Department Codes
The department code portion of the Official Printer Name is exactly four characters in length and occupies the second through fifth character positions. If necessary, the department code is filled with trailing hyphen characters.
To assist users in finding the correct printer entries, existing abbreviations for departments listed below should be used whenever possible. If a new abbreviation needs to be created, please do not reuse one already defined. Each department should be consulted in case they already have an abbreviation they use.
