Printer Queue pane
The Printer Queue pane displays all the printers available for printing (as set through the
"Printers pane" on page607), their status and the job queues associated with each printer.
This pane allows you to add or remove print jobs to the printer's queue; to pause and then
restart printing (at either the individual job level, or at the printer level); to reprint jobs: to print or
reprint selected page ranges and other common print production tasks.
This pane would be the main screen used by print operators to control production printing.
Note
Not all of the functionality on this pane will be available to all printers. Much of the Printer
Queue functionality has been specifically designed to work with IPDS printers and is
currently only available for IPDSprinters and output files.
Where such restrictions apply will be noted on this page.
Job Status
When a print job is being processed by the Print Manager the job is renamed to reflect the
current processing step. A new file extension is added to the job, and updated in real time, as
