Fields

This tab has the following fields. You can select settings to enable or disable by selecting the check box to the left of the setting.

Enable MFP Self-Registration

Enables or disables MFP self-registration. With this setting enabled, all MFPs register when connecting to the server.

Require Authentication for Device Registration

When enabled, users need to log on at a device before it is registered. If a device is not registered, a prompt appears at the device requiring a user name and password even if split login is enabled. When authentication is successful, the device is registered. If split login is enabled, users are not prompted for a password unless required for a shortcut. Clear this option if you do not want to require authentication to register a device.

Disable MFP Single-Sign-On without password

This option increases server security by disabling single-sign-on from MFPs. Certain MFPs support authentication with the server without a password when using other device authentication protocols such as proximity cards. Disabling this feature enhances the security of MFP-related Web services by preventing authentication without a password. Clear this option to enable users to log on to the MFP using single-sign-on. This option is cleared by default.

Display Confirmation Messages

Enables or disables confirmation messages to be sent from Tungsten TotalAgility to this MFP. Messages provide visual feedback to the user at the MFP front panel when each scanned transaction reaches the server, or if any problems are encountered.

Not all MFPs support display of confirmation messages. See the Overview section of the administrator's guide for your MFP to see if your MFP supports this feature.

Scan History Retention Period

The number of days to retain MFP scan history records. The records retained in history on the server are available to be displayed on MFP Scan History lists. Set the value to one of the following:

  • 1 or more: Retains records in history for the number of days you specify

  • 0: Deletes all history records

  • -1: Prevents history records from being deleted

Not all MFPs support a Scan History list.

Scan History Display Limit

The number of transactions to display on the Scan History list on each MFP (for MFP models that support the list). The maximum number is 50 and the default value is 20. The transactions are listed in descending order, with the most recent at the top. Pressing the Scan History button on any connected MFP contacts the server, so any change you make to this limit is effective immediately on the MFP.

Some MFPs may have a specific limit of fewer than 50 transactions. See the Help for the MFP Scan History for information about these limitations.

API Key

This key is used for the registration Web service used by MFPs. To protect your system, you may change this key as needed.
