Client Setup Utilities

The Client Setup Utility allows you to deploy the PDF Writer printer automatically rather than manually to all your clients from your logon script or environment setup script.

According to the licensing model, you are required to purchase at least one PDF Writer for Windows Server license for your print server computer, AND one Client License for each client. For example, if you have 50 clients, and you are suggested to buy 50 Client Licenses, or a 50-User License Pack.

C:\>ClientSetup.exe

Client Setup for PDF Server for Windows Server 2012 1.01

Usage: ClientSetup.exe [ServerName] [PrinterName] ([PrinterDisplayName])

C:\>ClientSetup.exe 10.20.3.91 "PDF Writer" "My PDF Printer"

C:\>ClientSetup.exe print-srv001 "PDF Writer" "This PDF Creator"

ServerName can be the server name or the IP address of the server where the PDF Writer for Windows Server 2012 software is installed.

PrinterName should always be "PDF Writer" unless the name of the "PDF Writer" printer on the server side is changed to another name.

PrinterDisplayName is the actual display name of the shared printer on the client side. This parameter is optional, and it takes effect with Windows Vista or later only.
