发明名称 Delayed printing of print jobs requiring special resources
摘要 A print job requiring unavailable resources is held until the deficiency is remedied. The resource requirements (e.g. print media or printer configuration) of the print job are evaluated 30. The resource requirements are compared 32 to known available resources. Either standard resources are assumed or available resources for the printer are discovered. Responsive to a resource deficiency exposed by the comparison, the print job is communicated 40 to a printer with a command to hold the print job. Also responsive to the resource deficiency exposed by the comparison, instructions for remedying the resource deficiency are created 36 and the instructions are provided 38 to a remedy provider. The instructions are provided to the remedy provider either by printing the instructions or by displaying the instructions on the printer. The remedy provider remedies the resource deficiency and the printer processes the print job. Alternatively, the resource deficiency is communicated to the printer, the resource deficiency is monitored for a remedy, and responsive to the remedy of the resource deficiency, the print job is processed 42.
