PJL
3-5
•
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/EOJ pair are processed as printer
language resets (for example, PCL
ESC
E).
Parameters:
NAME = "
job name
"
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
job name
must be
enclosed in double quotes, as indicated by the command syntax.
START =
first page
Use the START parameter in conjunction with the END parameter to skip the
printing of a particular portion of the job. The emulator discards pages of a job
until the page specified by this parameter is reached. The
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.
END =
last page
Use the END parameter in conjunction with the START parameter to skip the
printing of a particular portion of the job. The emulator discards all pages of a job
after the
last page
has been printed. The specification of
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.
PASSWORD =
number
A system administrator can control which jobs, and therefore which users, are
allowed to modify the printer default or NVRAM variables by declaring a PJL
password. With a PJL password declared, the PASSWORD parameter with the
correct PASSWORD number must be specified in order to modify the default
printer environment.
A PJL JOB command with the correct PASSWORD must be issued before any
PJL command can modify an NVRAM setting. The PJL EOJ command
terminates the job and disables any further modification of NVRAM. If a PJL
password is declared and the wrong PASSWORD number is specified on the
PJL JOB command, the printer will delay one half of a second before processing
the next command.
