Setting priority for hopped jobs
When you set up a job for queue hopping, you can specify the priority for the job
in the new queue. If you don't specify a new priority, the job keeps the priority
number from its submission queue.
If you use different guidelines for choosing the values for priority
between the two queues, make sure to specify a new priority value for the job in the
destination queue.
For information about setting the job's priority within the submission queue, see
Setting job priority.
