6.6 Configuring the Remote Renderer as a Local User

You must configure the remote renderer with the iPrint Appliance server to start accepting rendering jobs. Before starting the configuration process, you must copy the device.pfx certificate file into the C:\NDPS\Renderer\certificates\ folder. If you want to use a third-party certificate, you must copy that certificate file into the C:\NDPS\Renderer\certificates\ folder instead of device.pfx.

  1. Launch the command prompt in the Run as administrator mode.

  2. Run the command iPrntRendCmd -c to configure the renderer, then follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer driver specific to your printer.

  3. At the password prompt, do not specify any password if you are using the Novell certificate. If you are using a third-party certificate, you must specify the password provided with that certificate.

  4. When prompted for service configuration credentials, specify the credentials of an account with Windows admin and Log on as a service rights.

  5. After configuration and registration of the renderer, run the command iPrntRendCmd -s from the installation directory to check the iPrint Rendering Service status.

After configuring the remote renderer, you must register the renderer through the Management Console. For instructions on registering the renderer, see Section 6.8, Registering the Remote Renderer.
