If no metadata file is found, the from / to page settings from the job and the printer's properties
from the task configuration are used, with the job's settings overriding those of the printer where
applicable. If a metadata file is found, it is used to indicate which pages are printed and in
which order. Any other metadata is ignored.
Note

set by the user in the Resubmit interface are ignored.
On Error Tab
The On Error tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found in the" Task Properties Dialog"
