dialog box is closed, or the edit box loses focus, an empty string is replaced with
UNTITLED. In those languages for which UNTITLED cannot be translated without the
use of invalid characters, the driver will use a string of three dashes. The acceptable
characters for job name and user name vary for each operating system. The string must
be displayable on the printer control panel.
PIN
Private print jobs are secured by a 4-digit personal identification number (PIN), which you
can assign to a print job when you are using the Private Job feature. This number must
be entered in the printer control panel before it prints the job. You can choose a
predefined PIN or you can also create a custom PIN.
The box labeled PIN is usually inactive. Selecting Private Job or Stored Job along with
Require PIN to Print, activates the PIN box. The Stored Job/PIN coupling has a PIN
restriction of four ASCII numeric characters (ASCII 0-30 through 0-39). If you enter non-
numeric characters, they are removed immediately. If you enter more than four
characters, the characters past the fourth are truncated. The field temporarily allows
fewer than four digits in the string, but when the edit field loses focus, the zeroes pad the
left end until there are exactly four digits. The default initialized value for PIN is 0000 for
Private Job and Stored Job with Require PIN to Print checked.
Accessing Job Retention options when printing
You can access job retention options in the Destination tab of the printer driver.
NOTE: The printer driver installed on your computer must be
configured to use the job retention features.
1. Select Print from the software application. The Print dialog box appears.
2. Click Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.
3. Click on the Destination tab to display the destination options.
4. Select Job Retention from the drop-down menu under Destination Features.
5. Click Options. The Job Retention Options dialog box appears.
You can then select one of the job retention options described above by clicking on the
appropriate radio button.
NOTE: These instructions are specific to the Windows NT 4.0,
Windows 200, Windows 95 Windows 98, and Windows
Me environments using the latest available PCL 6 and
PCL 5e drivers. While the basic concepts of job retention
are the same for PostScript print jobs, there are
significant differences in the driver user interface. Also,
there are some limitations in naming and PIN selection.
