TO SET UP FIERY PRINTING ON UNIX SYSTEMS
1. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery Server Setup.
To access Fiery Setup, see page 4-8.
2. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery Network Setup.
Enter a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery.
3. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery Printer Setup.
Publish the Print queue, Hold queue, and/or Direct queue.
TO SET UP TCP/IP FOR COMMUNICATION WITH THE FIERY
1. A superuser (with root login) must add the Fiery to the network’s IP host table or
other system database of network printers.
2. In the file or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print
server protocol, the queue, and the spool file for the Fiery name you assigned.
3. Make the Fiery available as a printer to other network users.
4. To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any
computer on the network, at the command prompt, type:
ping <IP address>
Type the Fiery IP address assigned in Fiery Network Setup.
After the Fiery is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave to
the Fiery:
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as
Reply from <IP address> ...
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP address.
To stop the output, type Control-C. You can use the ping command at any time.
