For some printer device models, it is necessary to reinstall the WES and restart the device for this change to take effect.
If reinstalling the WES is to be applied to large numbers of devices, we recommend

Customize the images

To change the default images to your own images:

  1. go to the server where Watchdoc® is installed;

  2. in the folder including the Watchdoc® installation files (C:\Program Files\Doxense\Watchdoc\Images\Embedded\Doxense\, by default), choose the folder of the device manufacturer and copy it;

  3. go back one level in the folders tree, paste the folder you just have copied and rename it clearly (for example: ([MANUFACTURER]_Custom) before customising it;


  4. in the customised manufacturer folder, replace each original image with your own images, respecting the size of the original images (go to the images properties to know the detailled sizes):

    To make sure that the dimensions are respected, you can resize the custom images by overlaying them on the default images:

    1. open the default image in an image editor (such as MS Paint);

    2. overlay the custom image on the default image and size it by overlaying;

    3. Save the resized custom image with the name of the default image.

 

N.B.: The number of images contained in the folder varies depending on the manufacturer and functionality of the WES:

  • large banner: image displayed on the authentication screen before choosing the authentication mode (absent if the WES does not offer authentication) ;

  • small_banner: image displayed on the authentication screen after the authentication mode has been chosen (absent if the WES does not offer authentication);

  • logo_small: image displayed at the top of the print management interfaces;

  • logo: image displayed on the WEScan home panel (220x25 px).

For Canon MEAP devices, the large banner must be 640 px x 275 px. On the 275 px height, keep 10 px lower margin so that the image is not truncated

  1. in the WES profile interface, go to the WES Properties section;

  2. In the Custom Image field, enter the path to the folder where your customised images are saved (C:\Program Files\Doxense\Watchdoc\Images\Embedded\[Manufacturer]_custom);


     

  1. click on Validate to save the WES profile configuration;

  2. then verify onto the device screens that the WES is customised with your images.
