For cloud customers we provide everything that is needed to connect to machines that are reachable from the internet. If you would like to connect machines from a private network then see below.
For on-premise customers all machine connectivity requirements are already covered by the general on-premise pre-requisites if the machines are accessible from the server that runs our application.
Connecting private network machines
We provide a standalone application called the Aggregator which is a small application that converts data from different printer protocols to a common format.
Based on your company size and requirements to availability, you can run the Aggregator on server hardware, mini-computers or desktop computers. The Aggregator does not have a GUI.
Compatible operating systems:
Windows Server 2012 R2 2016 or higher
Windows 7 10 home edition or higher
Minimum hardware requirements:
512 MHz 64-bit dual core CPU
256 MB RAM
50 MB disk space
Network card
+ requirements from the OS

Multiple Aggregators might need to be deployed when the printers are operating in different networks. See Multi-Facility Installation below for more details.
