This looks like a quoting problem. I use the tcsh shell on Linux, and the 
following command worked for me:

condor_status -const 'JobId == "2307.0"'

You need quotes around the job id because it's a string, not a number.

You are apparently using the command shell in Windows. While I'm not expert 
on Windows, I got the following command to work:

condor_status -const "JobId == \"2307.0\""

That is, I put double-quotes around the expression, and I put \" around the 
job id itself.
