How to configure Print Agent to print reports in order

I don’t think so, but I could be wrong.

As far as I am aware, a single IFS Print Agent prints jobs in the order it receives them.  So in that case the control would need to be done on the IFS side itself.  You could also have situations where a user prints something interactively and a background job prints something else that process at different speeds before sending the job to the Print Agent, which may look like a bad order but in reality the Print Agent really handled them in order as it received.

Of course if you have multiple Print Agents for that send to the same printer then the results on the printer itself could be out of sequence order, but each Print Agent would have printed what it had sequentially.  A singe Print Agent may also listen to different locations/queues and if it get print jobs coming in from multiple sources then it would theoretically process them in order but it could look out of sync from an output perspective.  To avoid this you would need to limit it to just a single ‘processor’ (e.g don’t run multiple queue processors or file processors in the Print Agent, only run one of them)
