Defining the Remote Queue Monitor URI for each remote PDS

The Remote Queue Monitor URI is the URL through which the PrinterOn Server accesses the print job queue on a remote PDS. By default, the server is configured to point to port 8181 on the local host (127.0.0.1:8181). If the PDS is installed on a different server than the PrinterOn Server, then you must configure this value to reflect the IP address of the PDS host computer.

Defining a Remote Queue Monitor URI allows users to connect to the PrinterOn server to release their print jobs remotely, instead of requiring them to connect directly to the PDS host machine.

📘 Instructions

To configure the Remote Queue Monitor for a for a printer:

  • In the Configuration Manager, click Printers > Servers.

  • In the Print Delivery Software panel, select the PDS instance you want to configure from the list of available Print Delivery Stations. The values in the Configure Software Panel change to reflect the selected PDS.

  • In the Configure Software panel, locate the Remote Queue Monitor URI field.

  • Enter the IP address of the machine hosting the remote PDS, and the port on which the PDS listens. By default, PDS listens on port 8181.

  • Click Save.
