Abstract
System and methods for reconstructing a suspended print job. In one embodiment, a print controller receives a print job, and initiates construction of a sheet based on logical pages of the print job. Print controller determines a sheet number for the sheet that identifies a page number of one or more logical pages related to the construction of the sheet, an offset for the sheet that identifies an order of the sheet with respect to other sheets that share the sheet number. Print controller also assigns a sheet identifier to the sheet that includes the sheet number and the offset, and receives the sheet identifier in response to a determination to resume the print job from a suspended state. Print controller initiates processing for resuming the print job from the sheet based on the sheet number and the offset in the sheet identifier.
