More Information
Summary:In addition to an update license related to a contract period of an application, a license server issues an installation license for configuring the application and an extension installation license. When an image forming apparatus has received the installation license from the license server, the application can be used as long as the current date is within a usage period for carrying out the configuration task. If the current date is past that period, a license is acquired from the license server. The acquired license is an update license in the case where the update license is valid, and is an extension installation license in other cases.
