NPrinting Server Setup: Confuse with NPrinting Administrator and NPrinting Service Account. PLease help!

Hi guys,

I am in the mid of installing NPrinting Server.  Now, i am confused with how many accounts need to be created to run the NPrinting.

Since the server is going to join to a domain - i will request to create a domain nprinting service account, to manage all the nrprinting services.

Suddenly, as i look through the setup guide. i was stuck at this part - Qlik NPrinting Repository service will add an administrative user with thecredential below. So, it is asking for:

Adminstrative username:

email address:

password:

repeat password:

1) Is this a local adminstrator account? or domain windows administrator account?

2) why need an email address? if need an email address? does it means i cant use back the domain service account?

Rgds

Jim.
