Customizing the Admin web interface
As the PaperCut MF Admin web interface is designed for use by administrators, you generally don't need to customize it to the extent of the user web interface (for information about customizing the user web interface see Customizing the User web interface). However, you can display an organization logo or other image in the header of the Admin web interface. The available customizations are:
-
Replace the existing administration logo
-
Add an image of your choice to the right of the main administration logo
-
Add a custom message to the dashboard
Add logos to customize the look of the Admin web interface. You can customize these by placing the following files in the PaperCut MF directory structure at [app-path]/server/custom/web/.
You can add your own content to the dashboard by placing an HTML file in [app-path]/server/custom/web/ called dashboard-notice.inc. This could be used to display a short message for the attention of other administrators. Other examples might include:
-
Guidelines for administering printers
-
Policies for handing refunds
-
Contact details for key people
-
Or even your own widget that loads content from elsewhere
