Systems and methods relate generally to job handling by an information handling system. In an example method thereof, a timeout mode is provided for a job to be processed by the information processing system. A plurality of jobs including the job are queued in a buffer queue of the information processing system. The job is timed out. The job is moved down in the buffer queue in response to the timing out thereof. In an example of another method thereof, the job is canceled in response to the timing out thereof, rather than being moved down in the buffer queue.
