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 is automatically displayed in the text field below the Windows User
Name options.
■ Custom. Use this option to type a custom name for the stored print job. When you click the
Custom option button, the text field below the option becomes available. The User Name field
can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0 through 9 because
the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to type a lowercase character,
it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an ASCII code of fewer than
32 or more than 126 characters, the character is removed from the edit field, along with all of the
characters that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any character beyond 16 is
truncated.
Job Name
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.
The Job Name field can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0
through 9 because the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to type a
lowercase character, it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an ASCII
code of fewer than 32 or more than 126 characters, the character is removed from the edit field,
along with all of the characters that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any character
beyond 16 is truncated.
When the dialog box is closed, or as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when the
Tab key is pressed or another control is selected), an empty string is replaced with Automatic. 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.
If Job Name Exists
When you store a print job, you can create a print job name or the printer software can assign one
automatically. If a print job with the same name already exists, the new print job will overwrite the
existing print job. To eliminate the chances of a new print job overwriting an old print job because
both have the same name, select Use Job Name + (1-999). After you create the print job name, or
when one is created automatically, the printer software assigns a number between 1 and 999 to the
end of the print job name to make the name unique. You can select Replace Existing File if you
always want the printer software to overwrite an existing print job with the same print job name.
