The Prepress Portal system uses licensing to manage the number of users who can concurrently access the system. If one of your users is unable to log on to the Prepress Portal system, you may have exceeded your license for concurrent customer user logons.

Licensing is also used to enable special features, such as rendering engines and Kodak Matchprint Virtual technology. For example, until a color license is applied, color management features do not appear in the Prepress Portal user interface.

Use InSite License Manager to manage Prepress Portal licensing. It is installed on the Prepress Portal server. 

Note: After upgrading your standby enterprise server, it is necessary to apply your software license in order for your standby enterprise server to operate.
