significantly decreases the time it takes for the Printer DCA to
complete a network scan.

selected from the Scan Profile list. For more information on
scan profiles, see "Managing scan profiles" on page 14.

The number of scan threads can be controlled using the Number of
scan threads box in the Miscellaneous area on the Advanced

system.
Printer Job Language is an additional method that can be used to
obtain information from devices connected to HP Jet Direct servers.
Warning Enabling PJL can result in print jobs being sent to
dot matrix and other old model or special use
printers. Using PJL will result in a limited amount of
information being collected from some devices
connected to HP JetDirect print servers.

The scan interval determines how often the Printer DCA will scan
the network. The default scan interval is 60 minutes.
It is generally not useful to set a scan interval for more than every
60 minutes. For example, new information is posted to PrintFleet
