boolean	isJobInProgress() Used to detect whether stopJob() needs to be closed.
void	startJob(java.lang.String jobFilename) This is a generic way to ask the underlying device implementation to start a job.
void	stopJob() Called to tell the postprocessing system to close a job.

Method Detail

startJob

void startJob(java.lang.String jobFilename)
              throws java.io.IOException
