page 73.

Server and/or Secondary File Server software.
3. Configure URLs.

This section also provides instructions for

• Pull Printing from Your Desktop

PrintAgent Core and Server Installation

You must install the NEC PrintAgent core software, and the
Pull Printing Server software. You can also install the
Secondary File Server software. You can install all three at
once using the Administrator Setup option. Follow these
steps.
1. Insert the SuperScript 4400 Series CD into the CD-ROM
drive. The Installer will launch automatically.
2. When prompted, select the Administrator setup option
and click Next.
3. When the Components list is displayed, select
PrintAgent and click the Change button.
4. In the sub-components list, make sure that PrintAgent,
Pull Printing Server, and optionally, Secondary File
Server are selected. Then click Continue.
5. Continue responding to the selections displayed in the
installation dialog boxes.
6. When installation is complete, restart Windows.
note:
You can also install the PrintAgent Pull Printing
Server, and Secondary File Server software from links on
the URL Configuration Page.
About the Secondary File Server
The NEC PrintAgent Driver, Help files, and the PrintAgent
Core software reside on the printer. However, you have the
option of putting these files on a secondary server and then
changing the URLs to point to that server. This frees the
printer to process print jobs.
When Secondary File Server installation is complete, the
PrintAgent core files have been copied into the htdocs
directory, so the Secondary File Server is ready to respond to
file transfer requests. However, if you want the Secondary
File Server to deliver the Online Help, you must manually
copy the Help files from
<CD-ROM Drive>:\nec_disk\ncss44rm\help to
inetpub\htdocs\ncss44rn\help, (keeping the
directory structures intact).
note:
You can also install the Secondary Server
Software from a link on the URL Configuration Page.
Starting the Pull Printing Server
When a client opens the Pull Printing Page, the associated
Pull Printing Server is automatically activated. You can also
launch it by pressing the Windows Start button, selecting
Programs, selecting Pull Printing Server, and then selecting
Start.
