ExcelliPrint Minimum Requirements

The system requirements for ExcelliPrint® 5.0.

Computer system requirements

  • Windows 10 or 11, or Windows Server 2016 or later; 64-bit (x64) only
  • An administrator account to install. ExcelliPrint runs as a Windows service; no one needs to be logged in for it to receive jobs.
  • Memory and disk as for Windows. Large jobs are kept in a work folder while they’re processed, so allow free disk space of a few times your largest job.
  • TCP/IP between the host and the ExcelliPrint computer. Setup adds the Windows Firewall rule the queues need.

Nothing else is needed: no Java, web browser or web server.

IBM i (AS/400)

  • Print Services Facility (PSF) for IBM i, which drives IPDS printers
  • TCP/IP

z/OS

  • Print Services Facility (PSF) for z/OS with TCP/IP printer support (the PRINTDEV keywords IPADDR and PORTNO)

Other hosts

PSF for z/VSE drives ExcelliPrint like any TCP/IP IPDS printer. InfoPrint Manager for AIX is expected to work, defining each queue as a PSF TCP/IP printer, but hasn’t yet been tested with ExcelliPrint.
