Various embodiments develop (and consume), along with rendered print job data, metadata that describes certain characteristics of the print job data. This metadata can be provided, along with the rendered data, from a client device to a print server and can allow the print server to ascertain the nature or context of the print job data. In some embodiments, the metadata can describe such things as page boundaries and state transition data. By ascertaining the nature or context of the print job data, the print server is able to intelligently act upon this information and, in at least some embodiments, implement additional print server features that would not be possible if only rendered data were sent to the print server.
