Job Separation
Commands
Introduction
This chapter explains the JOB and EOJ commands. These
commands are used to describe the boundaries of a job, indicating
where the PJL job begins and ends. The commands can be used to
name a job, and they support a non-printing mode for printing
selected pages within a job. When used in combination with status
readback, the printer also can send status information regarding
when the printer starts processing the job and when the job is
complete. This chapter also describes PJL security and job
cancellation and their relationship to the JOB command.

well as commands and variables added to PJL to support these
newer products.
