Abstract
Systems and methods for performing print job cancellation in an ESU model printer are provided. An embodiment can involve receiving, at an ESU of a printing device, a print job, wherein the print job includes a first portion. The first portion can be transmitted from the ESU to a main unit. The main unit can receive a print job cancel command corresponding to the received print job, wherein the cancel command is received after the first portion is transmitted to the main unit, but before the full print job has been transmitted. The main unit can then transmit a notification of the received cancel command to the ESU. The ESU can receive the notification of the received cancel command, and responsive to receiving the notification, terminate the transmission of the print job from the ESU to the main unit.
