Accessing PrintShop Mail Web
To access the PrintShop Mail Web Interface, you must do so from a browser that has access to the location where it is installed.
To access the website from the server where it is installed use any of the following methods:
- Double-click on PrintShop Mail Web on your desktop
- Go to Start, (All) Programs, PrintShop Mail Suite 7 and click on PrintShop Mail Web
- Open your browser and go to http://localhost/
- Open your browser and go to http://127.0.0.1/
To access the website from a computer on the same local network as the server:
- Open your web browser on the client computer
- Type in the IP of the server within a URL. For example if the server's IP is 192.168.100.123 , type in http://192.168.100.123/
To access the website from a computer on the internet (for anyone to access the website):
- Make sure your server is accessible from the internet. To do this, make sure the port used by PrintShop Mail Web is redirected from by the router to the PrintShop Mail Web server IP address. Your network administrator can do this for you.
- If you want your website to be accessible using a domain name such as http://www.myprintshopname.com/ , you will need to create a redirection or DNS setup on the domain name. Your network administrator can do this for you.
- Once this is done, you can access your website from anywhere in the world by typing the IP or domain name of your server, such as http://12.34.56.78/ or http://www.myprintshopname.com/
If, during installation, you specified an HTTP port that is different than port 80 (The default HTTP port), you will need to always type in the port when accessing your website, even when using a domain name. For example if you put port 8080, any URL will need to contain :8080 at the end, like this: http://www.myprintshopname.com:8080/ . If PrintShop Mail Web is to be accessed publicly through the web, it is not recommended to use a port other than 80, as regular Internet users will not expect to have to type in a port, thus may not be able to understand how to access your website.
