Install Client on Windows

Client workstations must have hardware capable of running the operating system with a minimum of 100MB of free hard disk space for the client installation. Additional space for print drivers being installed will likely be required as well.

Third-party Software Parameters

The use of ARM processors is currently not supported for Service Client machines and end-user workstations.

Run the PrinterInstallerClient.msi with the following command line parameters:

Copy Code
msiexec /i PrinterInstallerClient.msi /qn HOMEURL=https://<SUBDOMAIN_HERE>.printercloud.com AUTHORIZATION_CODE=<AUTH_CODE_HERE>

Replace <SUBDOMAIN_HERE> with your SaaS subdomain. Replace <AUTH_CODE_HERE> with your authorization code.

An additional parameter can be added to the command if desired. This parameter will control whether or not the PrinterLogic Extension is installed with the client. You can add the parameter after the Authorization Code parameter on the command line. The options are:
  • NOEXTENSION=0 - Will override any previous setting and include the extension.
  • NOEXTENSION=1 - Will override any previous setting and exclude the extension.
  • Leaving this Extension parameter out will perform the same action as the last time you ran the installer/uninstaller or whatever is already in the registry overrides.
  • The Authorization Code can be created in the Admin Console under Tools then Authorized Devices or Tools then Tokens then Authorized Devices depending on your permissions. One code can authorize any number of devices.
  • The client installation package can be found in the Admin Console under Tools then Settings then Client.
  • The /qn command runs the install silently.
  • You can copy the PrinterInstallerClient.msi to a different distribution point.
  • If installing on a multi-user environment such as Terminal Services or Citrix XenApp, you will need to configure the client on the server or image for Remote Desktop Services mode. RDS Mode
