Specifying
overrides while a
job is printing
If you want to specify late binding overrides that will immediately
take effect on a job that is currently printing, do the following:
1. Click [Pause Printing] on the Print Services window to halt
printing.
2. Follow the procedure for specifying late binding attributes,
described in the previous section.
Example:
The following example illustrates a situation in which you might
want to use a late binding attribute on a job that is currently
printing:
As a large job starts to print, you notice that the printed sheets
are going to the sample tray. You know that the sample tray is
not large enough to accommodate the entire job. On the Queue
Properties window, you click the [Output] tab, then select a
stacker bin from the menu in the Output group box. You click the
[Override] check box, then click [OK] at the bottom of the Output
window.
When you resume printing, the output immediately starts going
to your selected stacker bin.
Hierarchy within a
job descriptor
library (JDL)
The following sample JSL for online printing contains three JDEs
or jobs. The VOLUME CODE parameter, which specifies the
encoding of the input data, appears in four places:
1. According to the system command level (or JDL) command
set, the default encoding of the input data is ASCII (VOLUME
CODE=ASCII).
2. According to the catalog command level, the encoding of the
input data is EBCDIC (VOLUME CODE=EBCDIC).
3. According to the commands for job 2, the encoding of the
input data is Printable EBCDIC (PEBCDIC). The PDL
command VOLUME CODE=PEBCDIC overrides both
catalog and system command level definitions.
4. In Job 3, the encoding of the input data is EBCDIC, because
the INCLUDE parameter of the JOB command specifies the
CATGRP catalog which, in turn, specifies EBCDIC in its
VOLUME command CODE parameter.
