.NSQ files on a network share for Designer / Server?

bwisealiahmad — Mon, 07 Sep 2015 14:22:46 GMT

Hi,

I've just installed nPrinting server and an designer client, but I am trying to understand what is the best way to give them both access to NSQ files. What I was thinking is giving them both access to a network shared drive and map the folder in nPrinting Server.

Any other suggestions or recommendations?

Please avoid using map drives. The files should definately be placed out on the network but you should use UNC pathing to reference all nsq, tempaltes and other files within the nsq

if you have test and server environments, you can use the npringing environmental variables to point to the test or production version of the files very easily - just make sure the environments for test and production are the same but on different servers (or different folder structures on same server)

I found out that using a shared folder works great. Thanks for the reply Adam!
