what the operators see. Consider developing and testing your
projects with a display that matches the lowest common denominator
display in your overall system.
You must make some configuration settings, such as the one for
converting graphics to grayscale for printing with one-color ribbons,
on each computer in your system.
Network Access
Will all your users have access to the same network? If they will, you
can use capabilities of the network to simplify the maintenance of
your ID Works identification system.
For example, placing your ID Works project files on a file server
simplifies the process of updating projects because you have to
change the project in only one place, instead of sending updated
project files to each location and coordinating the change-over to the
new project. See “Locating Project Files” on page 154 for additional
information.
Locate the Users File on a File Server
Placing the users file (the file that contains user account information)
on a file server will prevent accidental deletion of the users files from
individual computers. A single, server-based users file also reduces
the time you spend on maintaining user account information (you only
have to maintain one file) and ensures that users will have access to
the ID Works software no matter which computer they use. If you
place the users file on a file server, for each computer in your system
you must install ID Works software using the Custom Install option
and specify the users file location.
