IPC 

Technical Manual 

 

 

This document will explain about the Touch IPC, and is meant to be 
a technical manual for people that need to install and service the 
machine. 

Although the Touch IPC is a standard PC running standard 
Windows XP, it is important to follow the guide about how to set up 
your system correctly, as incorrect settings will influence your 
performance. 

For information about how to customize INKdraw, please see 
INKdraw manual.
