The standard Prinergy, iMPAct, and Print Console configurations use Dell servers.
Customers may buy Dell Precision workstations directly from the manufacturer. These workstations are intended to be used as PowerPack clients, not PowerPack or Prinergy servers. If customers call for support regarding Dell Precision workstations, please redirect them to Dell support at 800-285-1653. As a courtesy, we can help the customer by reminding them that they will need the serial number (available on the label on the side of the chassis) when they call Dell.

09 Feb 2007: Sentinel driver conflict with dongle causes Dell PE830, 840, 2900, 2950 servers to lock up More...
In some systems, a newly-installed dongle will use Sentinel driver version 5.41 instead of version 5.42, which is the version configured in the baseline image.
