Just an aside - Apple is reducing the amount of info shoved in here. Newer
versions of the driver won't give the file name as too often the title
alone can give away confidential info. Consider seeing a printjob entitled
"Layoff list" in the print queue, or worse yet, "<name X> layoff letter"
followed by "<name Y> layoff letter"...
I think you will continue to get the username and the system name.
Take care,
Bill
