Job separation commands The printer supports the PJL JOB and EOJ commands. When the printer receives a JOB command, the print timeout is multiplied by 10. When the printer receives a PJL EOJ command, the print timeout is reset to the user default. JOB command The host computer can use the JOB command to separate print data into various parts or jobs. The command signifies the start of a print job. Syntax: @PJL JOB [NAME = "job name"] [START = first page][END = last page] [PASSWORD = number] [LCREDSESSIONID Notes: • Only use this command with the EOJ command. • After receiving a JOB command, the printer does not process a UEL command as a PJL job boundary until it receives the corresponding EOJ. Instead, UELs occurring within a JOB and EOJ pair are processed as printer language resets (for example, PCL ESCE). Parameters: • Use the NAME parameter to assign a character string name to a particular job. The name may be any combination of printable characters, spaces, or horizontal tabs up to a maximum of 80 characters, spaces, or tabs.

The printer emulator discards pages of a job until the page specified by this parameter is reached. First page range is from 1 to 2,147,483,647. Omission of the START parameter causes the printer to start printing with page 1 of the job. • Use the END parameter with the START parameter to skip the printing of a particular portion of the job. The printer emulator discards all pages of a job after the last page of the print job. The specification of the last page is relative to page 1 of the print job and its range is from 1 to 2,147,483,647. Omission of the END parameter causes the printer to print all pages to the end of the job. • Use the PASSWORD parameter to control which jobs and users are allowed to modify the printer default or NVRAM variables.

Syntax:

Notes:
•
The
words
parameter can be any combination of printable characters, spaces, and horizontal tabs.
•
The

Job separation commands
The printer supports the PJL JOB and EOJ commands. When the printer receives a JOB command, the print
timeout is multiplied by 10. When the printer receives a PJL EOJ command, the print timeout is reset to the user
default.
JOB command
The host computer can use the JOB command to separate print data into various parts or jobs. The command
signifies the start of a print job.
Syntax:
@PJL JOB [NAME = “job name”] [START = first page][END = last page] [PASSWORD = number] [LCREDSESSIONID
Notes:
•
Only use this command with the EOJ command.
•
After receiving a JOB command, the printer does not process a UEL command as a PJL job boundary
until it receives the corresponding EOJ. Instead, UELs occurring within a JOB and EOJ pair are
processed as printer language resets (for example, PCL ESCE).
Parameters:
•
Use the
NAME
parameter to assign a character string name to a particular job. The name may be any
combination of printable characters, spaces, or horizontal tabs up to a maximum of 80 characters, spaces,
or tabs. Enclose
job name
in double quotes as indicated by the command syntax.
•
Use the
START
parameter with the
END
parameter to skip the printing of a particular portion of the job. The
printer emulator discards pages of a job until the page specified by this parameter is reached. First page
range is from 1 to 2,147,483,647. Omission of the
START
parameter causes the printer to start printing with
page 1 of the job.
•
Use the
END
parameter with the
START
parameter to skip the printing of a particular portion of the job. The
printer emulator discards all pages of a job after the last page of the print job. The specification of the last
page is relative to page 1 of the print job and its range is from 1 to 2,147,483,647. Omission of the
END
parameter causes the printer to print all pages to the end of the job.
•
Use the
PASSWORD
parameter to control which jobs and users are allowed to modify the printer default or
NVRAM variables.
EOJ command
The EOJ command signifies the end of a print job.
Syntax:
@PJL EOJ [NAME="job name"][<CR>]<LF>
