Completing post-installation tasks

In this section:

1. Task checklist
2. Configuring to use IPv6 addresses
   You can use IPv6 addresses for the primary server and some of the other IP addresses in RICOH ProcessDirector.
3. Logging in for the first time
   After you finish the installation process and restart the system, log in to RICOH ProcessDirector using a Web browser on the primary computer or a workstation in your network.
4. Verifying the installation
   If you have finished installing RICOH ProcessDirector and want to verify the installation, use this procedure to enable the Sample printer, submit a test job to the HotFolderPDF input device, and process the job.
5. Deleting temporary installer files
   If a folder named C:\aiwtmp remains on your system after the RICOH ProcessDirector installer has finished an installation, you can delete that folder and all its contents.
6. Installing features
   After you install RICOH ProcessDirector or RICOH ProcessDirector Subscription, you can add features at any time.
7. Downloading and installing license keys
   If you have purchased RICOH ProcessDirector, RICOH ProcessDirector Subscription, or any feature, use this procedure to download license keys and install them.
8. Installing the Transform Feature license keys
   You can install a Transform Feature license key on a computer other than the primary computer using an installation program from the Transform Features directory.
9. Configuring RICOH ProcessDirector
10. Scheduling automatic maintenance
    RICOH ProcessDirector provides maintenance scripts that must be run regularly on the primary computer to improve performance. By default, RICOH ProcessDirector runs these scripts every day at midnight. You can change the time or frequency, and you can run your own maintenance scripts at the same time.
11. Tuning Java memory allocation
    Allocating more memory to Java often improves the performance of RICOH ProcessDirector. However, it is imperative that you take several factors into consideration before you change this configuration.
12. Replacing your control files with the sample files
    When you install a new version of RICOH ProcessDirector, the installer automatically adds new sample control files to the C:\aiw\aiw1\samples directory and copies them to your control files directory, C:\aiw\aiw1\control_files. It does not overwrite any of your customized control files in C:\aiw\aiw1\control_files. You can use the copyConfigurationFiles script to install the default control files or to overwrite your customized control files.
13. Copying objects from another system
    To reuse objects from another RICOH ProcessDirector system, you can use the other system to export them. On this RICOH ProcessDirector system, you can import the objects rather than recreating them manually.
14. Installing and configuring the pdpr script
    If you are migrating from InfoPrint Manager and you use the pdpr command to submit jobs, you can install the RICOH ProcessDirector pdpr script on the computers that submit jobs and use the same command to send jobs to RICOH ProcessDirector.
15. Setting up to use LDAP authentication
    If you have an existing LDAP or Active Directory server, you can use LDAP or Active Directory user names and passwords to authenticate into RICOH ProcessDirector.
16. Communicating between RICOH ProcessDirector and the LDAP server
    When you set up communications between RICOH ProcessDirector and your LDAP server, you might have to modify your LDAP server settings for these binds and search requests.
17. Formatting PDF banner pages
    You can change the formatting for PDF banner pages that RICOH ProcessDirector produces and sends to printers.
18. Setting up to send data to RICOH Supervisor
    The RICOH Supervisor settings let you configure the system to send data to RICOH Supervisor.
19. Installing a RICOH ProcessDirector product update
