Backup and restore
Introduction
The system administrator can make a backup of the configuration of the print system. The system
administrator can use this backup a/o to restore the configuration.
• After a hardware failure, for example a crash of the hard disk.
• After installation of a new version of the software.
The system administrator can use the backup also for fleet management. The system
administrator configures one system and makes a backup. Then the system administrator
restores the backup at other systems.
Backup and restore are part of the system configuration. System configuration is available on the
System view and the Start view of the control panel.
You can also make a backup and restore a backup via the Settings Editor.
