Cloning
Cloning allows you to copy the settings and web generated scan templates of one device and transfer
them to other devices operating with the same version of system software. Depending on the optional
features installed on the device, groups of settings can be cloned. For example, scan settings will be
available for cloning only if the Workflow Scanning optional feature is already installed on the source
device.
After selecting the settings to be cloned, a configuration cloning file is created and saved with the
extension .dlm (downloadable module).
The configuration cloning file can then be submitted to other devices using Internet Services via a web
browser. The settings are transferred and applied to the recipient device.
Note: Optional features must be installed on the recipient device in order to accept cloned
settings. It is not possible to install an optional feature (for example, Workflow Scanning or E-mail)
through the process of cloning.
The cloning feature creates a .dlm file script that can be used to configure other devices. All
devices must have the same version of software for the .dlm file to be accepted.
