Embedded Applications Template

Use the Embedded Applications template to install, activate, update, or uninstall the Embedded Applications on the device.

To use the SDK/J platform template, the access accounts of SNMP, Device Administrator, and SDK/J are required. The template may not be executed properly when the access accounts are not configured.

  1. Go to [Configuration] → [Configuration Templates] → [Embedded Applications].

  2. Click (Add).

  3. Enter the [Template Name] and [Description].

The security group items are displayed when the group restriction function is enabled in the security settings, and you can restrict the device group to be specified for the template target.

For the security group context, refer to Configure Group Restrictions.

  1. Specify the method for selecting the Embedded Application.

    • RICOH Software Server

      • Use the RICOH Software Server to manage Embedded Applications. You can obtain the latest Embedded Application by connecting to the RICOH Software Server via the Internet.

      1. Select one of the following operations to perform on the Embedded Application.

        • [Download from RICOH Software Server]

        • [Uninstallation]

        • [Activate]

      1. Select your country or the closest country in the [Country] list.
      2. Enter the product key of the Embedded Application.
      3. Click [Retrieve Application List] and select the Embedded Application to be included in the template. RICOH Software Server cannot be selected depending on the type of the Embedded Application.

    • Local File

      • Use the repository to manage Embedded Applications. Upload the Embedded Applications manually to the repository.

      This method is used to manage non-RICOH Embedded Applications or Embedded Applications that are not registered to RICOH Software Server.

    • [Use File in Repository]: Select the Embedded Application to be included in the template in the list.
    • [Uninstallation]: Select the Embedded Application to be uninstalled from the [Application Name (Product ID)] menu. The list of applications obtained from the device information is displayed for the selection items in the menu.
    • [Upload New File to Repository]: Uploads the file of the Embedded Application to the repository. You can select the uploaded file in the list. This method is used only to apply a custom package and is not normally used.

  1. Click (OK).

Notes when executing a configuration task using an embedded application template:

  • Before you execute an embedded application template, please configure the SLNX embedded application settings first. Follow the steps to apply the settings in Manage the SLNX Embedded Settings.
  • SLNX Embedded Applications cannot be installed on devices without HDD even if they are listed in the table List of Supported Models and Functions.
  • SLNX Embedded Applications cannot be managed using RICOH Software Server. Use the "SLNX Embedded Install" template that is registered in the system to install SLNX Embedded Applications.
  • If the selected Embedded Application is compatible with Smart Operation Panel models only, the Embedded Application is applied to Smart Operation Panel models and all other models will be skipped.
  • When SLNX Embedded Application is installed on RICOH devices 2012 or later without the VM Card option installed, the device does not enter Sleep mode.
  • If the available free space on the machine to install an Embedded Application is insufficient, the Embedded Application will not work properly. If error code "277" appears in the task log, delete the Embedded Application that is not necessary from the machine to allocate sufficient free space. If allocating sufficient free space is still not possible, contact your RICOH service representative.
  • On 2015 models and later, use the following procedure to check the available free space on the machine:
    1. Log in to the Web Image Monitor of the machine with the administrator privileges. For details about the login procedure, see the machine's operation manual.
    2. From the top screen of Web Image Monitor, open the following menu screen:

      [Device Management] → [Configuration] → [Extended Feature Settings] → [Administrator Tools]

    1. Check "Remaining Free Space".
