Verify prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that the following requirements are met for deploying AutoStore and Equitrac.

If deploying on separate servers, refer to the individual AutoStore and Equitrac server requirements.

For Windows Servers 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, 2012 R2, and 2016, make sure the server is up to date with the latest service packs, or manually download and install the latest version of Windows Installer from Microsoft. Windows Installer 4.5 is required to install Equitrac 5.7.
Print tracking from a memory storage device (USB flash memory devices and SD cards) is not available in this release.
