Additional Client Management Options

Here are some additional Client options for managing your PrinterLogic SaaS environment.

Update the Home URL

The Client's Home URL identifies the PrinterLogic SaaS server where your client checks in to receive printer driver deployments, updates, etc. Typically, the aministrator sets the Home URL. However if the DNS name of the PrinterLogic SaaS server changes, you'll need to update the Client Home URL.

Home URL Security is always on and cannot be disabled. If you need to access additional Home URLs when managing multiple instances, add the Home URL to the PrinterLogic SaaS allow list. See Home URL Security for more information.

Windows

Use the Self-service Portal

1. Open the Self-service Portal using the desired new Home URL.
2. Select any printer, and then click Install Printer. This sets the Home URL.
3. When the Install confirmation prompt appears, select Yes or No as needed.

Use the Command Line

Use the following script to change the Home URL.

msiexec /i \\server\share\PrinterInstallerClient /qn ADDLOCAL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomous REINSTALL=ALL HOMEURL={URL} AUTHORIZATION_CODE={AUTHORIZATION CODE}
NET START PrinterInstallerLauncher

PrinterLogic SaaS supports HTTPS exclusively.

macOS

Use the Self-service Portal

1. Open the Self-service Portal using the desired new Home URL.
2. Select any printer, and then click Install Printer.
3. When the Install confirmation prompt appears, select No.

Use the Terminal

Open the terminal on the workstation and run the following command:

sudo /opt/PrinterInstallerClient/bin/set_home_url.sh [PROTOCOL] [HOMEURL]

Replace [PROTOCOL] with HTTPS and [HOMEURL] with the new URL.

The Home URL is now set to the URL used to access the Self-service Portal.

Uninstall the Client

Here are instructions on how to uninstall the Client.
