Setting the User Name and Account ID

There are four Job Account Modes:

•

Tab Mode

•

Popup Mode

•

Hide Mode

•

[Not supported] Mode

Decide which mode you wish to use.

Tab Mode

In this mode, the tab for setting the User Name and Job Account ID will 
be displayed under Job Account Printer Driver Property. This mode 
should be selected when the computer is used by one person.

Popup Mode

In this mode, the dialog box for entering the User Name and Job 
Account ID will be displayed every time printing is run. A printer client 
enters their assigned User Name and Account ID to print. This mode is 
useful if several people share the same computer.
