Spoolcom Command Summary
If you enter commands on separate lines, each command must be complete. For
example, to enter the subcommands from the previous example on three separate lines,
you must repeat the command JOB and the parameter 1635 on each line:
Each subcommand can be considered a separate command. Subcommands are processed
left to right, and each subcommand is processed before the next subcommand is
executed. (The SPOOLER command with the DRAIN option is an exception. Spoolcom
puts the component in the drain state but does not wait for the drain to complete.)
Spoolcom Command Summary
Not all subcommands for each command are listed below. For complete information
about all Spoolcom commands, see the Spooler Utilities Reference Manual.
