Abstract
In a printing system and method, job data is distributed in segments to a plurality of downstream processors. The segments are processed in respective downstream processors to provide printable frames, which are stored in respective print queues that each supply one of a plurality of printheads. Printing is initiated. Prior to completion of the printing, a job halt request is received. Disable commands are transmitted to the downstream processors responsive to the job halt request. Acknowledgements of respective disable commands are sent from the downstream processors. The downstream processors are grouped following the sending of respective acknowledgements. The print queues are emptied using the grouped, multi-tasking downstream processors.
