Update Render Settings

Scenes imported from DAZ Studio will only render correctly with the appropriate values of some render settings. The lights in the scene must also satisfy some conditions. When you import a scene with the Daz Importer those values are normally updated automatically. However, if you append or link a Daz character into an existing scene, the render settings are not updated. And if you add a new light to the scene, it may not have sufficient settings. This tool force an update of all render and light settings to minimal values. Left: Light Paths set to Direct Light. Right: After Update Render Settings.

This shows an example how the render settings are updated.

TIP: Directly after you have started Blender, Update Render Settings and then save the startup file (File menu > Defaults > Save Startup File). In that way your render settings will always be sufficient to render DAZ scenes.
