Suggested Requirements
For production servers, it's recommended to invest in specific server hardware, such as large RAID hard disks, UPS (unin-
terrupted power supply) and enough RAM memory.
l Intel or AMD dual-core processor
l 4 GB of system memory
l 300 GB hard drive with as much available space as possible
Notes
l Make sure that port 80 and/or port 443 are available for the Apache web server that comes with PrintShop Mail Web.
l USB slot (not required for testing). Your server musts have a USB port to which the hardware key ('dongle') can be
attached. See "USBHardware Key" (page 51).
l Your network should be an Ethernet (TCP/IP) network, which is by far the most commonly used network today.
l You should have a high speed Internet connection, and a fixed outgoing IP address, which implies that you can run a
web server.
l 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).
l 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.
l 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 some-
thing like smtp.yourprovider.com)
