General Information
Purpose
The ISD300-PoE was developed to spool and manage print jobs and to handle
print queues.
In complex networks with high volumes of data traffic and in large-scale
structures, the ISD300-PoE can substantially relieve server load and remove strain
from the network. This results in better performance and enhanced system
stability.
The ISD300-PoE adds server qualities to the printing in peer-to-peer networks.
Enhanced transparency, higher performance and the central management of all
print processes result in maximum efficiency and very little time required for
maintenance and system updates.
The ISD300-PoE is able to accept print jobs from various operating systems and
to forward them to the printer via Socket, LPD, or IPP.

Safety Regulations
Before starting the initial setup procedure and during the operation of the ISD-
PoE, please note the following safety regulations. Their purpose is to protect
yourself and others from personal injuries, and avoid damage to the equipment.
CAUTION: Failure to follow these directions could result in bodily harm
or loss of life.
Basic Personal Security Precautions
Read the documentation and make sure that your system meets the
requirements listed therein.
 Do not open the housing of the device. The ISD300-PoE may only be connected
and operated if the housing is not opened and if the ISD300-PoE is in perfect
condition.
Do not put objects on top of the housing.
Unauthorised modifications to the device can affect the product certification
and are forbidden.
Operating Environment Prerequisites
The ISD300-PoE must be placed on a solid surface with no vibration.
The ISD300-PoE must not be operated in dusty places and direct sunlight.
Avoid contact with humidity or liquids.
The ISD300-PoE may only be connected and operated if the installation
location meets the ambient conditions.
Security Precautions for Cabeling and Power Cords
 Make sure that no-one steps on or stumbles over the cables.
Do not connect a telephone cable to the RJ-45 connector. The RJ-45
connector may only be connected to SELV voltages. For the connection to the
RJ-45 connector only STP cabling (category 5 or better) may be used. The
shielding must fit flushly to the connector.
Only use a certified USB Hi-Speed cable for the connection to the printer. You
will find a list of certified cables at www.usb.org!
Ambient temperature: 5 - 30 °Celsius
Relative humidity: 20 - 80 %

Switching the ISD300-PoE On/Off
Switching the Device On
The ISD300-PoE system software boots automatically if the device receives the
power it needs. The power supply can be started by plugging in the network cable
or by turning on the PoE device (device that is used to supply power to the
ISD300-PoE).
Switching the Device Off
Print jobs that are processed while the ISD shuts down cannot be completed.
Print jobs that are stored in a queue will be completed when the device reboots.
To turn off the device, shut down the system software manually.
Booting/Shutting down the System Software
The system software can be booted/shut down manually.
To boot the software, press the soft power switch for a short moment.
To shut down the software, keep the soft power switch pressed for five
seconds.
What Happens in the Case of a Power Failure?
When the ISD receives again the necessary power, it takes on the same status as
before the power failure.

ISD Software Package
Apart from the integrated user interface (ISD Control Center), the following tools
are available for the administration of the ISD:
 The SEH ISD Manager is a software that has been developed by SEH
Computertechnik GmbH for a simple administration of the ISD. The SEH ISD
Manager offers the following features to assist you in your work:
- monitoring
- backup and update management
- queues and printer drivers
- restart
The SEH Print Monitor is an SEH-specific extension for the printing service of
a Windows operating system. The software ensures the transfer of
unencrypted and encrypted (SSL/TLS) print data from the client to the ISD by
means of direct TCP/IP ports. The SEH Print Monitor can be installed on every
client intended for printing.
The ISD Printer Driver Wizard helps you to install printer drivers on the ISD.
For this purpose the Wizard will be installed on a client running Windows 2000
or later. The client must be specified as 'Printer Administrator' on the ISD.
The Driver Wizard Plugin (CSR DLL) is used to check if original printer drivers
support CSR. The printer drivers are then configured in such a way that the
client will be automatically able to spool the rendered print job to the ISD
according to the CSR principle.
All ISD tools are available on the service area (see  5) and at www.seh-
technology.com. For further information; see: ISD300 User Manual.
Product Update
We recommend the use of the SEH ISD Manager to keep your product up-to-date.
The SEH ISD Manager automatically searches for current software packages. You
will be automatically informed if SEH Computertechnik GmbH deploys a new
software package for your product. You can then download the current software
package via the SEH ISD Manager and install it to your device.

Allgemeine Informationen
Verwendungszweck
Das ISD300-PoE wurde für das Spoolen und Managen von Druckaufträgen sowie
die Verwaltung von Druckerwarteschlangen (Queues) entwickelt.
Das ISD300-PoE trägt in komplexen Netzwerken mit hohen Datenaufkommen
oder weitläufigen Strukturen zu einer starken Entlastung des Servers und ggf. des
Datennetzes bei. Höhere Performanz und Stabilität sind zwei der positiven
Folgen.
In Peer-to-Peer-Netzen sorgt das ISD300-PoE für Server-Qualitäten beim
Drucken. Mehr Transparenz, höhere Performanz und eine zentrale Verwaltung der
Druckvorgänge sorgen für mehr Effizienz und geringeren Zeitaufwand bei
Wartung und Systempflege.
Das ISD300-PoE kann Druckaufträge von unterschiedlichen Betriebssystemen
annehmen und an Drucker via Socket-, LPD- oder IPP-Printing weiterleiten.
