server tools on your
computer

Remote Site Manager overview

The Remote Site Manager enables a site manager to monitor the
status of the CX print server and other Creo color servers
connected to printers on a network. It also enables you, the site
manager, to operate these servers from a remote computer.

The Remote Site Manager software includes the following tools:

●

The Remote Workspace tool—Allows users to open an actual
workspace for a selected server on their computer and import
jobs, print jobs, preview jobs, and perform certain workflows.
Several users can connect to the same server simultaneously
from different remote computers.

●

The EZ Connect tool—Allows the users to view updated printer
status information.

Note: You can run the Remote Site Manager on your desktop while you use
other applications on your computer. The Remote Site Manager does not
disrupt server activity.

the CX print server.

You need to select the Enable the Remote Connection
