Introduction to license management

Introduction

For certain applications your printer uses, you need to activate a license. A product license for the PlotWave 5000/5500 is always required. You can perform several actions for licenses:

Procedure

  1. View the currently active licenses.

    View which licenses you already have, and which you would like to have. You can make a list of new options you need and note down the license number. Your local representative needs the list of new options and the license number to create a new license file.

  2. Get the host id of your system.

    The host id is needed to create a new license file.

  3. Send the list of new options, the license number, and the host id to your local representative.

    Your local representative creates and delivers a new license file.

  4. Create a back-up of the current active licenses, if necessary.

    Save the current active licenses to do so.

  5. Activate the licenses.

    The license activation job guides you through the following steps.

    • 1. Locate the license file.

    • 2. Preview the new active licenses.

    • 3. Accept the end user license agreement.

    • 4. Finish the license activation job.

    • 5. Restart your system.
