After the installation of Kofax Front-Office Server, these properties have default values.
Information about the possible values for each property is in the mfp.hp.properties file.
Note the following when changing this file:
Do not change the server.url.subpath property.
All HP MFPs connected to the same Kofax Front-Office Server must have the same
user name and password.
When the password has been changed, it appears encrypted in the properties file after
Kofax Front-Office Server has been restarted.
For fastest performance, use low-resolution grayscale images.
Resolutions greater than 200 dpi may adversely affect performance.
You can override the color mode, background cleanup, darkness, sharpness, and
resolution settings for a scan job at the front panel.
If there is a failure, documents may be dropped without warning.
The default value is used if the property is not included in the file or if the value is
invalid.

Configuring the Connection (HTTP or HTTPS)
By default, Kofax Front-Office Server and the MFP device communicate via a secure connection.
Follow the instructions in this section to configure the connection between Kofax Front-Office
Server and the MFP device.
X To configure the connection from the MFP to Kofax Front-Office Server

In the \conf folder, locate mfp.hp.properties and open it in a text editor.
2
Edit the mfp.hp.properties file as follows:

Specify whether you want to use a secure (HTTPS) or unsecure (HTTP) connection
(
server.protocol
).
b
Enter the number of the port used by Kofax Front-Office Server for the secure or
unsecure connection (
server.port
).
Note
With standalone installations, the port for the secure connection needs to be
identical with the port specified in the server.xml file, which is located in
\Avalin\jboss\server\avalin\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar where Kofax Front-
Office Server is installed.
