A method for submitting a Job Description Format (JDF) print job to a printer using a USB flash drive or other portable storage device is described. An operator stores JDF files on the USB drive, and inserts it in the printer. The printer detects the USB drive, identifies the JDF files, and displays a list of the JDF files on a control panel of the printer for the operator to select a JDF file. The printer reads and interprets the selected JDF file to obtain job parameters, and displays the job parameters on the control panel. If desired, the operator modifies the job parameters using the control panel. The printer prints the print job according to the modified job parameters, and saves the modified job parameters back to the USB drive. Additional functions, such as updating audit information in the JDF file and displaying operator instructions, may be provided.
