JOB

JOB renames the current job name.

?&b#WJOB<sp>jobname

All characters are valid. For the job name the first 127 characters are used.

There is no default jobname.

TYPE

TYPE changes the type (device type) portion of the printer’s AppleTalk Name Binding Protocol type field.

?&b#WTYPE<sp>devicetype

Valid characters for the device type include 0-255 except for characters $00, “@” ($40), “:” ($3A), “*” ($2A), “=” ($3D), and $C5. The devicetype must contain at least one character, and only the first 31 characters are used. If an invalid character ($00 is not treated as an invalid character) is contained in the devicetype, the printer will ignore the escape sequence. If the printer encounters the NULL ($00) character in the devicetype, it uses the NULL character to terminate the device type. All the characters preceding the NULL will be used as the devicetype. If the device type is invalid then the printer’s type is not changed.

The default device type for PCL is “HP LaserJet 4” and for PostScript is “LaserWriter”.
