Exporting and importing a configuration

You can export configuration settings into a text file, and then import the file to apply the settings to other printers.

  1. Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

    Note:  View the printer IP address on the printer home screen. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

  2. To export or import a configuration for one application, do the following:

    1. Click Settings > Apps > Apps Management.

    2. From the list of installed applications, click the name of the application you want to configure.

    3. Click Configure, and then do either of the following:

      • To export a configuration to a file, click Export, and then follow the instructions on the computer screen to save the configuration file.
      • Notes:

        • When saving the configuration file, you can type a unique file name or use the default name.
        • If a "JVM Out of Memory” error occurs, then repeat the export process until the configuration file is saved.
      • To import a configuration from a file, click Import, and then browse to the saved configuration file that was exported from a previously configured printer.
      • Notes:

        • Before importing the configuration file, you can choose to preview it first or load it directly.
        • If a timeout occurs and a blank screen appears, then refresh the Web browser, and then click Apply.
  3. To export or import a configuration for multiple applications, do the following:

    1. Click Settings > Import/Export.

    2. Do either of the following:

      • To export a configuration file, click Export Embedded Solutions Settings File, and then follow the instructions on the computer screen to save the configuration file.
      • To import a configuration file, do the following:
        1. Click Import Embedded Solutions Settings File > Choose File, and then browse to the saved configuration file that was exported from a previously configured printer.
