What's needed before you install the new PF Kiosk

  1. Windows 8.1 10 x64. Photo Photo Finale Kiosk (PFK) requires Windows 8.1 10 x64 or higher, with administrative rights are required to run the installer. The user account used to run PF Kiosk does not need to be a local administrator.
  2. Internet access. Your kiosk computer needs to have internet access to install and to run the new PF Kiosk software.
  3. New or currently-supported kiosk license. The new PF Kiosk software is only available to supported kiosks. If you are out of a support contract, you will need to renew before you can install the new software. 
  4. PF Web catalog. The new PF Kiosk relies on a corresponding PF website catalog for products, pricing, memberships, and many other settings. If you are one of our kiosk-only customers, we will set you up with a PF Standard website and corresponding catalog. If you do not want a consumer-facing website, we can discourage search engines from crawling it, and you will pay no additional cost. However, this is a great opportunity for you to expand your business online and we encourage you to use the website as an order-taking tool, even if you offer store pickup only–this has been a very popular way, especially recently, to keep your customers ordering from you even while they may not be able to visit your store. 
  5. Lab 50. There is a new Lab 50 update (posted in myLab) that you will need in order to process orders from PF Kiosk. We recommend to have our Lab 50 software on a separate computer. Most dealers are set up this way, but if you are one of the few not using Lab 50, or not using it on a separate computer, please let us know, we will discuss options with you. 
  6. Keyboard & mouse. This is recommended. PF Kiosk does have an on-screen keyboard and is designed to work on a touch screen, however, a physical keyboard and mouse makes for a much more pleasant user experience.
