18 Connecting to Production Manager or PhotoPRINT Server
The design software is capable of sending output to either Production
Manager or PhotoPRINT Server.
You can only connect to copies of Production Manager that have the same
version as the design software. Attempting to connect to an older version of
Production Manager will yield an error.
Connecting to Production Manager
If you open either the Cut/Plot dialog or the RIP and Print dialog, and
Production Manager is already running on your computer, the design
software will automatically connect to the Production Manager on your
computer.
If Production Manager is not already running on your computer when you
open the Cut/plot or RIP and Print dialog, the following dialog appears:
3 Select On this computer (Local).
4 Click OK.
If your local copy of Production Manager is not running, it will
automatically be started.

• Connect to a copy of Production Manager running on another
computer on your local area network.
• Connect to a copy of Production Manager running on a remote
computer by specifying its TCP/IP address.
