The advanced hybrid storage feature uses additional storage locations for print jobs without allowing them to move out of the customer network. This ensures that the user's print job remains within the network while being stored in locations outside their workstation.

This feature is designed to ensure high availability of print jobs, even when the workstation from which the job is submitted is offline. Although the cloud server stores metadata like the job location, the actual print job is stored in a hybrid storage environment.

Administrators can choose to create one to three additional replicas of their print job. However, they cannot select the specific device where the job is stored.

To ensure higher availability, the job is stored in alternate locations equal to the number of copies selected in the organization settings.

During a print release, the printer first checks the primary storage location (submission workstation) for the print jobs.

If the primary location is unreachable, it then checks the alternate locations. When the print job is successfully released, it is removed from all storage devices.
