ABSTRACT:
A method of interrupting a job currently in the process of being printed from a print queue of a multifunctional printing system with an interrupt job having its origin in one of a first service or a second service is provided. The job currently in the process of being printed includes a page boundary, a set boundary and a job boundary. Additionally, the first service includes a first input device disposed locally with respect to the multifunctional printing system and communicates with a first memory section having one or more jobs developed with the first input device, while the second service includes a second input device disposed remotely of the multifunctional printing system and communicates with a second memory section having one or more jobs developed with the second input device. The method includes selecting a job from one of a first memory section and the second memory section. The job is designated as an interrupt job and transmitted to the print queue. When the interrupt job is from the first memory section and a preselected condition is met, it is inserted at one of the page boundary and the set boundary. When the interrupt job is from the second memory, it is inserted into the print queue at the job boundary.
