Creating a Network Job Separator
If your printer is connected to a network through a PC and the PC is
acting as a print server managing the printing of shared network files,
then your system administrator must create a job separator and
associate it with a print job queue. Different network environments
have different procedures for creating the job separator, such as
initialization sequences, custom banner pages, print job headers, or
print job trailers. The print server does not necessarily send multiple
print jobs to the printer in the order that you queued them to the
printer. The network job separator is accessed with each print job, so
this ensures that network job separation is enforced. See
