I have been saving my work using the Jobs tab. But when I open one, I am missing the images. What do I need to do to show the images I need to reprint the image.

This is easy and yet complex.

Saving your work sounds like you are saving the images and placement and all elements of the job.
When you save, Qimage asks if you want to save the images too.
Providing you clicked the "J" button at the bottom of the screen (See screen snap)
Then it will save as a job and ask if you want to save _images too
The other consideration is that the images involved have to be located where they were when you saved the job.
If I save a job with 8 images located on my C drive, they have to be there when I want to get them back by RECALL a job.
If those images were on my D drive, then JOB SAVE, saves the location as such.

If you are saving a printed job::::
You are saving jobs using the Jobs Tab, That's fine, but there is an easier way.
See screen snap and make sure your auto job saving is on.
Qimage auto saved the entire job as a complete job  including print paper, sizes, settings etc.
You can repeat the printing job easily.
Just click the button as seen in last screen snap.
Holler if I need to clarify.

Just to add a little more information to Fred's reply -

When you recall a Job, either  a named saved Job or an Auto saved Job, a preview of the images appear at the bottom right of the window, multiple images are each shown for a second. See first screen shot below.
If the files have been moved from the original location (or been deleted), the preview is blank BUT the record of their original location is shown, see the bottom row of data on the second screen shot.
There are some ways of recovering this situation. The best is to place the images in their original location.
You can load the job and you get templates shown on the page(s) as seen on the third screen shot. Open the image folder in the new location and drag across to the templates if you can remember the sizes used for each image - they should be in sequence with the pages.
The other alternative is to edit file paths of the saved job in QU App data - that's a little more complex though!
