Introduction
This guide provides instructions for installing the software associated with Scan to PC Desktop
in a network environment.
Targeted users are administrators, Information Technology specialists or programmers who set
up or perform network installations. It assumes the reader is familiar with Microsoft Windows
2000/2003 Server with Active Directory or with Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS),
in addition to program package setup, advertising and distribution.
Network installation enables a network administrator to manage and distribute software
applications without the need to visit each client system.
If you are upgrading and you have any previous versions of the Scan to PC Desktop software
components on client systems, make sure you uninstall them first and only then proceed with the
installation.
In the installation sequence, first administrative images of the applications (the components of
Scan to PC Desktop) should be created on the server. Then the server should be configured to
automatically "push" the applications onto the client machines.

Scan to PC Desktop software components
Scan to PC Desktop is delivered in two CD-ROM variants: Special Edition and Professional
Edition.
These two editions of Scan to PC Desktop comprise different software products from Nuance.
All the installers of these software components support MSI (Windows Installer-based)
distribution.
Software components for Special Edition CD-ROM:
Software component
1 PaperPort 11 SE
2 OmniPage SE 4
3 Image Retriever 7 SE
4 PaperPort Image Printer
Software components for Professional Edition CD-ROM:
Software component
1 PaperPort Professional 11
2 OmniPage Professional 15
3 Image Retriever 7 Pro
4 PaperPort Image Printer
5 PDF Converter Professional 4
Any combination of the products on the CD-ROMs can be installed under the following
limitations:
1.) To install Image Retriever, you must install PaperPort first.
2.) To ensure full functionality of PaperPort Professional and OmniPage Professional 15, PDF
Converter Professional 4 must also be installed.
You can create as many administrative images on a network location as many software
components Scan to PC Desktop includes.

Windows 2000/2003 Server with Active Directory Support
Active Directory is a feature of Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 2003 Server.
Group Policy, a component of Active Directory, includes a Software Installation snap-in that
enables an administrator to create a network installation. The administrator can use this feature
to install software to Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Vista clients only. The snap-
in cannot be used to install software to clients with older versions of the Windows operating
system.
In general, Active Directory supports three main installation scenarios: Publish to Users, Assign
to Users, and Assign to Computers. The software components of Scan to PC Desktop support the
Assign to Computers scenario only. This will successfully install the software on next system
reboot.
Installation can be delayed on Windows XP clients when the administrator enables logon
optimization for group policy: for this type of installation, an entry can be viewed in the event
log after the first reboot. The installation takes place silently, and the software is installed for all
users of the given computer.
The screenshot above illustrates this case.

Systems Management Server Support
Systems Management Server (SMS) provides a mechanism for pushing application installations
out from the server to client systems. SMS supports all versions of Windows 2000, XP and
Vista when installing products that use Windows Installer (MSI) technology. SMS requires that a
client application be installed on all client machines. PaperPort was tested using SMS version 2.0
with Service Pack 2 and Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4. Be aware that it does not
support Windows NT 4.0. The software components of Scan to PC Desktop were tested using
SMS Server version 2.0 with Service Pack 4 and SMS Server 2003 with Service Pack 3.
SMS enables you to deploy a setup package per User or per System. The software components
have been verified to work in the per System configuration only. The per System installation of
the components can be configured to run either unattended or attended. Instructions for
controlling this process are provided below.
All the software components of Scan to PC Desktop use Windows Installer Technology. The
official Microsoft document describing the usage of Windows Installer-based applications with
SMS (entitled "Deploying Windows Installer Setup Packages with Systems Management Server
2.0"). The document is available at
http://www.microsoft.com/smserver/techinfo/deployment/20/

Creating administrative images
This section describes how to create administrative images of the software components of Scan
to PC Desktop onto the network.
Such an administrative installation will extract the necessary files into a network location
specified during the installation. This location is also known as a Software Distribution Point.
An administrative installation will not install any program files.
Administrators can run an administrative installation from the command line by using the /a
command line option. Users in a workgroup who have access to this administrative image can
then install the product from this source.
SETUP /a
or
MSIEXEC /a <MSI-filename>
The following options can be used together with the SETUP executable:
Setup option Description
/a Administrative installation option. This instructs SETUP.exe to perform an
administrative installation instead of a normal installation.
/v Precedes the list of arguments or properties that are passed to the Windows
Installer.
/L
(followed by the Windows
Language Code)
If applicable, specifies the setup language to use for installation.
The following language codes are supported:
•1031=German
•1033=English
•1034=Spanish
•1036=French
•1040=Italian
•1046=Brazilian-Portuguese
Creating administrative images of the components
To create an administrative image on the network for any application
1. Use the below tables to locate the installer of the application on the CD-ROM.
2. Launch SETUP.exe or MSIEXEC with appropriate command line options including the
administrative installation option:
SETUP /a
or
MSIEXEC /a "ScanSoft PaperPort 11.msi"
or e.g. for German setup language:
SETUP /a /L1031

3. If applicable, select a language for the administrative installation (not necessary if setup language
was specified in the command line).
4. During installation, specify a target network location for the administrative image to be
created.
5. Share this location (Software Distribution Point).
Software components and their installer locations for the Special Edition:
Software component Installer location on the CD-ROM Command
1 PaperPort 11 SE PP11SE\PaperPort SETUP /A
2 OmniPage SE 4 OPSE4\OmniPage SETUP /A
3 Image Retriever 7 SE IR70SE SETUP /A
4 PaperPort Image Printer PP11SE\PaperPort\PrinterDriver SETUP /A

Deployment - Active Directory
This section describes how to install the software components of Scan to PC Desktop onto
clients’ systems using Active Directory.
Prerequisites
•A working Active Directory environment.
•A Software Distribution Point (with administrative images of the software components)
•A deployment target computer that is a member of a domain, site, or organizational unit.
•MSI 3.1 installed on the target computer.
Note: Windows 2000 clients may not have MSI 3.1 installed. In such cases make sure you install it first.
Download it from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/89380. This website also provides comprehensive
information on MSI 3.1.
You can also find this installer in the folder of the PaperPort component
(PP11PRO\PaperPort\Utilities\WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe) on the CD-
ROM.
Installation order
Before starting to install any component of Scan to PC Desktop, please ensure that
InstallShield's Installscript engine is installed on the target computer.
Note that software components on the CD-ROM require Installscript v10 engine installer
(ISSCRIPT10.msi) be installed.
You can find the Installscript v10 engine installer in the folder of the PaperPort component (in
PP11PRO\PaperPort) on the CD-ROM.
Once the necessary Installscript engine is installed, the different components can be installed in
any combination. Note that the installation of PaperPort must precede that of Image Retriever.
The preferred order of the installations of the different components is the following:
Software component Installer
1 Installscript engine ISSCRIPT10.msi
