15 • Setup and Configuration
1.
First, enter the desired Email Server Address and SMTP server port (default port number is 25
and 456 or 587 if using SSL/TLS).
2.
Select the appropriate email sending method. PSV provides 4 methods that define how the
email message is sent:
•
Method 1
- This is the Default setting. It uses a SMTP library from IP Works
•
Method 2
- Permits streaming. Emails are sent without buffering once the connection is
established
•
Method 3
- Uses Webmail library from .NET 1.1
•
Method 4
- Content of email is saved as a file attached to an email message
Method 1 is recommended, but you may try methods 2, 3 and 4 if emails are not successfully
sent using the default setting.
3.
If your email server requires authentication, indicate the appropriate username and password
in the fields provided. Click the
TLS/SSL
checkbox if your organization uses these
communication protocols.
4.
Enter the email address of the recipient in the
Admin Email
field.
5.
As an added convenience, PSV allows you customize the header and subject line of the email
message. Add the word
PrintSuperVision
to the
Email From
field and add the word
Alerts
to the
Email Subject
field.
6.
Indicate the interval time (in minutes) for PSV to wait to obtain device status. Set to a larger
number if network traffic is a concern. Set to a smaller number if you would like more frequent
updates reported from your print/copy devices.
Finally, another added convenience allows the admin to start and stop the PrintSuperVision
Service from the set up menu and select whether the PSV Services should start automatically,
manually or are disabled.
7.
Test the email connection by clicking the
Test
button. PSV will attempt to send an email to the
account you specified.
8.
If an email is received successfully, click
Apply
to save your settings.
