Introduction
This guide provides instructions for installing the software associated with Scan to PC Desktop
in a network environment.
Targeted users are administrators, Information Technology specialists or programmers who set
up or perform network installations. It assumes the reader is familiar with Microsoft Windows
2000/2003 Server with Active Directory or with Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS),
in addition to program package setup, advertising and distribution.
Network installation enables a network administrator to manage and distribute software
applications without the need to visit each client system.
If you are upgrading and you have any previous versions of the Scan to PC Desktop software
components on client systems, make sure you uninstall them first and only then proceed with the
installation.
In the installation sequence, first administrative images of the applications (the components of
Scan to PC Desktop) should be created on the server. Then the server should be configured to
automatically "push" the applications onto the client machines.
