Decisions to make before creating your JSL
Special features
You also want to determine the following:
•
Will you include operator information, such as routing sheets or messages displayed?
•
Will you select paper trays?
•
What structure will appear on the printed page? For example, a letter or a large form
may require an entire page but, if smaller forms are usable, you may want to print two
or even four on a page.
Will you use dynamic job descriptor entries (DJDEs) to change the application on a page
or report basis?
Interactions between JSLs, catalogs, and jobs
You will also want to consider the interactions, similarities, and differences between various
JSLs, catalogs, and jobs:
•
What characteristics are used globally, if any, for all of the applications at your site? For
example, do all jobs use the same host, format, paper size, page orientation, ink cata-
log, block or record length, test criteria, DJDEs, error responses, accounting require-
ments, fonts, or forms?
•
What names will you call the JSL and catalogs or individual jobs within the JSL? Use
names that will be meaningful to you and others who may use the application.
