Abstract
A printer dynamic job recovery operation in an electronic reprographic system includes automatic detection of a printed sheet having an image thereon with a relative loss of integrity. Specified sheets are automatically purged to a specified location in response to such detection. The purging can begin at the first detected sheet or up to three sheets in advance of the detected sheet. Job recovery for job completion can be initiated immediately without cycling down the printer.
