This area allows you to enter a job name and provides an explanation of the job.

The following table describes the items displayed and the restrictions on the strings you can specify in this area:

No.	Displayed item name	Input format	Restrictions on the strings you can specify	Mandatory or optional	Default value
1	Job name	Text box	A 1- to 45-byte string. You can specify half-width alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), and multibyte characters.	Mandatory	None
