Abstract: A printer configured to output stacks of printed print media on pallets comprises a print controller comprising a print job queue and/or a print job waiting room comprising print jobs. The print controller is configured to create and maintain a pallet stack object which represent a pallet with a stacked output. The stacked output is printed sheets related to at least one print job from the print job queue and/or a print job waiting room. The pallet stack object is displayed on dedicated user interface windows at a user interface connected to the printer. The user is allowed to compose and maintain by means of the user interface of the printer the stacked output for each pallet stack object created by the print controller.
