When a dispense completes and the operator presses the "Next" button one of two things will happen. If there are any further dispense requests in the queue, the next item in the queue will be presented to be dispensed. If there are no further items in the queue, the operator will be shown either the job list or formulation list, depending on the source of the last dispense.
Sometimes items may be added to the queue that are no longer needed. In this case there are two ways to remove them.
Removal via ColorPoint Console
On the dispense page the queue button shows how many items are currently in the queue and provides access to the queue page.
Press the View Queue button.
In the dispense queue page navigate to the items you wish to delete and then press the delete button. If you want to empty the queue completely, keep pressing the delete button until you are returned to the job or formulation list. This ensures that all items, even the item at position 0 (currently selected on the dispense page) are removed.
Removal via ColorPoint Manager
In ColorPoint Manager open the Dispense Queue using the button on the tool bar.
The delete button can be used to remove individual items from the queue. Note that the item currently selected to dispense is shown as on the head and cannot be deleted remotely. To delete this item always use the delete button on the console.
