Job Name

Selecting a Job Storage option causes the Job Name group box to become available. Use the Job
Name
options to specify a name to identify the job at the control panel. The following are the Job
Name
settings:

Automatic. This option automatically generates the job name associated with 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.

Custom. Use this to type a custom job name for the stored print job. When you click the Custom
option button, the text field below the option becomes available.

If Job Name Exists. Use this drop-down menu to choose whether a duplicate job name should
have a number appended to it, or whether it should overwrite the existing job with the same name.

The Job Name field 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.
