User Name

Use the User Name settings to help identify the job at the product control panel. The following are
the User Name settings:

Windows User Name. This option associates your Windows user name with the stored print job.
The Windows user name automatically appears in the text field below the User Name options.

Custom. Use this option to type a custom name for the stored print job. When you click the
Custom radio button, the text field below the option becomes available. The User Name field
can contain no more than 16 characters.

Job Name

Use the text box in the Job Name group box to specify a name to identify the job at the product
control panel. The Automatic option is the default selection. It uses a default job name for the stored
print job. The file name of the print job is used if it is available to the print driver. Otherwise, the
software program name or a time stamp is used for the job name. If you would like to enter a custom
name, select Custom and type the custom job name in the text box. The Job Name text box can
contain no more than 16 characters.

If Custom is selected but no job name is specified, as soon as the focus is removed from the control
(that is, when the

Tab

key is pressed or another control is selected), the empty string is replaced with

<Automatic>. In those languages for which <Automatic> cannot be translated without the use of
invalid characters, the driver uses a string of three dashes. The acceptable characters for job name
and user name vary for each operating system. The string must be of a length and type that can
appear on the product control-panel display.

Use the If Job Name Exists drop-down box to choose whether a duplicate job name should have a
number appended to it, or whether it should overwrite an existing job with the same name that has
already been sent to the printer.
