Jobs that require additional resources, like media, are placedin an ineligible state awaiting resource availability. ResourceBased Scheduling optimizes the utilization of the printer.First In/First Out (FIFO) printingWorkflow is referred to as FIFO when jobs are printed in the sameorder in which they are received.
