Refer to the Job Flow diagram above for the following work flow process.

1.Job: The job and the job ticket (if applicable) are received from the network by one of the protocol gateways.

2.Input queue: The Job Pool Manager (JPM) process transfers the job into the input queue. The virtual printer name and job attributes are attached to the job. The job remains in the Input Queue until it can be printed; for example, “held” and “faulted” jobs reside in the input queue.

3.Decomposer: The Job Chooser (DC process) reconciles the job attributes with the virtual printer attributes. Once the job is ready for print, the Job Chooser gives the job to the appropriate decomposer (ps_cdf process, pcl_cdf process).

4.Output queue: After decomposition, the job is stored in the output queue.

5.Printer: The marker (marker process) transfers the job from the Output Queue to the Image Output Terminal (IOT or
