fgl_report_setPrinterRequestingUserName

Specify name of the end user who submitted the print job.

Syntax

fgl_report_setPrinterRequestingUserName(
   requestingUserName STRING )
  1. requestingUserName - the user name.

Usage

Function to specify the name of the end user who submitted the print job.

A requesting user name is an arbitrary string defined by the client. The printer does not put the client-specific requestingUserName attribute into the print job's attribute set; rather, the printer puts in a jobOriginatingUserName attribute. This means that services which support specifying a username with this attribute should also report a jobOriginatingUserName in the job's attribute set. Note that many print services may have a way to independently authenticate the user name, and so may state support for a requesting user name, but in practice will then report the user name authenticated by the service rather than that specified by this attribute. Default: "not set" Setting this option reduces the set of usable printers to those matching it.
