Configuring User Prompts
You can customize accounting prompts. An accounting prompt is the text that prompts users to enter
accounting information at the control panel. You can enable up to two prompts, as your validation server
requires. For example, if your company uses a unique numeric identifier for each department, you can
use that number as the accounting code. Then, you can customize the prompt text to ask users for a
Department ID Code, rather than a User ID or Account ID.
Notes:
•
Not all options listed are supported on all printers. Some options apply only to a specific printer
model, configuration, operating system, or driver type.
•
When prompts are turned off, jobs that do not contain an accounting ID are tracked with a
generic code.
