It’s one of those Mail features that’s easy to miss. It’s called Redirect, and it lets you send emails you’ve received to others without actually forwarding them. This is convenient for emails you receive by mistake, or that should be sent to someone else to handle.

If you have a printer connected to your Mac, you can see the print jobs you currently have in the queue. And if you use a shared printer, this can be handy to confirm that you’ve sent your job to the printer and are still waiting your turn.

You can check to see if your item did, in fact, print successfully. You can then hunt down the coworker or family member who accidentally grabbed your printed items.

Here, we’ll show you how to view details of print jobs on your Mac, including currently printing jobs and completed jobs.
