# Manage stations and their printers in the BizPrint dashboard

Section: Manage

> See your stations, rename a station, choose what its app shows, copy its keys, see its printers, or delete a station in the BizPrint dashboard.

This page shows you how to view and change your [stations](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#station) in the [BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-dashboard). It is for merchants and staff who use the [BizPrint desktop app](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-desktop-app) or the [BizPrint Android app](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#bizprint-android-app) on a station. To make a new station, see [Create a station in the BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/create-a-station/).

## See your stations

1. Sign in to the BizPrint dashboard.
2. Click **Stations** in the menu. The **My Stations** list opens.

The list has a **Stations** column with each station’s name and a **Printers** column. The **Printers** number counts the [printers](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#printer) that the station reported the last time it connected. It does not show whether the station is connected right now. If you have no stations, the list says “There are no stations created yet”. Click the **+** at the top of the page to create one.

## Open a station

Click a station’s name in the **My Stations** list. The **Station** page opens. It has:

- A **Name** box.
- **Display on Station** (see [Choose what the station app shows](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/stations/#choose-what-the-station-app-shows)).
- The station’s [**Public Key** and **Secret Key**](https://docs.getbizprint.com/start-here/glossary/#public-key-and-secret-key).
- **Get BizPrint app** and **How to setup** buttons, which open the BizPrint quick start guide in a new tab.
- A **Printers** list.

## Rename a station

1. Open the station, as described in [Open a station](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/stations/#open-a-station).
2. Type the new name in the **Name** box.
3. Click **Update** next to **Name**.

The new name shows in the dashboard and is recorded in your Activity feed. See [Use the Activity feed and pin printers in the BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/activity/).

## Choose what the station app shows

This option applies only to the BizPrint desktop app. **Display on Station** controls what the desktop app on the station shows about your usage. The BizPrint Android app does not show these details. It has three choices:

- **Analytics and Plan details**
- **Station Analytics only**
- **No Analytics**

To change it:

1. Open the station.
2. Choose an option in **Display on Station**.
3. Click **Update** next to **Display on Station**.

If the option does not seem to change what the app shows, make sure the desktop app is up to date and that it is connected, then contact [BizPrint support](https://getbizprint.com/support/). This option only changes what the app displays. It does not change printing.

## Keys

The Public Key and Secret Key connect the BizPrint app to this station. Click the copy button next to a key to copy it. Treat the **Secret Key** like a password: do not email it, post it in a chat, or put it in a web page. Use these keys only to connect the BizPrint app. See [Keep your BizPrint Public Key and Secret Key safe](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/keys/).

## See a station’s printers

The **Printers** list on the **Station** page shows the printers the station has reported. A printer the station reported before stays in the list even when it is offline or no longer connected. If the station has never reported a printer, the list says “There are no active printers connected to this station yet”. Printers are never added in the dashboard. The BizPrint app on the station reports them. For help, see [Add a printer to the BizPrint desktop app](https://docs.getbizprint.com/set-up/desktop-add-printer/).

Click a printer’s name to open its **Print Jobs** page. See [View print jobs and their status in the BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/print-jobs/).

## Delete a station

Delete a station only if you no longer use it. A deleted station cannot be brought back.

1. Look at each printer on this station for paper and for printouts that are still coming out.
2. Check the status of recent jobs on each printer’s **Print Jobs** page.
3. Wait for the station to finish anything it is still printing.
4. Open the station.
5. Click the delete (bin) button at the top right of the **Station** page. You can also use the delete button at the end of the station’s row in **My Stations**.
6. Confirm when the dashboard asks “Are you sure you want to permanently delete this station?”.

Deleting a station also appears in your Activity feed. In print analytics, a deleted station is marked “This station was deleted.” See [View print analytics in the BizPrint dashboard](https://docs.getbizprint.com/manage/print-analytics/).
