Overwrite Job Name

Overwrite job name is an option to ensure that a saved print job is not replaced in printing system memory by a new job having the same job name. If a user sends two print jobs with the same user name and job name, the second job replaces the first job without any prompt. To prevent this, Overwrite job name can automatically change the job name by adding the date and time the job is sent. This feature also helps you to track when print jobs were sent from the computer.

The selected option applies to a job name with either Application defined or Custom selected. Overwrite job name options include:

Replace existing file

This option lets the current print job replace an existing job in printing system memory, if a job with the same user name and job name exists.

Use job name + date and time

This option adds the current date and time to the end of the job name, in the format: mmddyy hhmmss.

The previous print job with the same job name remains in the printing system.

You must select a job name to use with Job storage (e-MPS)features, so that you can find your job in job lists on the printing system’s operation panel. The selected job name is saved with the print job when the job is sent to printing system memory.

In the Job tab, select Job storage (e-MPS).

Under Job name, select a name:

Application defined

This option uses the name of the application document as the job name. For Microsoft Word or PowerPoint documents, selecting Don’t use application name removes the name of the application so that only the document name appears as the job name.

Custom

This option uses a unique name for each job. Type a name in the box, up to 79 characters.

Select an Overwrite job name option in case a job already exists in printing system memory with the same job name:

Replace existing file

If a job with the same user name and job name exists, the current print job replaces an existing job in printing system memory.

Use job name + date and time

This option adds the current date and time to the end of the job name, in the format:

mmddyy hhmmss

The previous print job with the same job name remains in the printing system memory.
