[For part I see ibid. 28, No. 11, 5363--5367 (2000; Zbl 0965.16022).] A group \(G\) is said to satisfy a group identity if there is a nontrivial word \(w\) in a free group on countable letters so that any homomorphism of the free group to the group \(G\) contains \(w\). In the paper under review the authors show that a prime ring \(R\) whose unit group satisfies a group identity and which is generated by its units is either a domain or a full matrix ring over a finite field. The same result is proved by \textit{T.-K. Lee} and \textit{C.-H. Liu} [Commun. Algebra 31, No. 7, 3305--3309 (2003; Zbl 1038.16019)].
