Configure and run Preflight check
You can configure Preflight to specify which categories of errors to check and how errors are reported. Preflight
configuration settings can be saved as a preset, which allows you to quickly select a Preflight configuration for a
particular job.
1
In Job Center, select a held job and select Actions > Preflight.
2
Optionally, select a Preset (collection of settings) from the Preset list.
3
Select each category of error to check and specify any settings. Clear the check box to skip a particular category.
A skipped category is automatically given a Pass result.
4
Select a notification level (Critical or Warning) for each category of error.
5
Select Stop Preflight on first critical error if you want to stop running Preflight as soon as a critical error is
detected.
6
To save the settings as a new preset, select Save or Save As from the Preset list.
7
To perform the Preflight check with these settings, click Preflight.
Preflight runs and displays the results in a report. You can print and save this report, and you can also redisplay
the report in Job Center by selecting the job and clicking the link by the Preflight status.
ImageViewer
Fiery ImageViewer allows you to soft proof and edit colors or gray levels in a job before printing. You can use
ImageViewer to preview job placement, orientation, and content, as well as general color or grayscale accuracy.
ImageViewer displays the raster image of a processed job.
Color output
Unlike the Preview application, ImageViewer displays the job with the actual CMYK values that are sent to the
printer and therefore provides an accurate soft proof. The soft proof does not display the effects of calibration,
however, which can affect color.
You can edit the individual C, M, Y, and K response curves. You can save your edits and apply them to other color
jobs. You can also apply G7 calibration curves that were created using CHROMiX Curve2 or Curve3.
You can display the separation data for each process color independently or in combination with any other process
colors. If the job has Halftone Simulation settings, the preview shows a composite view of all separations at the dot
level. If you print pages from ImageViewer, the output includes composite color information for the separations that
are selected in ImageViewer.
Black-and-white output
ImageViewer allows you to adjust the gray levels in a job before printing. You make these adjustments visually, by
changing the response curve (a graphical representation of input vs. output density), and viewing the effect in a
preview of the job.
ImageViewer also allows you to install the response curve adjustments of the current job on the Fiery Server. The
same gray level adjustments are then applied to all jobs that are processed subsequently.
