Share variables from a deployment job to a normal job AZURE PIPELINE

I’m traying to share a variable between a deploy job and a normal job in azure pipelines, when i try to print the variable im getting echo is off error.

Hey guys i´m having the next problem with azure pipelines

stages:

- stage: Stage
  jobs:
  - deployment: Staging
    displayName: Stage the WebApp
    environment: 
      name: 'Windows10'
      resourceName: Lxxxxxx
      resourceType: virtualMachine
    strategy:
      runOnce:
        deploy:
          steps:
          - powershell: echo "##vso[task.setvariable variable=myStageOutputVar;isOutput=true]variable"
            name: printvar

- stage: Swap
  dependsOn: Stage
  variables:
    myVarfromStage: $[ stageDependencies.Stage.Staging.outputs['Windows10.printvar.myStageOutputVar'] ]
  jobs:
  - deployment: Production
    displayName: Swap to production
    environment: 
      name: 'Windows10'
      resourceName: Lxxxxxx
      resourceType: virtualMachine
    strategy:
      runOnce:
        deploy:
          steps:
          - script: echo $(myVarfromStage)

and im getting the next log when running the pipeline

Starting: CmdLine

and if i want to do this between a deployment and a job how can i do it.

    Use job.task.variable format instead of environment.task.variable for the outputs section in Swap stage.(Examples: Support for output variables)

    - stage: Swap
  dependsOn: Stage
  variables:
    myVarfromStage: $[ stageDependencies.Stage.Staging.outputs['Staging.printvar.myStageOutputVar'] ]

    Result:
