Connecting to PhotoPRINT Server / FlexiPRINT Server at an Internet Address

  1. Ensure that neither Production Manager nor PhotoPRINT Server / FlexiPRINT Server is running on your computer.
  2. Make sure that Production Manager is not running on the remote computer.

    If Production Manager is running on the remote computer, the software will connect to that copy of Production Manager instead of PhotoPRINT Server / FlexiPRINT Server.

  3. Find out the TCP/IP address of the remote computer.
