Distributing Jobs Using the Installer

If you run the installer with the Document Capture Pro installer (Setup.exe) and the job file (.jxz) in the same folder, you can install Document Capture Pro and import jobs at the same time. In addition, you can also include a setup configuration file (Setup.ini) that specifies the installation operations, and omits the installation specifications.

This section explains how to create a Setup.ini using the Setup Configuration Tool to create an installer that will install Document Capture Pro and import job files at the same time.

Caution:

When you use the installer created in this procedure, a job with the account information for the image destination is setup on the destination computer; this allows users who do not know the account information to upload images to that destination. Either make sure the installer is only distributed to trusted users, or prepare a job with no registered account information in advance.

  1. 1Export the job.

    • Make sure you export jobs used for silent import without setting a password for protection.
    • When you perform Export Job, all of the jobs registered to the selected scanner as well as the button assignment settings are exported.
      When distributing jobs for multiple models, select the target scanner from the Document Capture Pro top screen, and then repeat the export operation. Store the job files you created in one place.

  2. 2Download the Document Capture Pro installer (self-extracting format).

    Download the installer from Epson's website.

  3. 3Change the extension for the Document Capture Pro installer (self-extracting format) to "zip" (compressed file format), and then un-zip the renamed file.

    Setup.exe and a configuration file will be generated.

  4. 4Access the Document Capture Pro installation folder, and launch the SetupConfigurationTool.exe (Setup Configuration Tool) from the tools folder.

    Example: <C:\Program Files (x86)\EPSON Software\Document Capture\tools\>

  5. 5Configure the installer.
