Configuring proxy exceptions

If you configure a proxy in the Internet Explorer/Windows settings, a known issue may arise where Windows does not correctly honor the Bypass for Local Addresses setting. This prevents PrinterOn components from communicating with other local components. This known issue primarily impacts the PrintAnywhere server.

To work around this issue, you can whitelist local IP addresses and hostnames to allow PrintAnywhere to correctly communicate with CPS.

📘 Instructions

To configure the proxy settings for an individual component:

  • In the Configuration Manager, click Advanced > Components, then locate PrintAnywhere Server and click the adjacent Configure button.

  • Click the Proxy tab, and configure the settings as necessary.

  • click Advanced > Components, then locate Central Print Services and click the adjacent Configure button.

  • Click the Proxy tab.

  • In the Proxy Exceptions field, enter the following IP addresses and hostnames:

    • 127.0.0.1

    • localhost

    • the internal IP address

Note: If you have any remote components installed that PAS may need to communicate with (for example, PDS or PDH), enter their IP addresses in this field as well.
