Build a new site with Printix Cloud
If you want to install and configure Printix before users move into a new office/site, follow the steps below to build your print infrastructure.
Requirements:
-
Be connected to the network at the new site.
-
Printers are powered on and are on the network.
-
Follow the recommended Implementation setup.
Step 1: Install
Download the Printix Client software and install it on a computer at the new site. The computer should run the same Windows/macOS editions the users will be using.
-
Printers are discovered and registered in the Printix Cloud.
Step 2: Set up print queues
Open the Printers page to see the printer properties and print queue properties. If not all of your printers are listed on the Printers page, add the missing printers.
-
Optionally, rename the printers and print queues.
-
Refine the print queue setup by adding print drivers and perform print driver configurations to configure installable options (such as Paper trays, Duplexer, Staple, Hole punch, Output bins, and Form to tray assignment).
-
For each additional Windows/macOS edition to be used in the organization, install the Printix Client and add print drivers and perform print driver configurations.
-
Test that printing with the added print queues works as intended on the Windows/macOS editions to be used.
Step 3: Deploy Printix Client to computers
Use your preferred method to deploy the Printix Client, such as Microsoft Endpoint Manager, and get users to print with and use Printix.
-
If users sign in with Microsoft, you should accept Printix for all users.
