The COMMENT command cannot wrap from line-to-line; comments longer
than one line require a separate COMMENT command for each line.
•
The COMMENT command is terminated by the line feed character (<LF>).
Job Separation Commands
Your 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. The
Waiting
message
appears on the printer control panel display or through MarkVision Professional until
an EOJ command is received or until the print timeout expires.
Your printer also supports the PASSWORD parameter for the PJL JOB command.
JOB Command
The host computer can use the JOB command to separate print data into various
parts or jobs. Specifically, the JOB command signifies to the printer the start of a print
job. Use the EOJ command to signify the end of a job. In addition, use the JOB/EOJ
pair to accomplish the following:
•
Provide a job name (the name displays on the printer control panel or through
MarkVision Professional).
•
Indicate which pages of the job should be printed.
•
Monitor the job status as it prints.
Syntax:
@PJL JOB [NAME = "
job name
"] [START =
first page
]
[END =
last page
] [PASSWORD =
number
][<CR>]<LF>
Notes:
•
The JOB command should only be used in conjunction with the EOJ
command.
