12)Department Code
Enter the user’s department code if the system is managed

Note
• When the User Management setting is enabled, it is
used to manage a print job instead of the Department
Code Management setting. In this case, a user name
that has been entered to log in to your computer is used
for the authentication of the print job. Therefore, you do
not need to set your department code to the printer
driver but you must register your user name in advance.
If your user name is not registered, the print job is
processed as an invalid one according to the User
Authentication Enforcement setting. Also if a print job is
sent in RAW format, it is processed according to the
RAW Print Job setting. For more information about the
User Authentication Enforcement setting or the RAW
Print Job setting, refer to the TopAccess Guide.
• If the No Limit Black function is enabled, you do not have
to specify the department code when you print a
document with selecting [Black and White] in the [Color]
option in the [Basic] tab of the printer driver.
