  5. Go to the Utility tab and click Open Printer Utility.

    If you do not see the Utility tab, contact the TechZone for assistance.

  7. Once you see the Printer Information popup, click OK to close it.
  8. In the "User Management" dropdown, select Department ID Management OR check the Use Department ID Management checkbox, whichever option is available to you.
