Appendix B: Custom Naming Rules
If a file name is defined using a custom naming rule, and there is no barcode information or the barcode
information contains only unsupported characters, the custom naming rule is ignored.
The year, month, day, hour, minute, and second settings are not based on the time the input file is created
or the time the input file is saved in the hot folder.

* Synchronized with the system time
・ All name rules except for [COUNTER] can be used more than once in the same job profile.
・ All name rules should contain only upper-case characters.
・ The total supported length of a file name (folder path and name) is 247 characters. If the name exceeds
this limit, the file is automatically saved to the default settings destination path.
・ When creating a user-defined file name, do not use these characters:
< > : " / \ | ? * ¥
If the recognized information from the barcode ID contains any of these characters, they will not be
included in the file name.
