Job Name; Job Notification Options - HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 Reference

Job Name

Use the Job Name options to specify a name to identify the job at the product control panel. The
following are the Job Name settings:
<Automatic> This option, which is the default selection, automatically generates the job name
●
that is 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 Custom,
●
the text field below the option becomes available. 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.
The Job Name field can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z
(uppercase or lowercase) and 0 through 9 so that the name can appear on the product control-panel
display. 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
key is pressed or another control is selected), an empty string is replaced with <Automatic>. The
Tab
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 product
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 + (1-99). After you create the
print job name, or when one is created automatically, the product software assigns a number between
1 and 99 to the end of the print job name to make the name unique. Select Replace Existing File if
you always want the product software to overwrite an existing print job with the same print job name.

Job Notification Options

Clicking a Job Storage Mode selection causes the User Name and Job Name options to
become available. The Display Job ID when printing check box is selected by default. The
Display Job ID when printing option causes a pop-up dialog box to appear when the job-storage
print job is printed. The dialog box shows the user name and job name that are associated with the
stored print job, as well as the printer name, port, and location.
