Overview

This section explains about managing a large number of
scanners in a unified manner by providing the following
capabilities.

z

Simultaneously update settings for multiple scanners and their
drivers.
Because there is no need to update each scanner one by one, a
significant reduction is achieved in the time required to update a large
number of scanners.

z

Monitor scanners to keep track of consumable parts that need
replacing, errors that have occurred, and maintenance that is needed.
The operating status of scanners can be checked easily.

To enable the above functions, "Scanner Central Admin" is
required which consists of four applications bundled with this
product:

z

Scanner Central Admin Server
Install this application in the main computer that is used for the
centralized management of scanners.
By registering scanners on the Scanner Central Admin Server, you
can build a system to run a unified management for all scanners.

z

Scanner Central Admin Console
Install this application in a computer to upload update modules and to
monitor the operating status of the scanners.
The administrators can perform these tasks from the Scanner Central
Admin Console window, where they can also check the alerts for
consumable replacement and errors sent from the scanners.

z

Scanner Central Admin Agent
Install this application in a computer connected to a scanner.
It allows scanners to link with the Scanner Central Admin Server.
Linking with the Scanner Central Admin Server will enable you to
apply updates on scanner settings, and the scanner can also send
alerts on consumable replacement and errors.

z

SCAModuleCreator
Use this application to create update modules to upload onto the
Scanner Central Admin Server.
It is only required for creating update modules.

For more details about the centralized management of
scanners, refer to the Scanner Central Admin User's Guide.
