imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C5850i How to set department code

[DanGreen]

Canon iR-ADV C5850 - Windows ARM64 - Snapdragon

Hi,

I'm looking for a workaround to print from the above system to the referenced printer. Specifically the problem seems to be setting the Dept. code - the Windows default PCL driver doesn't off the opportunity to set these details. I see Windows are moving to WPP printers so perhaps they'll fix it - printer manufacturers haven't fixed anything in 30 years.

Yeah - I'm bored of hearing "Don't buy ARM laptops" or "Use this expensive third party solution" off the regional Canon people. Printer drivers are a joke in general, just one that's lasted 30 years and is wearing thin.
