2.1.5 Notes

• Make sure that port 80 and/or port 443 are available for the Apache web server that comes with

PrintShop Mail Web.

• USB slot (not required for testing). Your server musts have a USB port to which the hardware key

('dongle') can be attached.

• Your network should be an Ethernet (TCP/IP) network, which is by far the most commonly used network

today.

• You should have a high speed Internet connection, and a fixed outgoing IP address, which implies that

you can run a web server.

• The PrintShop Mail Web server should be directly connected to the RIP or Printer. This means that the

PrintShop Mail Web server should be located on your local network (same subnet), on your premises,

and preferably not at your ISP's (Internet Service Provider, the company that provides your Internet

connection).

• Your router should be configured to allow incoming HTTP connections over port 80. Your network

administrator or your ISP should know how to enable this.

• The PrintShop Mail Web server has a built-in email server. This email server will send email notifications

to you and your customers when the order status changes. You'll need to know your ISP's SMTP server

address (usually something like smtp.yourprovider.com)
