Cloning

Cloning allows you to save your current printer settings to a file to use as a backup and restore file for
your printer. You can also use a clone file to copy your printer settings to other printers.
• To view all installation policies, click Security Installation Policy.
• To restrict installation to administrators, click Restrict Installation, then click OK.
Notes:
• If you are using a clone file to copy your printer settings to another printer, ensure that both
printers are the same model and have the same version of software installed.
• If FIPS 140-2 mode is enabled, you cannot install a clone file.
