JOB Command The JOB command informs the printer of the start of a PJL job and synchronizes the job and page status information. It also is used to specify which pages of a job are printed. Use the JOB/EOJ commands for spooling and related applications to monitor printing status, name a job, print portions of a job, or to mark job boundaries to keep the printer from treating a single print job as multiple jobs (for example, when printing a job with a banner page). Also, in jobs sent to those printers supporting the PASSWORD option, use a JOB command to specify the correct password. For LaserJet 4000 series printers, the JOB command can be used to display a control panel message while printing the job. Note The JOB and EOJ commands always are used in pairs. Do not use one without the other. Syntax: @PJL JOB [NAME = "job name"][START=first page] ~[END = last page][PASSWORD = number ] ~[DISPLAY = "display text"][] Parameters: Parameter NAME = "job name" START = first page END = last page PASSWORD = number DISPLAY="display text" Functional Range Roman-8 characters 33 thru 255, , 1 to 2,147,483,647 1 to 2,147,483,647 0 to 65,535 Roman-8 characters 33 thru 255, , Default N/A 1 Entire job 0 N/A NAME = "job name" - The command option NAME tags the print job with a job name.
