DCAs
You can check the status of a Printer DCA installation via Printer
DCA Listing page. Printer DCA information can be viewed or edited
at any time. A Printer DCA can also be deleted or set to inactive or
active. A new PIN Code can also be created for a Printer DCA
version 4.0 or greater.
Note When a Printer DCA expires, is deleted, or is set to
inactive, the next time that Printer DCA connects it
will effectively go into a state of hibernation. It will
not perform any further scans, or transmit any
other files, but will perform a status check once
every 24 hours. If a subsequent status check finds
that the Printer DCA is once again been set to an
active state, the Printer DCA will automatically exit
the hibernation state and resume normal
operation.
To check the status of a Printer DCA:
1. On the Administration menu, select DCA Administration.
2. In the DCA Listing page, the status of the Printer DCA will be
visible in the Status column:
• Pending Activation – PIN Code has not been used to activate
Printer DCA client.
• Active – Printer DCA has been activated using PIN Code.
• Inactive – the Printer DCA has been set to Inactive or has
expired.
To view Printer DCA information:
1. On the Administration menu, select DCA Administration.
2. Click on the Printer DCA name link for the Printer DCA you want
to view from the Data Collection Agent (DCA) Listing. The
DCA Information page's General Information tab is displayed for
the selected Printer DCA.
To edit an existing Printer DCA:
1. Click the Edit option beside the Printer DCA in the DCA Listing
page. Alternately, in the DCA Information page, click Edit.
2. Make changes to the DCA Name, Group, or Expiry Date fields,
and then click Save.
To delete an existing Printer DCA:
1. Click the Delete option beside the Printer DCA in the DCA
Listing page, or in the DCA Information page, click Delete.
2. A dialog box prompts you to confirm your wish to delete this
Printer DCA.
3. Click Confirm to complete the Printer DCA deletion, or Cancel
to abort the Printer DCA deletion. After deletion, files will not be
processed for the Printer DCA, but the Printer DCA will enter a
hibernation state. If you want to completely remove the Printer
DCA, you will need to uninstall it.
