Enforcing configurations

MVE runs a conformance check against the printer. If some settings are out of conformance, then MVE changes those settings on the printer. MVE runs a final conformance check after changing the settings. Updates that require the printer to reboot, such as firmware updates, may require a second enforcement to complete.

Before you begin, make sure that a configuration is assigned to the printer. For more information, see Assigning configurations to printers.

1. From the Printers menu, click Printer Listing.

2. Select one or more printers.

3. Click Configure > Enforce configurations.

Notes:

• If the printer is in an error state, then some settings may not be updated.
• For MVE to deploy firmware and solution files to a printer, the Firmware Updates function access control must be set to No Security. If security is applied, then the Firmware Updates function access control must use the same security template as the Remote Management function access control. For more information, see Deploying files to printers.
• An enforcement can be scheduled to occur regularly. For more information, see Creating a schedule.
