WESInstallClient - Presentation

What is a WES ?

WES (Watchdoc Embedded Solution) designates the Watchdoc interface that is embedded in the print devices. This is the interface that lets users access Watchdoc functions directly on the device in addition to the interface that is accessible via a web browser.

 

WES is developed by Doxense to be specific to each make and model of device made by manufacturers that Doxense® has signed technology partnerships with.

What is the WESInstallClient ?

The WES InstallClient is a tool designed by Doxense® to install WES on multiple devices simultaneously, once they have been configured on their print queue(s).

 

This command line utility sends instructions to the Watchdoc server to install the WES.

 

WESInstallClient.exe is available by default in the Watchdoc installation package (C:\Program Files\Doxense\Watchdoc\WESInstallClient.exe).

 

This utility can be launched from the server on which the WES is to be installed or from another server if it can connect to the server on which the WES is to be installed.

 

The WESInstallClient is compatible with the devices of the following manufacturers*

  • Hewlett Packard

  • Kyocera

  • Lexmark

  • Samsung
