs, with at least the initial sheets of a particular user directed to a selected first mailbox bin, a control system controls the sheet distribution system in a job splitting program in accordance with the maximum sheet stacking capacity of the first bin to divert subsequent printed sheets being printed for that user which would exceed the maximum capacity to at least one other bin and in coordination therewith automatically prints and inserts a special banner sheet as the last sheet inserted into the first bin, as the top sheet, with a readable indication that the subsequent printed sheets for that user are being so diverted to other bin(s), and indicating their locations. The banner sheets are only printed for such job splitting, and not for normal unsplit print jobs. Another special banner sheet is automatically printed and inserted into the other bin with the diverted subsequent printed sheets in a position to identify them. The otherbin may be a higher sheet stacking capacity overflow tray which is commonly shared by plural users.
