Make shared account PIN/code visible

When this option is active, the purpose of the shared account PIN is changed. Usually the PIN is equivalent to a password, and can be required before a user is able to charge to a shared account. When this setting is active, the PIN is treated as a 'code' instead; that is, a unique identifier for a given shared account. For example, an organization dealing with projects might allocate a shared account the project code 123.

When this option is active it has several effects throughout PaperCut NG, including:

To activate this option:

Apply to all documents in queue

This option appears at the bottom of both the standard and advanced account selection popups. When checked, the settings being applied to the current print job will be applied to all waiting jobs automatically. The text will let you know how many jobs this will affect (e.g. "Jobs: 5").

This setting is useful when printing a batch of documents for the same purpose. For example, when printing a letter, diagram and spreadsheet for a client, the client account can be selected on the account selection popup along with any other appropriate settings, and the settings will be applied to all three jobs. This saves the time taken to apply the settings for each job.

Changing the time after which jobs are deleted when awaiting popup response

If a user does not respond to the account selection popup after a defined time, their print job will be automatically deleted. This is to prevent a buildup of old jobs in the print queue. For more information see the section called “User Client Options”.
