Implementation guide

To guide you through the implementation of our Printix Cloud Print Management Service, consider the below phases and examples.

If you need your trial period extended, contact Product Support. We need to know your Printix Home (acme.printix.net). If you are a Printix partner, you can extend the trial from within the Printix Partner Portal.

Implementation phases

  1. Evaluation

    Start a trial and familiarize yourself with the product through hands-on experience and by trying relevant features. Make sure the required ports and Internet endpoints are accessible.

  2. Proof of concept

    Proceed to do more hands-on practice, perhaps involving the installation on a print server.

  3. Implementation

    • Deploy the Printix Client.

    • Define networks.

    • Discover printers.

    • Convert print queues.

    • Go live.

Questions? Let us have a quick talk. Just submit a support request, write your questions, and if you prefer, ask us to schedule an online meeting with you and perhaps the members of your team.
