Just a FYI for all, please someone correct me if I am wrong. Job Pipelining is present on the Phaser 840, found it, it works well, Thanks John for the info. Job Pipelining is not present on the Phaser 740 that I know of, it is not there. Asked a rep about it and got a strange look back but that was it.
