11 Programming Tips for Using PJL Note Note Introduction When using most printer languages, there is usually more than one way to perform a certain printing function. PJL is no exception. Properly formed PJL jobs provide the developer with the desired features while eliminating glitches. This chapter provides tips for creating efficient PJL jobs that eliminate potential problems. Improperly coded print jobs may work fine in a single-computer/ single-printer environment running only one application, but cause problems in a multi-application or shared network environment. The first part of this chapter categorizes PJL applications into three general types, and provides guidance and examples for each type. The remainder of the chapter provides hints for handling specific situations, including using status readback in a multi-user system. For information about products newer than those included in this book, see the Printer Job Language Technical Reference Addendum, which includes product-specific information about newer products, as well as commands and variables added to PJL to support these newer products.
