/CHARACTERISTICS=(characteristic[,...])

    Specifies the name or number of one or more characteristics to be
    associated with the job. Characteristics can refer to such things
    as color of ink. If you specify only one characteristic, you can
    omit the parentheses.

    A characteristic's number must range from 0 to 127. To see which
    characteristics have been defined for your system, use the SHOW
    QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command. To see which characteristics
    are associated with a particular queue, use the SHOW QUEUE/FULL
    command.

    A print job can be processed on an execution queue if the job's
    characteristics are a subset of the queue's characteristics.
    However, if any of the characteristics associated with the job
    are not associated with the queue, the job remains pending until
    one or more of the following occurs:

    o  The characteristics specified with the queue are changed
       to make the job's characteristics a subset of the
       queue's characteristics (using, for example, the SET
       QUEUE/CHARACTERISTICS command).

    o  The characteristics specified with the job are changed
       to make the job's characteristics a subset of the
       queue's characteristics (using, for example, the SET
       ENTRY/CHARACTERISTICS command).

    o  The job is moved to a queue on which all the job's
       characteristics have been specified (using, for example, the
       SET ENTRY/REQUEUE command).

    o  The job is deleted (using, for example, the DELETE/ENTRY
       command).
