Hi Mike,

I have a Epson P800 and an Epson WF3640 printer that I want to schedule unclog schedules for - The P800 at 7 day intervals and the WF3640 at 14 day intervals.
I set the P800 print job for 7 day intervals and the created a 2nd job for the WF3640 and set the interval for 14 days.
In the scheduler, it shows the two jobs I set up with the per job cycling tuning set to 7 days (P800) or 14 days (WF3640) when I set them up.

If I now exit the scheduler and come back in and I go to check on the times (and the last scheduled job before i closed the scheduler was the P800 and 7 day intervals), and it shows the P800 and 7 days. Fine now If while I'm in the scheduler I change from P800 to WF3640, the interval doesn't change it stays at 7 days and not 14 days as it was set up - WHY DOESN'T IT CHANGE TO THE SCHEDULED VALUE?

It sounds like you are changing the baseline schedule frequency and expecting it to apply to individual printers.  That's not how it works.

Up top set your baseline schedule to every 7 days.  Then on the bottom, select one of your printers and on the lower right, select On schedule - every 7 days.  Then select the other printer and in the lower right, select every 14 days.

Remember: the top (baseline) is the bus schedule - how often the bus arrives at the bus stop.  The bottom section is the "per job" tuning where you can set how often that job gets on the bus.

Regards,
Mike
