    Change /path/to/mount/point accordingly and follow the prompts on the screen.

  5. On your keyboard, press Enter to read the terms of the RICOH Software Maintenance Agreement. Then enter yes or press Enter to accept the terms of the maintenance agreement and proceed with the installation.
  6. Choose the InfoPrint Manager license that you want to install (trial or product). If you choose the product version, specify the actual complete path to the license file:
    /path/to/license.key
      Note:
    • You can use tab completion to enter the path.
  7. Press Enter to select the default user and group to run InfoPrint Manager. The default user is ipm1 and the default group is sys.

  10. When presented with the prompt Install RICOH InfoPrint Manager Pull Print Feature?, enter Yes.
  11. Enter the host name or IP address and port of the primary InfoPrint Manager server to be used by the Pull Print Feature. Press Enter to proceed. If not known at the installation time, these values can be configured later.
      Note:
    • You can use an IPv4 or IPv6 address. If you enter an IPv6 address, make sure that you include it within square brackets. For example:
      [2001:0ce8:58a3:0000:0000:6a2e:0370:3734]
  12. Enter the host name or IP address and port of the backup InfoPrint Manager server to be used by the Pull Print Feature and press Enter. If not known at the installation time, these values can be configured later.
  13. Choose if you want to create an ipin_response file for an unattended installation. If you enter yes, the installation stops after the file is created and you will be asked for the name of the remote system. Leave blank for the name of the local system.
      Note:
    • The ipin_response file is saved in the home directory of the user running the installer. If an ipin_response file already exists, you will be asked to overwrite the file or choose another name. Only the file name can be changed as the file is always saved in the home directory.
      Note:
    • All the steps so far do not require that the install.sh utility is run by the root user.
  14. Enter the full path to the directory containing the InfoPrint Manager installation files, namely the path to the mount point or to a different directory containing the full directory structure of the ISO media.
      Note:
    • You can use tab completion to enter the path.

The InfoPrint Manager installation begins. After the installation is complete, log off and log in again for each logged in user.
