How to temporarily suppress interactive steps from a job

In the Start and Stop Options panel, select the checkmark Run job without any prompts. This lets you run such jobs in two ways, avoiding the need to create two jobs. If you plan to be at the computer as the job runs, de-select the checkmark. If you want to run the job without being present, select the checkmark. Then only automatic image enhancement will run, auto-zoning will replace manual zoning and proofing is skipped. In this case you must ensure that the input and saving file set names and locations are pre-defined.
