Epson Smart Device Integration (SDI) setup
This article will guide you with the setup of Print&Share CQ (P&S CQ) Smart Device Integration (SDI) for Epson.
Configuration
- Make sure the Epson printers are installed on the Windows Server by installing the specific Epson drivers for your Epson printer model(s). Normally this is on the server where P&S CQ is installed.
(These printer drivers can be found at the Seiko Epson Corp. website.) - Prepare your Epson printer(s) for Print&Share CQ.
- In P&S CQ navigate to
Manage > Smart Device Integration > General
. - Enable shared folder, select
Predefined shared folder
and selectCustom
for Share user and fill in theUsername
,Password
andDomain
.
The user can be a domain user.
Note: when you have a hybrid environment with Print&Share CQ with SDI for Xerox you need to have a local user instead of a domain user (use server name or leave domain field empty in the case of a local user).
- Navigate to
Manage > Smart Device Integration > Epson
.
Here you should see all Epson printers. Every Epson printer in that overview should have an IP address asigned to it, so that P&S CQ can communicate with it. You can asign an IP address to a printer inManage > Output > Printers
. - Now we will configure P&S CQ on the Epson printer. In
Manage > Smart Device Integration > Epson
select a printer and edit it. Fill in the devicePassword
and for Desired actions select Print&Share CQ app:Install
and Apply.
If everything is configured correctly, you now have Smart Device Integration for Epson configured on the device.
By using Epson Device Admin you can further control and secure your Epson printers (e.g. by disabling Direct WiFi, ...).
