Installing InfoPrint Manager on Remote Systems

You can configure a server to support remote and unattended installations of the InfoPrint Manager software. Follow the instructions from the RICOH InfoPrint Manager for Linux: Getting Started guide.

For the unattended installation of InfoPrint Manager using the "pull" and "push" methods, you need to edit the ipin_response file. The ipin_response file contains all of the potential input variables.

Here is an example of the ipin_response file:

// The following setting is used to determine whether you accept the 
// license agreement of either Trial or Register license type and the 
// software maintenance agreement. Read the license and software 
// maintenance agreements, from Ricoh Company, Ltd. and other companies, 
// carefully. To review the licenses in other languages, refer to the
