Setting up a client system

This is a step-by-step guide to setting up a client system. It is best to start with a new installation, since you can no longer access the data of an existing installation after client management has been installed.

First of all, install IQ4docs and the client management, see Installation.

To open the client management, enter http://<hostname>/multitenantadmin in the web browser (where hostname corresponds to the server on which the IQ4docs client management has been installed). If you are not already logged in, log in as an administrator (administrator with password admin by default).

Import the multi-client license. The demo license is not multi-client capable. Please contact your IQ4docs contact person for the license, see also Licensing a client installation.

Import the license in the license area of the client management, see Licensing a client installation.

The IP address ranges of the clients are very important. The print jobs are assigned to a user of a client based on the IP address of the sending computer and the login. The sending computer can be a print server, but also a workstation computer if it uses a local printer queue. Any number of IP address ranges can be assigned to a client, but these must not overlap with the address ranges of other clients.

Since the IP address of the computer that sends the print job to the IQ4docs system must be assigned to a client, not all clients can use the same print server.

Create clients. To do so, you need the address ranges of the client and information on how many device licenses are to be assigned to the client, see Create or delete client.
