Print job
In computing, a print job is a file or set of files submitted to printer for processing. A printer receives these jobs as instructions on what to output. Each job acts as a single, queueable system object representing a document that must be rendered and transferred to a printer.
Jobs are typically identified by a unique ID and assigned to a specific destination, usually a printer. They include associated options such as media size, number of copies and priority. Print jobs are created on specific print queues and cannot be transferred between them.
A print job consists of several technical elements that manage its configuration and data:
The lifecycle of a print job is generally described in three stages:
In larger environments, print jobs may go through a centralized print server before reaching the printing destination. Some multifunction printers have local storage (such as a hard disk drive) to process and queue jobs before printing.
When disposing of old printers with local storage, one should keep in mind that confidential print jobs are potentially still stored unencrypted on the hard disk drive and can be undeleted.
