Note
If you do not need to burst pages of a printer’s output—for example, if
your printer uses cut sheet paper—avoid the burst page option. Flag
pages, or flag and trailer pages, are usually sufficient for identifying the
end of a job.
Table 14–2 describes the information found on job flag pages, file flag pages, job
trailer pages, and file trailer pages.
