On-premises deployments require ArcGIS Enterprise to host and execute the GP task of the ArcGIS Pro-based Printing Engine.
Supported Versions of Portal for ArcGIS
VertiGIS Studio Printing works with Portal for ArcGIS in ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1+.
We strongly recommend you use ArcGIS Enterprise 1.11 or later and the CIM3 - v3 version of the ArcGIS Pro-based Printing Engine.
The CIM3 version of the ArcGIS Pro-based Printing Engine has more functionality and performs better than the CIM2 - v2 version of the ArcGIS Pro-based Printing Engine.
Hardware Requirements for On-Premises Printing Servers
Most of the processing is handled by theArcGIS Pro-based Printing Engine GP task running on your ArcGIS Enterprise server.

Studio Printing can be installed on a single server with other Studio products that support shared deployment, including Studio Mobile, Studio Workflow, and Studio Printing.
Operating System Requirements for On-Premises Printing Servers
On-premises Printing servers require Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022, or Windows Server 2025.
Web Server Requirements for On-Premises Printing Servers
On-premises Printing servers require the Internet Information Services (IIS) feature of the Windows operating system. The Post Installer application automatically enables IIS by enabling the Web Server role, along with the Application Initialization, ASP.NET 4.5, Windows Authentication, and WebSocket Protocol service roles and all of their service role dependencies.
If you uninstall on-premises Printing, all previously enabled IIS features remain enabled.
.NET Requirements for On-Premises Printing Servers
On-premises Printing servers require .NET Framework 4.8+.
Ports
On-premises Printing does not expose any ports, so you do not need to adjust your firewall settings. VertiGIS Studio Printing (including Print Designer) relies on the ports that IIS uses (ports 80 and 443 by default).
TCP/IPv6 Requirements
By default, ArcGIS Enterprise servers are configured to allow TCP/IPv6. Disabling this setting prevents the ArcGIS Pro-based Printing service from functioning correctly on-premises.
