Deploying YSoft SafeQ Client v3 in a Client mode
Client Non-Spooling mode
Client Non-Spooling is a mode in which the client analyzes the received print job and forwards it with the print job metadata to the YSoft SafeQ Client v3 in the Server mode. The client does not store and print job data locally.
Requirements
- Site server IP address or hostname
- YSoft SafeQ JobService installed on a site server (for ports reference see Deployment requirements)
- YSoft SafeQ Client v3 counterpart on the site server in a server mode
Installation
Example of script usage
Following is an example of a command which will install YSoft SafeQ Client v3 in the Client Non-Spooling mode
.\install.ps1 -SiteServerHosts 10.0.42.42 -SpoolerMode "ClientNonSpooling"
or for macOS
sudo ./install.rb --siteserver-hosts=10.0.42.42 --spooler-mode ClientNonSpooling
Advantages of the Client Non-Spooling mode
- Job analysis is offloaded to workstations. Resources of the server will not be used to analyze print jobs. Only job preview is being generated on the server.
- Workstation does not have to be available when a user wants to release a print job, because print jobs are stored on the server.
- User authentication via username/password or Windows SSO while having print jobs stored on the server.
- The print job data is transferred through HTTP/HTTPS based on HttpServerOptions Scheme field, by default HTTPS.
