Please Note: A dedicated physical or virtual machine is required for the data server due to the fact that the Label Traxx Server application will typically utilize a large amount of available CPU and RAM. We also recommend 2 physical hard drives: one for the OS and the Label Traxx Server application, and a second drive to be used specifically for backup of the Label Traxx data. More RAM may be required for the server machine as the data file grows to maintain performance.

*** For Mac servers you will need an external drive for backup. USB-C is recommended.

*** A Windows computer is recommended for the Label Traxx Web Client Server as Windows is required to interface with Esko Automation Engine or Hybrid CloudFlow for the Label Traxx Prepress (JDF) module integration.

Please Note: A minimum screen resolution of 1440 x 900 is required to view the Label Traxx Client application.

If you have any questions regarding Label Traxx hardware requirements, or if you would like us to review proposals from hardware or IT vendors please contact Label Traxx Support at email: support@labeltraxx.com.
