Before you begin

Before using the Fiery ZX, follow these steps:

1. Conﬁrm that the system administrator has completed Setup as described in the

Conﬁguration Guide

2. Find out what printer defaults the administrator speciﬁed in Setup.

These default settings can affect the results of your print jobs. Check with your

administrator or operator for information on these default settings.

3. Conﬁrm that the user software is installed correctly on your workstation, as described

Getting Started

4. Consult the

Color Guide

for information on print options and application features that

affect color output.

5. Find out how your workstation is conﬁgured for printing on the network.

If your site has an operator who controls all printing, you may have access to the Hold

queue only. In this case, all jobs you send are spooled to the Fiery ZX and held until

the operator sends them to their next stage of processing.

You may also have access to the Print queue. If you send jobs to this queue, jobs spool

to the Fiery ZX and proceed to RIP and print according to your job settings—unless

someone (you, or an operator, for example) intervenes.

Lastly, you may have access to the Direct connection, which sends jobs straight to the

server without spooling.

6. Find out whether the Fiery ZX is set up to use the Fiery WebTools and what your access

privileges are.

The administrator may or may not have enabled access to the server via the Internet

(or an intranet). If access is enabled, a password may be required to perform job

management with the Fiery WebSpooler.
