The pauseatz plugin uses the 'M0' command. Which seems to be implemented https://github.com/Printrbot/Marlin/blob/printrbot-prod/Marlin/Marlin_main.cpp#L1596 as well.

The pause plugin currently doesn't work correctly with USB style printing. Sorry.
(This is due to the fact that pause in USB printing bugs out)

Ahhh. I notice there are quite a few plugins which do a similar job.. Are there any others which would work?
They (other cura plugins) probably all use the M0 command.
I think your question is more a printrbot question - see if there is another command (e.g. M1 which I think is also pause) that would work better for the printrbot. Does the printrbot have any kind of control panel? I think repetier might be able to *not* send the M0 and instead stop sending commands and you can tell repetier to continue sending gcodes. Cura I don't think knows how to do that.

I have found a solution.. Whilst the M0 or M1 commands cause the Printrbot to pause.. There is no way to resume.
So I am using CURA to slice and I have modified the "Pause At Z" plugin to use the "@pause" command, rather than M0.. And am saving the output.
Then I am using Repetier to load and print the GCODE file..
Repetier prints this and at the "@pause" point it give a nice big pop-up offering you the ability to 'resume'. But it seems that Repetier also does this on the fly.. So you can hit Pause at any point.. Move the head/bed.. Change Filament and resume.
I am really happy with the results.. But it would still be nice to have the functionality built into CURA.
Apparantly M226 is the Printrbot command to pause.. But I guess the software would have to understand this and give the option to "resume" after.
But if I just have to live with a CURA/Repetier hybrid for multi-colour prints, I can't really complain.

I'm not sure it works on others printers that don't have to pause option on their control panel (does the printrbot have this?)
On the UM2 if i remember well resuming the print was done by just clicking the button but i only used it once or twice quite some time ago...
