scan results
To change the active user for Local Agent Management:

The Change Push Install Credentials dialog opens.
2. Use the Username, Password, and Domain boxes to specify
the credentials you want to use.

the new user name at the top of the window.
To revert to the current Printer DCA user:
• At the top of the Local Agent Management window click Current
User.
The Local Agent Management table displays one row for each IP
address scanned. If necessary, you can click a column heading to
sort the table by that column. Each row includes the following
information:
• IP Address—The IP address that was scanned.
• Status—The status of Local Agent for that IP address (either
Installed or Not Installed). If Local Agent is installed, the Status
column also displays the version number of the installed Local
Agent.
• Messages—Displays the brief message sent from Local Agent
to the Printer DCA regarding the most recent action you
performed, such as the last scan, install, or uninstall. The
message might indicate some limited error information, or a
timeout.
• Hostname—The hostname of the computer or device
associated with the IP address.
• Description—Local Agent Management will try to provide some
additional information. The information will vary depending on
what object is associated with the IP address. For example, if it
is a computer, Local Agent Management will try to determine the
operating system running on the computer, and display that
(such as Microsoft Windows). If it is a printer, it will display the
printer name. Not all IP addresses are associated with a specific
object, so in those cases it will simply say Unknown. If no
response was received from an IP address the description will
say Timed Out.
• Framework—For IP addresses associated with Local Agents,
Local Agent Management will try to determine and display the
version of the .NET framework that is running. Local Print Agent
requires .NET version 2 or higher in order to install and run
successfully. For this reason this column is color coded to
highlight potential problems: green indicates .NET version 2 or
higher, red indicates a .NET version below 2, and yellow
indicates an unknown .NET version.
