5.3 Releasing a Print Job in the Holding State

When a print job is in the Holding state, you must release it for it to print.

The user can put a job in the Holding state using the PRINT/AFTER or

PRINT/HOLD command. The user or system operator can put a print job in

the Holding state using the SET ENTRY/HOLD command.

Use the SET ENTRY/RELEASE command to release the print job to be

printed. You must specify the job number in the SET ENTRY command. This

command does not require privileges if you are releasing a print job that you

submitted. Privileges are required to release another user’s print jobs.

For example:

$ SET ENTRY/RELEASE 569

In this example, print job 569 was in the Holding state and was released for

printing.

5.4 Requeuing Print Jobs

You can change the print queue for one or more print jobs, as described in the

following sections.

5.4.1 Requeuing Pending Print Jobs

You can requeue a print job that has not started printing using the SET

ENTRY/REQUEUE command. Without privileges, you can requeue your jobs.

With privileges, you can requeue any print job that has not started printing.

You must supply the job entry number with the SET ENTRY command. The

/REQUEUE qualiﬁer requires the name of the new print queue. For example:

$ SET ENTRY/REQUEUE=POSTSCRIPT$DUPLEX 596

This command changes the print queue for job 596. The print job is sent to the

POSTSCRIPT$DUPLEX queue.
