Use DRS to configure and deploy the unified client

Administrative access to the server is required. Perform these steps from the server where the installation takes place.

If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer, go to Start > Administrative Tools > Server Manager > Local Server > IE Enhanced Security Configuration and turn off Administrators.

If you are using AutoStore 8.3.1, you can install DRS within ControlSuite. If you are using AutoStore 7 SP6, install DRS separately:
1. Unzip the <version_number>-DeviceRegistrationService.zip from Download installer packages. This creates a new folder containing the DeviceRegistrationService.exe file.
2. Right-click the file and select Run as administrator.
3. Follow the instructions to install DRS.

Upload the Ricoh Client Package.

Download the Unified Client for Ricoh SOP software package, KofaxRicohUnifiedClient-<version>.zip, from the Kofax Downloads Web site (https://delivery.kofax.com).
Unzip the file. This creates a new folder, containing the RicohSOP<version_number>.xml file.
Open DRS. In a Web browser, enter http(s)://DRSServerIP:9000/device, where DRSServerIP is the IP address of the server where you installed DRS.
Select the Files tab.
From the Device Type, select Ricoh SOP.

At the bottom of the screen, click Upload. Go to the KofaxRicohUnifiedClient-<version>.zip file, unzip it, and upload the files.

Future updates of the client configurations can be also uploaded from here.

The administrator checks build information for the specific package version and DRS decides what should be installed to the MFP, based on the device configurations. The administrator can also install the latest version of the client, or a previous version (until that version is retired or is not supported).

The files listed in the following table are expanded from the ZIP file.

Group	Contents	Description
Ungrouped	ScanExample.zip	Files that are not specified in XML group file.
KofaxRicohUnifiedClient-<version>.zip	RSOP_1_<version_number>.xml	Package metadata file for version number.
	SmartScanEx_<version_number>.zip	Smart scan (GUI services) for other devices, including A3 devices. Used for all MFP devices.
	SimpleScanEx_<version_number>.zip	Simple scan (GUI services) for A4 devices. Used only for 306/406 devices.
	Kofax<build number> production_ authOff_<date>.zip	Client application with no authentication (example: Kofax_1.30.184production _authOff_2018-1-25.zip).
	Kofax<build number> production_authOn_ <date>.zip	Client application with authentication (example: Kofax_1.30.134production _authOn_2018-1-25.zip).

After installing DRS, the uploaded files (using Files tab in DRS) are not part of the installer and will not be removed with the uninstallation.

You can delete cached user information and transactions on the device by uninstalling then re-installing the unified client.

Create the application in DRS.
1. Select the Applications tab.
2. Click the green () button at the top of the left Applications pane.

17. In the Use Authorization Key field, select True to use additional security between the DRS application and the device, to confirm that only the initial DRS instance that was used to deploy or configure the device can be used to update the configuration on the device.
  
  If you change this setting from True to False, you must uninstall the unified client and install it again to remove the cached DRSAuthKey on the device.
18. Click Save () at the top of the Add Device pane.
  For more details, see Unified Client for Ricoh device properties.
Install the client application onto the device.
When a device is selected on the Device tab on the Device Registration Service client web page, the Status bar in the Details pane displays the current device status for the SOP application and scan GUI service. Click the refresh () button on the Status bar to display the current status for a device. If the message shows Device not reachable, the IP address or the hostname is not valid or the device is currently not visible on the network.
1. From the list at the top of the Details pane, select one of the options depending on your preferences. For details, see Unified Client for Ricoh actions reference.
  To go back to the default values for assets, you must set and resync.
