PrintFleet Printer DCA Printer DCA Settings in PrintFleet Optimizer Chapter 4 Printer DCA Settings in PrintFleet Optimizer The Printer DCA is one component of the PrintFleet Optimizer system. For this reason, some of the settings which affect the Printer DCA are located in the Administration area in PrintFleet Optimizer. Those settings are documented in the PrintFleet Optimizer User Guide, but are referenced here as well for your convenience. This chapter discusses: • Managing Printer DCA installations • Troubleshooting stale data issues • Providing technical support • Distributing software updates 4.1 Managing Printer DCA installations Generating PIN Codes for Printer DCA Each Printer DCA installation requires a PIN Code to activate to run. These PIN Codes can be generated and managed using PrintFleet Optimizer. To generate a PIN Code for Printer DCA: 1. On the Administration menu, select DCA Administration, and then click New DCA. 2. Select Version 4.0 or greater. 3. Select the appropriate group from the dropdown list or click Create New Group button. 4. Define the Printer DCA information: enter the DCA Name. Optionally, set an Expiry date by selecting the calendar button and selecting a date. 5. Click Create DCA. The Pending PIN Code is generated and displayed in the DCA Information page's General Information tab. The PIN Code can be emailed to an appropriate person via Send this PIN via email. Alternately, the PIN Code can be copied and pasted into the DCA Activation screen. This PIN Code remains visible in the General Information tab while the Printer DCA is in a Pending Activation status. Once this PIN Code is used to activate a Printer DCA client, the Printer DCA has an active status and the PIN Code will no longer be visible. 37
