Print Job Manager

Print Job Manager (PJM) is the graphical interface for selecting the destination printer and its available job options. Launch it from an application configured to use BrightQ printing, or directly from a terminal:

Print Job Manager showing printer selection, page selection, copies, collation, and job priority.

Common controls include choosing a printer, changing the user’s default printer, selecting pages, specifying copies and collation, and adjusting device-specific settings.

Job properties

Tab	Typical settings
General	Media, paper source, paper type, orientation, duplex, banners and pages per sheet.
Status	Device status indicators and reported warnings.
Layout	N-up layout and page borders.
Margins	Custom margins for text and image files.
Image	Brightness, hue, saturation, gamma, scaling, and image position.
Text	Characters/lines per inch, columns and syntax highlighting.
HP-GL/2	Monochrome pen, fit to page and pen width.
Printer-specific	Features defined by the installed driver and selected model.

Some tabs or options appear only for supported file formats and drivers. Raw/unfiltered queues skip processing, so job properties will not necessarily affect the output.

Printer-specific properties
