xi Preface About this manual The Fiery ZX-9 Color Server enables you to use your color copier as a networked printer. You can use the Fiery ZX to print final documents or to proof jobs you will later print on an offset press. You send a print job to the Fiery ZX as you would to any other printer—you select it from the Printers dialog box on Windows® computers, or in the Chooser on Mac® OS computers—and then print from within any application.
xii Preface About the documentation This manual is part of a set of Fiery ZX documentation that also includes the following manuals for users and system administrators: • The Configuration Guide explains basic configuration and administration of the Fiery ZX for the supported platforms and network environments. It also includes guidelines for setting up UNIX, Windows NT®, and Novell® NetWare® servers to provide PostScript printing services to clients.
xiii Supported paper sizes When printing from an application, your Windows or Mac OS computer communicates with the Fiery ZX by means of an Adobe® PostScript® printer driver and a PostScript printer description file (PPD). About PostScript printer drivers and PPDs A PostScript printer driver is an application that manages printing communication between your application software and the printer.
