1-1 Fiery X40 on the network

This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the Fiery X40, and includes diagrams that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation. Check those references to nd the information you need quickly.

Fiery X40 on the network

When the Fiery X40 is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery X40 supports the following network protocols:

AppleTalk

TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports Windows (SMB) printing. The http protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets.

IPX/SPX (Novell)

IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.

These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each other) are supported on the Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned. A Token Ring option is also available. This option supports the TCP/IP and IPX/SPX protocols. The Fiery X40 is auto-sensing, and can handle all of these connections simultaneously.

When you add the Fiery X40 to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

Chapter 1: Connecting to the Network

1-2 Connecting to the Network

Stages of installation on the network

Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a successful installation are:

Physically connecting the Fiery X40 to a functioning network

Prepare a network node for the Fiery X40obtain cable and route it to the location where the Fiery X40 will be installed (near the copier) and attach the cable to the network interface of the Fiery X40. See page 2-10 for details.

N

OTE

:

If you plan to run the Command WorkStation software, you will need to install the software and connect the Command WorkStation computer to the network along with the Fiery X40. See

Getting Started

for details.

Conguring the network server

When network servers are required, you need to congure those servers to provide client access to the Fiery X40 as a color PostScript printer. See Chapter 5 for information on conguring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environments.

Setting up the Fiery X40

Congure the Fiery X40 for your particular printing and network environment. First read Chapter 2, and then see the following chapters for details.

Preparing client workstations for printing

Install the les needed for printing, install additional user software, and connect the client to the Fiery X40 over the network. These steps are described in

Getting Started,

and some information is provided in Chapter 5 of this manual.

Administering the Fiery X40

Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that arise. See Chapter 6 and the

Job Management Guide

for details.

1-3 Stages of installation on the network

Summary of Fiery X40 network installation

At each workstation that will print to the Fiery X40:

Install the appropriate printer les and connect to one or more queues.

For computers that will use them, install Fiery utilities and an Internet browser.

Verify the Fiery X40 in the list of printers and run a test print.

Fiery X40 available on the network

Network server

UNIX Mac OS Windows

Fiery X40

Fiery X40 Prepare a network node. Connect the Fiery X40 to the copier and to the network. If you use a computer running the Command WorkStation software, connect it to the network.

Congure UNIX, Windows NT 4.0 and IPX (Novell) servers to specify Fiery X40 print queues and Fiery X40 users.

Install PostScript printer les on the server.

No special conguration of AppleShare servers is required.

On the Fiery X40 Control Panel, congure at least the Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup. From the Control Panel, WebSetup, or the Command WorkStation, congure the remaining Setups. Calibrate the Fiery X40.

Quick path to installation

The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems that can be used for printing and running Fiery software from remote workstations. Find the page with your preferred platform and network type, and then look up the setup procedures referenced in the Key to setup at the top left of each diagram.

The diagrams describe devices that use the supported networking protocols. They are logical diagrams and are not intended to describe the physical arrangement (topology) of devices on the network. A variety of physical arrangements is possible with each logical arrangement. For example, twisted pair Ethernet networks commonly use a star conguration around a hub, rather than a bus arrangement. The design of physical networks is beyond the scope of this manual.

If the network uses more than one protocol or more than one type of workstation, combine the setups listed for each component of your system. Multiple protocols (shown in the diagrams as parallel lines) can run on the same cable. A solid connection from the Fiery X40 with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be operational at the same time.

A Token Ring card is required for connection to a Token Ring network. For more information, see Appendix A, Token Ring Network Option.

11-12 Connecting to the Network

Ethernet connection For connecting to Ethernet, the Fiery X40 supports Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling, dened as Category 5 for use with 100BaseT; or as Category 3, Category 4, or Category 5 for use with 10BaseT. The cable uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs into the RJ-45 socket on the Fiery X40.

NOTE: The 100BaseT type supported by the Fiery X40 is 100BaseTX, also known as Fast Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX hub. The term 100BaseT is used to refer to 100BaseTX.

TO CONNECT TO THE ETHERNET BOARD:

Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the Fiery X40.

A Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable network cable must be used for 100BaseT.

11-13 Parallel cable connection

Parallel cable connection In addition to receiving print jobs over Ethernet and Token Ring, the Fiery X40 can accept print jobs from a Windows computer through its high-speed parallel port. This connection is advantageous for portable computers and for workstations on dedicated networks using protocols other than AppleTalk, TCP/IP, or IPX.

The parallel port connection can be active at the same time as the network ports.

NOTE: The parallel port cannot be used to connect the Fiery X40 with the Command WorkStation or other Fiery utilities.

TO USE PARALLEL CABLE:

1. With the Fiery X40 and the Windows computer turned off, attach the parallel cable to the parallel port of the Fiery X40.

See the illustration on page 1-11 for the location of the parallel port.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel port on the Windows computer.

3. Turn on the computer and the Fiery X40.

4. Proceed to Setup.

To print to the parallel port, you need to set up the parallel port connection. See Parallel Port Setup options on page 3-13. For information on setting up printing, see Getting Started; for printing to the parallel port, see the Printing Guide.

22-1 Levels of access and control

To prepare for printing at your site, you need to do some initial Fiery X40 conguration, or Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do. Before you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for your site. Administrators and operators must also understand how Fiery X40 system software is structured in order to congure and use the Fiery X40 system correctly.

Levels of access and control When you congure the Fiery X40 during Setup, you (as system administrator) implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections, passwords, and access to Fiery WebTools. The level of control you implement can range from strict to moderate to minimalor none at all.

Strictest control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment where an administrator or operator controls the job ow and all printing; jobs sent by users are spooled (stored) to the Fiery X40 disk until the operator decides it is time to print them. In addition, only the administrator and/or operator have access to job management tools.

NOTE: The term job management tools is used in this manual to refer to the Command WorkStation and Fiery WebSpooler.

Least control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local network can control all printing and Fiery X40 functions. Although there may be an administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to the system and job management tools.

Fiery X40 print connections The Fiery X40 supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct connection. These print connections can be enabled, or published, to users on the network when you congure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and the Direct connection give remote users more direct access to the Fiery X40 than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where stricter control is desired.

Chapter 2: Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

22-2 Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

In addition, you can enable the Printed queue, which is a storage area for the most recent jobs from the Print queue. The Printed queue makes it convenient to reprint those jobs. In Setup, you enable the Printed queue and specify the maximum number of jobs retained in it (see page 3-8). Reprinting jobs in the Printed queue requires the job management tools.

Hold queue

Jobs sent to the Hold queue are spooled to the Fiery X40 hard disk for printing at a later time or for repeated printing. Because the Hold queue is a storage place, jobs sent to it cannot proceed through the printing process without intervention via the job management tools (see the Job Management Guide).

Print queue

This is the standard Fiery X40 queue. Jobs sent to the Print queue are processed and printed in the order they are received. Jobs prioritized by an operator from the job management tools and jobs sent via the Direct connection can take priority over jobs sent to the Print queue.

To use the Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools, you must enable either the Hold queue or the Print queue.

Direct connection

The Direct connection transmits jobs directly to the Fiery X40, but only when the Fiery X40 is not processing another job. If the Fiery X40 is busy, the job remains at the user workstation until the Fiery X40 is ready. The job is then processed as soon as the previous job is nished and before the next queued job is processed.

Jobs sent to the Direct connection are not stored on the Fiery X40 hard disk, and they cannot be selected for reprinting, moving, or deletion. Therefore, the Direct connection provides a measure of security for sensitive les. Jobs sent to the Direct connection do appear in the Job Log, for accounting purposes.

You cannot use the Direct connection for lpd printing over TCP/IP.

NOTE: To download fonts to the Fiery X40, you must publish the Direct connection.

22-3 Levels of access and control

Passwords You can implement password requirements as a means of controlling access to Fiery X40 functions. The Fiery X40 allows for the following passwords to be set in Setup:

Administratorfrom the Control Panel, the Command WorkStation, or Fiery WebSetup

Operatorfrom the Command WorkStation or Fiery WebSetup

NOTE: By default, no passwords are set on the Fiery X40. If you do not specically set passwords, all users will have administrator privileges, which include access to important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords), and job control. It is strongly recommended that you set at least an Administrator password to protect the Fiery X40 from random or accidental changes to Setup.

Administrator privileges

Administrator control, which confers control of Setup, is the highest level of control, since the person who has access to Setup can control the printing and job management environment. Administrator privileges include publishing print connections, setting passwords, deleting fonts, clearing the Fiery X40 of all job data, performing calibration, and setting the WebLink destination.

When performing a function from the Fiery X40 Control Panel that prompts you for the Administrator password, you must enter it promptly. Otherwise, the Fiery X40 Control Panel returns to Idle, and you must start over again.

Operator privileges

Operator control includes control of print jobs from the job management tools, including the ability to override job settings.

Guest privileges (no password)

No password is needed for a user to log in as a Guest from the job management tools. A Guest can view the status of active jobs but cannot make changes to jobs or to the Fiery X40 state.

22-4 Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

Fiery WebTools The Fiery X40 can support Internet or intranet access with Fiery WebTools from Windows 95/98/2000, Windows NT 4.0, and Mac OS computers. To enable use of Fiery WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:

Enable TCP/IP.

Set an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery X40.

Enable Web Services.

Instead of manually assigning the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address, you can use DHCP, RARP, or BOOTP protocols to assign some or all of these addresses (see page 3-15).

Passwords can be set to control access to Fiery WebTools features. If you do not specically set these passwords, all users have access to all Fiery WebTools functions (see page 2-3).

Fiery WebTools include Status, WebSpooler, WebLink, WebDownloader, WebSetup, and Installer.

Status

The Status WebTool provides you with current information on the jobs processing and printing on the Fiery X40. It is not affected by any password setting. For more information, see the Printing Guide.

WebSpooler

The WebSpooler interface is very similar to that of the Command WorkStation. It allows remote users to preview, manipulate, reorder, reprint, and delete jobs currently spooling, processing, or printing on the Fiery X40. It also allows the administrator to use the DocBuilder tool (Thumbnails A and B) and to view, print, or delete the Job Log.

22-5 Levels of access and control

Fiery WebSpooler access can be controlled by setting an Operator password in Setup. If you set a password, only users with that password can manipulate jobs from Fiery WebSpooler. A user who does not have the password can still log in to Fiery WebSpooler as a Guest with view-only access (see page 2-3). For more information, see the Job Management Guide.

WebLink

WebLink provides all users with a link to a pre-set Fiery WebLink destination. To change the WebLink destination, see page 5-13. This function requires the Administrator password, if one has been set. See Passwords on page 2-3.

NOTE: If no Administrator password has been set, any user can change the WebLink destination, which affects all users. For this reason, it is strongly recommended that you set an Administrator password.

WebDownloader

WebDownloader allows you to download PostScript, PDF, and ASCII les directly to the Fiery X40 without rst opening the le in an application.

WebSetup

WebSetup allows you to view and modify Fiery X40 Setup options from a remote workstation. For more information, see Chapter 4.

NOTE: Fiery WebSetup is supported on Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT 4.0 computers only.

Installer

The Installer WebTool allows users to download printer les installers directly from the Fiery X40. It is not affected by any password setting. For more information, see Getting Started.

22-6 Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

Control level scenarios Typical scenarios of access and control, ranging from least control to strictest control, are described in this section. Choose the scenario that best matches your site requirements, and then refer to the corresponding number in the table for guidance on how to congure your system for those requirements.

NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you set at least an Administrator password to prevent unauthorized changes to system settings.

1. (Least controlnot recommended) No designated administrator or operator

All users have equal access to all system functions including Setup, clearing the Fiery X40, deleting printer fonts, setting the WebLink destination, performing calibration, printing to all Fiery X40 print connections, and managing all jobs from the job management tools.

2. A designated administrator but no designated operator

Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator functions, but all other system functions are accessible to all users, including printing to all Fiery X40 print connections, and managing all jobs from the job management tools.

3. A designated administrator and a superuser operator

Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator functions, and only an operator or administrator can control jobs from the job management tools. Users can print to all Fiery X40 print connections.

4. A designated administrator and a designated operator, no Fiery WebTool access

Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator functions, and only an operator or administrator can control jobs from the job management tools; users can print to the Hold queue and the Print queue, but not to the Direct connection; the operator controls all job ow, but jobs sent to the Print queue may not require operator intervention; no access to Fiery WebTools.

22-7 Levels of access and control

5. (Strictest control) A designated administrator and a designated operator, no Fiery WebTool access, operator controls all jobs

Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator functions, and only an operator or administrator can control jobs from the job management tools; users can print only to the Hold queue; the administrator and the operator have complete control of job ow; no access to Fiery WebTools.

Use these settings in Setup:

22-8 Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

Fiery X40 system software The Fiery X40 uses Windows NT Workstation system architecture to receive and process jobs and send job data to the copier. To log in to the Fiery X40, enter Administrator as the user name, and enter the password.

NOTE: Conguring and monitoring the Windows NT functions from the Fiery X40 require the Fiery Advanced Controller Interface option. For more information, contact your authorized service/support technician.

Running on the Windows NT Workstation is the following software unique to the Fiery X40:

ServerThe Server is an independent software process that is started automatically whenever Windows NT is booted. As the central element of Fiery X40 system software, the Server process controls the spooling, rasterizing, and printing of jobs, as well as job accounting (the Job Log), and job storage and retrieval.

When the Server is not running, jobs cannot be received by the Fiery X40, job pro- cessing cannot occur, job data cannot be transferred to the copier for printing, and the Command WorkStation cannot connect to the Fiery X40. In the event that you need to restart the Server process, right-click the FieryBar and choose Restart Fiery.

Command WorkStationThe Command WorkStation is the interface tool for the Server. It provides a graphical means of viewing and controlling Server functions.

About Setup Setup congures the Fiery X40 to communicate with other devices and manage print jobs. It is required the rst time the Fiery X40 is powered on after new system software is loaded or after server software is reinstalled. An initial Setup using default settings is adequate for getting the Fiery X40 to reach Idle status, but not for full functionality. When your network or user printing environment changes, you can change Setup options accordingly.

Initial Setup must be performed at the Fiery X40 Control Panel. Congure at least Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup, in that order. Afterwards, you can complete or change most Setup options from a Windows computer using the Command WorkStation or Fiery WebSetup.

22-9 About Setup

Local Setup from the Fiery X40 Subsequent Setup can also be performed locally at the Fiery X40 using Server Setup, a Windows NT Control Panel. Some of the settings you specify in Server Setup congure the Server process (such as print job defaults) while some congure the Windows NT Workstation environment (such as system date and time). Depending on the settings you change in Server Setup, Windows NT must be restarted before your changes take effect.

Setup options for local Setup are divided into three groups:

The other Setup applications (the Command WorkStation or Fiery WebSetup) have different interfaces, but allow you to set most of the same options.

Network server setup requirements For Token Ring, Novell, and Windows NT (using TCP/IP) networks, the network servers must be congured for printing to the Fiery X40 before you congure Fiery X40 network settings in Setup. The diagrams in Chapter 1 give chapter references for network server setup.

To congure network settings in Setup, you need a live network connection so the Fiery X40 can query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.

Whenever the conguration of the Fiery X40, the copier, or the network itself changes at your site, you can alter individual settings to correspond to the changed environment. Changing network or port settings may require that you make changes to other Setup options as well.

22-10 Preparing for Fiery X40 Setup

Ensuring the copier connection Complete the following steps before you congure the Fiery X40 and the workstations that will print to the Fiery X40. A service technician will have performed some initial installation.

TO PREPARE FOR FIERY X40 CONFIGURATION:

1. Print a copier test page to make sure the copier is functioning normally.

2. Turn off the copier and connect the interface cable from the copier to the Fiery X40.

3. To conrm this connection, turn on the copier and the Fiery X40 and print a Test Page from the Fiery X40 Control Panel.

To print a Test Page, press the Menu button on the Control Panel to display the Functions menu. Choose Print Pages, and then Test Page.

4. With both the copier and the Fiery X40 turned off, connect the network cable to the Fiery X40, as described in Chapter 1.

The network should already be installed and operational.

5. Turn on the copier and then the Fiery X40.

6. Prepare network servers to share Fiery X40 user software and to enable networked users to print to the Fiery X40.

See Chapter 5 for details.

7. Perform Fiery X40 Setup as described in Chapter 3.

33-1 About Fiery X40 Setup

Setup is required the rst time the Fiery X40 is turned on after new system software is loaded. In this initial Setup, you (or the service technician who loads the software) choose the language to use for Fiery X40 Control Panel menus and messages.

About Fiery X40 Setup In initial Setup, you must congure at least Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup, in that order, from the Control Panel. If you dont congure the remaining Setups, the Fiery X40 uses default settings. These defaults allow the Fiery X40 to reach the Idle state, but might not allow users to print to the Fiery X40. You need to make settings appropriate for the printing environment at your site.

Making changes to Setup After initial Setup, you can change Setup options from the Control Panel (page 3-2), Fiery X40 Server Setup (a Windows NT application), Fiery WebSetup, or the Command WorkStation (page 4-3). Most Setup options can be set from any of these methods.

NOTE: Conguring and monitoring the Windows NT functions on the Fiery X40 require the Fiery Advanced Controller Interface option. For more information, contact your authorized service/support technician.

Network server setup requirements For Novell and Windows NT 4.0 (using TCP/IP) networks, the network servers must be congured for printing to the Fiery X40 before you congure Fiery X40 network settings in Setup. You need a live network connection so the Fiery X40 can query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues. The diagrams on pages 1-5 through 1-9 give chapter references for network server setup.

You must configure the Fiery X40 with the correct Windows NT domain name. This is especially important for Windows printing, also known as SMB printing. For Fiery X40 systems that include the Fiery Advanced Controller option, open the Start Menu > Settings > Control Panel > Network > Identification tab, and enter the correct domain name. You must also check Create a Computer Account in the Domain, and enter the user name and password of a user that can add workstations to the

Chapter 3: Performing Setup from the Control Panel

33-2 Performing Setup from the Control Panel

specified domain. For configurations that do not include the Fiery Advanced Controller option, you need to add the Fiery X40 to the domain from a Windows NT 4.0 server on the network using the Server Manager utility.

Whenever the configuration of the Fiery X40, the copier, or the network itself changes at your site, you can alter individual settings to correspond to the changed environment. Likewise, if printing needs or administrative requirements change, you can alter the corresponding settings. Changing network or port settings may require that you make changes to other Setup options as well.

Fiery X40 Setup from the Control Panel Setup performed from the Control Panel congures the Fiery X40 to communicate with other devices and manage print jobs sent to it.

Setup provides these groups of options:

Server Setup to specify system options

Network Setup to specify all the active network systems that transmit print jobs to the Fiery X40

Printer Setup to specify how print jobs and queues are managed

PS Setup to specify PostScript settings

Color Setup to specify color settings

Job Log Setup to specify how the Fiery X40 handles its log of printed jobs

The Change Password option in the Setup menu allows you to create and change an administrator password on the Fiery X40.

Print Start Page Yes/No [No]

Specify whether the Fiery X40 should print a start page every time it is restarted. The start page displays information about the Fiery X40, including the server name, current date and time, amount of memory installed in the Fiery X40, last calibration date, network protocols enabled, and connections published.

Use Character Set Macintosh/DOS/Windows [Macintosh]

Specify whether the Control Panel and the Command WorkStation should use the Macintosh, DOS, or Windows character set for displaying lenames. This is important if lenames include accented or composite characters (such as or ).

For mixed-platform networks, choose the option that gives the best overall representation of the special characters you use.

Enable Printed Queue Yes/No [Yes]

Specify whether to enable the Printed queue, which creates a storage location on the Fiery X40 disk for recent jobs that were printed from the Print queue. Users with Administrator or Operator access to the job management tools can reprint jobs from the Printed queue without sending them to the Fiery X40 again. If you select No, jobs are deleted from the Fiery X40 disk immediately after they are printed.

Jobs Saved in Printed Queue 1-99 [20]

This option appears only if Enable Printed Queue is set to Yes. Specify the number of jobs to be stored in the Printed queue. Jobs in the Printed queue take up space on the Fiery X40 hard disk. If disk space is low, use a smaller value for saved jobs.

Save Changes Yes/No [Yes]

Select Yes to activate any changes made in the Server Setup; select No to return to the main Setup menu without making any changes.

33-9 Network Setup options

Network Setup options Network Setup congures the Fiery X40 to receive print jobs over the network systems that will be used at your site.

If the Fiery X40 is configured to enable more than one protocol, it automatically switches to the correct protocol when it receives a print job. When the parallel port and one or two network ports are enabled, print jobs can be received over all of those ports at the same time.

The available network types, and the Setup areas that pertain to them, are summarized in the following table.

In the Setup menu, choose Network Setup, where you specify network addresses and names to be used by workstations, servers, and the Fiery X40 when they communicate with each other.

The Network Setup menu includes three submenus that let you choose port types, protocols, and network services. You must perform Port Setup and enable at least one port.

For each item you enable, you are prompted to enter settings for that item. Default values, where applicable, appear in this manual with square brackets.

You need to display and select options only for the network systems that are currently used at your site. If your network requirements change, you can change Network Setup at any time.

For information about these defaults, see the Printing Guide and the Color Guide.

NOTE: Besides the defaults described in this section, Mac OS and Windows users have additional settings available from the printer drivers.

TO ACCESS COLOR SETUP OPTIONS:

In the list of options that follows, default values, where applicable, appear in square brackets.

RGB Source Profile EFIRGB/sRGB (PC)/Apple Standard/None [EFIRGB]

The RGB source is the color space used to control color for conversion from screen to printed output. EFIRGB is based on the reference points used in the creation of the Fiery X40 software. sRGB is based on an average of a large number of PC monitors. Apple Standard is the standard reference point for Apples ColorSync software.

Rendering Style Photographic/Presentation/Abs. Colorimetric/Rel. Colorimetric [Presentation]

The CRD (color rendering dictionary) denes how colors are converted from the RGB color space to device CMYK. Photographic, designed for images, retains the relative balance between colors to maintain the overall appearance of the image. Presentation, designed for bright colors, produces the saturated prints needed for most business presentations, but handles photographic images the same way as the Photographic CRD. Absolute Colorimetric provides the closest match to the CMYK device being simulated, including rendering the paper color as the background. Relative Colorimetric provides a close match to the CMYK device being simulated, regardless of the media used.

You can also enable the parallel port, regardless of the network type you use. These options are described in the next section.

44-9 Network Setup

Ethernet (Port Setup)

Enable EthernetSelect if the Fiery X40 is to be connected to an Ethernet network.

Transmission SpeedSelect Auto Detect if your network environment is mixed, or select the speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) of the network to which the Fiery X40 is attached.

Parallel Port (Port Setup)

Enable Parallel PortSelect if you want to print through the parallel port. You can connect a single Windows computer to the parallel port and print directly to the Fiery X40.

NOTE: Enabling the parallel port does not conict with using Ethernet or Token Ring communication with the Fiery X40.

44-10 Setting up the Fiery X40 from a Windows Computer

Ignore EOF CharacterAvailable only if Enable Parallel Port is selected, this option specifies that the Fiery X40 should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages. Check this box to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal circumstances, the box should not be checked. When this option is selected, the Fiery X40 uses the parallel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached.

Parallel Port Timeout (seconds)Available only if Enable Parallel Port is selected, this setting determines how long the Fiery X40 waits without receiving data from the par- allel port before deciding that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the Fiery X40 cannot receive new jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to receive network print jobs.

Token Ring (Port Setup)

Enable Token RingSelect if the Fiery X40 is connected to a Token Ring network.

Maximum Frame SizeSelect the maximum frame size recommended by the network administrator at your site. If you are uncertain of the setting to use, select the default value (4202).

Transmission SpeedSelect Auto Sense if your network environment is mixed, or select the speed (4 Mbps or 16 Mbps) of the network to which the Fiery X40 is attached.

Enable Source RoutingSelect if your network supports source routing.

Request All RoutesThis option is active only if you enabled Source Routing. Select if you want the Request packet to travel to its destination by all routes.

Respond All RoutesThis option is available only if the previous option is not selected. Select if you want the Response packet to return by all routes to the originating computer.

44-11 Network Setup

Protocols

You can change AppleTalk, IPX/SPX, and TCP/IP protocol settings for the Fiery X40. From remote Setup, you change these settings on the Protocol1 and Protocol2 tabs. Local Setup works in conjunction with the Windows NT Network Control Panel. When you click the Modify or Advanced button next to the setting in local Setup, the system opens the Network Control Panel, where you complete the settings.

Unlike remote Setup, local Setup does not provide separate settings to enable a protocol and to congure it. For example, remote Setup has two settings for AppleTalk: one to enable AppleTalk, and the other to set the AppleTalk zone. In local Setup, there is only the setting for AppleTalk zone. By default, the AppleTalk, IPX/SPX, and TCP/IP protocols are installed and enabled. You can verify a protocol is enabled in the Bindings tab of the Network Control Panel.

44-12 Setting up the Fiery X40 from a Windows Computer

TO CHANGE PROTOCOL SETTINGS IN LOCAL SETUP:

1. Click the Modify or Advanced button next to the setting.

The Windows NT Network Control Panel opens.

2. Click the Protocols tab.

3. Select the protocol to modify.

Unless you have installed additional protocols, the choices are AppleTalk, NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport, and TCP/IP.

4. Click Properties, make your selections, and click Apply.

5. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.

6. Click OK to close the Network dialog box.

If you have disabled any of the protocols in this procedure, use the Bindings tab of the Windows NT Network Control Panel when you are ready to re-enable the protocols.

44-14 Setting up the Fiery X40 from a Windows Computer

IPX/SPX

Use this option to specify IPX/SPX frame types.

The Fiery X40 supports these following Ethernet frame types for IPX/SPX: Ethernet 802.2, Ethernet 802.3, Ethernet II, and Ethernet SNAP. For Token Ring, the supported frame types are Token Ring and Token Ring SNAP. You can also allow the Fiery X40 to select the frame type automatically.

44-15 Network Setup

TCP/IP

Specify TCP/IP settings. The current settings for IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address are displayed. For information about setting up printing with TCP/IP, see Chapter 5.

The Fiery X40 requires a unique, valid IP address. You can set a static address yourself, or specify that the Fiery X40 use DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP to obtain IP addresses automatically.

NOTE: If you specify the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP protocol, the Fiery X40 reboots when you save your changes and exit Setup. Allow the Fiery X40 to reboot and return to Idle before printing a Conguration page or proceeding with any other operations.

To set the subnet mask, enter one of the following values: 255.0.0.0 if the IP address starts with a number less than 128 255.255.0.0 if the IP address starts with a number from 128 through 191 255.255.255.0 if the IP address starts with a number greater than 191

44-16 Setting up the Fiery X40 from a Windows Computer

NOTE: Conrm the subnet mask setting with your network administrator before proceeding. In some cases the required setting may be different from those listed.

If your TCP/IP network has a gateway, and users outside the gateway plan to print to the Fiery X40 using TCP/IP, enter the gateway address.

In remote Setup, the Token Ring information appears even if you have not enabled Token Ring on the Fiery X40.

NOTE: The Fiery X40 stores assigned IP addresses even if you later disable TCP/IP. If you need to assign the Fiery X40 IP address to another device, rst set the Fiery X40 address to a null address.

PS (PostScript) Setup The options in the PS Setup menu in local Setup are located on the Paper Setup tab in remote Setup.

NOTE: In the following illustrations, Device name represents the model of the copier connected to the Fiery X40, which is X40.

Convert Paper SizesSpecify whether to convert paper sizes in documents automatically to the default paper sizes specified. For example, if you select Letter/ 11x17->A4/A3, a letter size job is automatically printed on A4 paper. If you select No, the Fiery X40 prints the job only if it nds a media source in the size specied by the job.

Color ModeSpecify whether to print color (CMYK) or Grayscale images to the Fiery X40 by default. CMYK gives you full color prints. Select CMYK as the Color Mode before performing calibration on the Fiery X40. Grayscale converts all colors into shades of gray.

44-33 Printer Setup options

Detect Black as DefaultSelect Yes to specify that jobs should be scanned before being printed to detect black-only pages. Black detection allows for accurate billing of black- and-white pages and increases the printing speed of jobs containing multiple black- only pages.

Page OrderSpecify the page order for printed output. Forward prints pages in the order received, so that the last page is on the top of the stack and the rst page is on the bottom. Reverse prints jobs in reverse order, so the rst page is on the top of the stack and the last page is on the bottom.

Default Paper SizesSpecify whether to print on US paper sizes (for example, letter, legal, tabloid), or Metric paper sizes (for example, A4 and A3) by default. When no page size is dened within a PostScript le, jobs are printed on letter-size paper if you select US, or A4 paper if you select Metric.

Print Cover PageSpecify whether the Fiery X40 prints a cover (job summary) page at the end of each print job. If this option is set to Yes, each print job is followed by a page containing the name of the user who sent the job, the document name, the server name, the time the job was printed, the number of pages printed, and the status of the job. If a PostScript error occurs and the Print to PS Error option is set to Yes, the Cover Page lists the PostScript error message instead of the job status.

Allow Courier SubstitutionSpecify whether to substitute Courier for unavailable fonts. When this option is off, jobs requiring fonts not available on the Fiery X40 hard drive generate a PostScript error and do not print. This setting does not apply to PDF les; font substitution occurs automatically for PDF les.

Print to PS ErrorSpecify whether the Fiery X40 should print the available portion of a print job when it encounters a PostScript error. In general, this option should be set to No.

When this option is set to No, printing of the entire job is canceled when a PostScript error occurs, but the processed portion of the job and the PostScript error information are stored on the Fiery X40. You can view the job and the error information from the job management tools.

When this option is set to Yes, the portion of the job processed before the error occurred is printed.

44-34 Setting up the Fiery X40 from a Windows Computer

Enable Bypass Tray as defaultSpecify whether jobs should be printed from the bypass tray. Use this option to enable printing from the bypass tray when tray selection is not otherwise available in the interface, such as when printing from the command line (lpd or DOS). In general, turn off this option when the interface permits tray selection on a job-by-job basis.

Face-Down PrintingSpecify whether to have printed output exit the copier face-down.

Color Setup The color job defaults can be overridden on a job-by-job basis in these ways:

A user can specify a different setting at print time from the printer driver.

An administrator or operator can specify a different setting from the job management tools after the job has been sent to the Fiery X40.

Some color options, such as CMYK Simulation, cannot be set from remote Setup. Use local Setup or the Fiery X40 Control Panel instead. For more information on settings for color options, see the Color Guide and Appendix A of the Printing Guide.

55-1 Support for Fiery utilities

This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network serversNovell NetWare, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000 serversthat share printing to the Fiery X40. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols for communicating with the Fiery X40. In addition, it includes guidelines for setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0 workstations and UNIX workstations, where a network server is optional. The chapter also outlines the requirements for users to print to the Fiery X40 and to run the Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools.

The Fiery X40 can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0, and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows NT 4.0 or UNIX workstations. Because AppleShare servers require no special conguration, they are not discussed in this chapter, except for use in a Windows NT 4.0 environment (see Fiery X40 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0 on page 5-8).

If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0, proceed to page 5-8. For information on UNIX workstations, proceed to page 5-14.

Support for Fiery utilities The following table describes the Fiery utilities supported over each protocol and Windows platform. More information is provided in later sections, according to your network type.

Chapter 5: Setting up Network Servers

55-2 Setting up Network Servers

Fiery X40 on a NetWare 3.x, 4.x, or 5.x network The NetWise features built into the Fiery X40 support the following network operating environments:

NetWare 4.x or 5.xNDS (Novell Directory Services)

NetWare 3.xBindery services

Servers running NetWare 4.x or 5.x in bindery emulation mode

For Ethernet-based networks, the IPX/SPX protocol is supported. For Token Ring- based NetWare networks, both IPX/SPX and TCP/IP are supported.

NOTE: Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the presence and active cooperation of the Novell network administrator. You must have administrator privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.

The term bindery server is used to refer to a Novell le server running NetWare 3.x, or running NetWare 4.x or 5.x in emulation mode. The term NDS is used to describe components of a NetWare operating system running NetWare 4.x or 5.x in native mode.

NetWare clients print to the Fiery X40 through the Novell network server. Server setup and client network setup are outlined in this chapter. Client printing setup is described in Getting Started, and printing is described in the Printing Guide.

The Fiery X40 can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet or Token Ring network topologies. (Appendix A describes the Token Ring option.) During Fiery X40 Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used for communication between the Fiery X40 and network servers. Frame type refers to the format of a communications packet; frame types are specied in a startup le when the NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.

For the Fiery utilities that have Windows 95/98/2000 support over IPX, the Windows 95/98/2000 workstations are communicating with the Fiery X40 directly, not through the NetWare server. For more information on the platforms supporting utilities, see page 5-1.

55-3 Fiery X40 on a NetWare 3.x, 4.x, or 5.x network

Tips for expertsIPX networks

Setting up the Fiery X40 is similar to setting up any other PostScript printer on the network. The following information is useful for experienced network administrators.

The Fiery X40 with IPX connections has these characteristics:

Both NetWare 3.x and NetWare 4.x are supported directly. NetWare 4.x is also supported through bindery emulation.

A minimum connection to the Fiery X40 consists of a NetWare le server, a NetWare print server, and a NetWare queue.

A single directory tree (for NetWare 4.x) and up to eight bindery servers can be congured simultaneously.

This limit is the same regardless of whether the Fiery X40 is connected to the network via Ethernet, via Token Ring, or both.

The Fiery X40 looks for print jobs on one NetWare print server per bindery server.

Each print server can store jobs for any print connection on the Fiery X40.

Windows 95/98/2000 workstations (whether a Novell server is present or not) can use IPX/SPX protocols for communicating with the Fiery X40 directly to use Fiery utilities.

Overview of IPX printing to the Fiery X40 NetWare le servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage areas for print jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the job is directed to a print queue on the NetWare le server and spooled to the NetWare server disk, freeing up the client workstation.

The queues on the NetWare server must be named to match the Direct connection, Hold queue, and Print queue on the Fiery X40. The NetWare queue names should be given an extension corresponding to the Fiery X40 print connection, as follows:

_print _hold _direct

NOTE: These extension names must be in English and in all lowercase letters.

55-4 Setting up Network Servers

There is no need to rerun Setup when adding or removing a NetWare queue; however you should reboot the Fiery X40 after a queue is created or removed.

When the Fiery X40 is congured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are automatically transferred over the network to the matching connection on the Fiery X40. For example, jobs from the NetWare queue with the _print extension are sent to the Fiery X40 Print queue, and so on. While a job is processed and printed, a record of the job is being created. You can access the Job Log containing these records at any time.

Conguring a NetWare 3.x or 4.x server for printing The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare le server so that networked users can print to the Fiery X40 from their workstations, and the Fiery X40 can obtain print jobs from the NetWare server.

For each NetWare le server that you congure, follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections and in your NetWare documentation.

Make sure the server is connected to a functioning IPX network.

Log in as the Supervisor on a PC connected to the NetWare le server.

For NetWare 4.x installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 5-6).

For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page 5-6).

For NetWare 3.x and for NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation, set up a le server, a print server, and a print queue for the Fiery X40 (see page 5-7).

With bindery services, you can route all Fiery X40 print jobs through the same NetWare le server, or you can congure more than one le server to handle Fiery X40 jobs.

The functions you perform on the Novell server, on the Fiery X40, and on the client workstation, are summarized in the following tables. The rst table applies to NDS connections, the second to bindery connections. Complete the operations in the left column, then the center column, then the right column.

55-6 Setting up Network Servers

Setting up an NDS connection

In NDS, all NetWare entities (objects) are organized in a hierarchical tree structure. Objects have a name, properties, and a context which denes the location of the object in the directory tree. For the Fiery X40 you are mainly concerned with dening a printer, a print server object and one or more print queue objects. Objects are created in NetWare administrator programs such as PCONSOLE, NETADMIN, or NetWare Administrator.

The top-level tree object is known as the [Root] object. The name of the [Root] object is also the name of the tree. Below the [Root] are other objects: either containers (which consist of other objects) or leaf objects (which do not contain other objects). Access to objects is controlled by rights that are dened as properties of each object. Rights are established by network administrators.

Setting the NetWare 4.x bindery context

You can connect only one directory tree to the Fiery X40. If you need to connect additional NetWare 4.x servers, you can do so by using bindery emulation, which causes the 4.x server to behave like and be accepted as a NetWare 3.x server.

NOTE: The le server selected must not be in the same tree as that selected in NDS Setup.

Up to eight bindery servers, whether in native 3.x mode or in 4.x emulation, can connect to the Fiery X40. If your server is using NetWare 3.x, proceed to Setting up a NetWare print queue for bindery on page 5-7.

In order to set up the NetWare 4.x server in bindery emulation mode for printing to the Fiery X40, the network administrator must do the following:

Determine the Directory Services path to the container in which the print server and the print queue for the Fiery X40 will be created.

The container denes the bindery context for your network structure.

Edit the network startup le to set the bindery context.

Activate the new bindery context.

55-7 Fiery X40 on a NetWare 3.x, 4.x, or 5.x network

Setting up a NetWare print queue for bindery

For NetWare 3.x and for 4.x in emulation, the NetWare print server and print queue for Fiery X40 are created and congured from NetWare Print Console (PCONSOLE), a NetWare utility that is stored in NetWares PUBLIC directory.

As with NDS, rst you create several NetWare entities on a Novell server, then you select them in Network Setup (see page 3-26).

Setting up NetWare Windows clients for printing

Before setting up client workstations for printing, make sure you perform Network Setup (see page 3-9), and that the settings reect the entities you created in the NetWare administrator utilities (see page 5-4).

NOTE: For printing to the Fiery X40, connect all Windows clients to a Novell NetWare server and permit them to connect to the Netware print server or servers on which you dened a NetWare print queue for the Fiery X40.

After the Novell server and the Fiery X40 have been set up, client setup consists of:

55-8 Setting up Network Servers

Fiery X40 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0 When a Windows NT 4.0 computer is congured to connect to the Fiery X40 using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the Fiery X40. If the computer shares the printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to Windows NT 4.0 clients. Client machines print to the Fiery X40 by printing to the Windows NT 4.0 print server. Printing can then be monitored and controlled at the Windows NT 4.0 server machine.

With TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can run the Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools from a Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 95/98/2000 computer.

The Windows NT 4.0 server can also use AppleTalk protocols for printing to the Fiery X40 as an alternative to TCP/IP. When creating a printer to share with AppleTalk users, do not capture the printer. Capturing the printer forces all users to print to the server rather than directly to the printer. If you capture the printer, Fiery X40 print connections will not appear in the Mac OS Chooser.

Tips for expertsWindows NT 4.0 with TCP/IP Setting up printing from Windows NT 4.0 using TCP/IP protocols is similar in some respects to setting up UNIX workstations with TCP/IP. When TCP/IP network connections are made from Windows NT 4.0 workstations, note the following:

Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery X40 and for any workstations that will print to it or run the Fiery utilities.

In Fiery X40 Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, Subnet mask, and Gateway address for the Fiery X40.

You can enter these addresses manually or use DHCP, RARP, or BOOTP protocols to assign them dynamically.

Make sure the Fiery X40 name and address are listed in a domain name server (DNS) or hosts name database used by your system.

Make sure the system host table includes the correct internal name for the Fiery X40 as a remote printer.

See page 5-15 for more information.

55-9 Fiery X40 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0

For Windows NT 4.0, install the appropriate printer driver les on the Windows NT 4.0 server.

For more information, see Getting Started.

Repeat the installation for everyone who prints to the Fiery X40.

Each server and workstation running the Fiery utilities with TCP/IP also needs the TCP/IP protocol and the Fiery utility software.

Conguring a Windows NT 4.0 server to support the Fiery X40 To congure a Windows NT 4.0 server to communicate with the Fiery X40, follow these general steps. Conguring a Windows 2000 server is similar. More detail is provided in subsequent sections and in your Microsoft documentation.

Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the server and congure it with an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.

Enter the host name of the Fiery X40 in the host database used by your system (see page 5-10).

Perform Fiery X40 Setup.

On the Windows NT 4.0 server, create a printer for each Fiery X40 print connection, install the appropriate printer drivers and (optionally) share the printer on the network (see page 5-11).

Enter the host name and remote printer name of the Fiery X40 in the printer connection. See page 5-15 for more information.

If the Windows NT 4.0 server is also a workstation, install the Fiery utilities (see Getting Started).

55-10 Setting up Network Servers

Adding the Fiery X40 to the TCP/IP network

If your TCP/IP network consists of Windows NT 4.0 servers and Windows NT 4.0 clients, use the directions in this section. If the network also includes UNIX workstations, also refer to the directions on page 5-15.

TO ADD THE FIERY X40 TO A TCP/IP NETWORK WITH A WINDOWS NT 4.0 SERVER:

1. Register the IP address of the Fiery X40 in the host name database used by your system.

For installations that dont have a network administrator or a central host name database, add the Fiery X40 to the hosts le on the Windows NT 4.0 server. Also add it to the hosts le on any workstations that have TCP/IP loaded and will use the Fiery utilities.

The Windows NT 4.0 hosts le provides compatibility with the UNIX hosts le. The hosts le is used as a local Domain Name Services (DNS) equivalent. It has the same format as the /etc/hosts le on UNIX servers. The format of the hosts entry is:

IP Address host name #comments

where indicates that you press the Tab key.

To determine the IP Address and Server Name of your system, print a Conguration page (see page 3-45).

NOTE: If the Fiery X40 has already been dened in an /etc/hosts le or equivalent host name database on a UNIX workstation on your network, it is recommended that you use the same host name here as you used for the name of the remote printer in the /etc/printcap le.

2. Perform Fiery X40 Setup to support TCP/IP printing.

Enter the options in Protocol Setup (IP address of the Fiery X40, Subnet mask, and Gateway address).

55-11 Fiery X40 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0

Installing the Fiery X40 as a shared printer

The rst step in creating a printer is installing the printer driver les, which give your applications access to printer features. The installation instructions in Getting Started can be used for every workstation that will print directly and independently to the Fiery X40. However, if you are an administrator running Windows NT 4.0 Server or Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, you can also create a printer and share it with clients on the network. When a printer is shared, clients who are not able or are not given permission to establish an independent network connection to the Fiery X40 can still print through the server.

You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the Fiery X40 printer les. If you have not yet installed the Fiery X40 printer les on the Windows NT 4.0 print server computer, do so now following the instructions in Getting Started. During installation, enter the information necessary to share the Fiery X40.

If you have already installed the Fiery X40 printer les on the computer you are using as an NT 4.0 print server, see your Windows documentation for information about sharing the Fiery X40.

If more than one Fiery X40 print connection is published (for example, if both the Print queue and the Hold queue are published), you may wish to create a printer for each print connection so that you and other users can print to each connection directly. When prompted to specify the printer name, enter a name that indicates the Fiery X40 print connection.

Conguring clients of a Windows NT 4.0 server

Each client of a Windows NT 4.0 server is already using a network protocol to communicate with the server. Each client can print to the Fiery X40 if it has been shared by a Windows NT 4.0 Server or Windows NT 4.0 Workstation computer. In that case, the client does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to the Windows NT 4.0 server as the server uses to communicate with the Fiery X40.

55-12 Setting up Network Servers

TO CONNECT AND PRINT TO THE FIERY X40 SHARED BY A WINDOWS NT 4.0 SERVER:

For Windows NT 4.0 Workstation clients, before printing, connect to the print server computer and select the Fiery X40. Right-click and choose the Open command.

When prompted, click Yes to have Windows set up the printer.

After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page Setup or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for their own job, but printer properties are grayed and not available for changing. When a client chooses Print, the job is transmitted to the Windows NT 4.0 print server, and from there to the selected print connection on the Fiery X40. The job is listed in the Print Manager on the client workstation, and the administrator can track it in the Fiery X40 window in the Print Manager on the Windows NT 4.0 print server.

Conguring the Fiery X40 and clients for Fiery WebTools The Fiery WebTools provide access to many Fiery X40 functions via the Internet (or intranet), providing additional exibility in remote management. You can access the Fiery WebTools from a Windows 95/98/2000, Windows NT 4.0, or Mac OS computer.

NOTE: Fiery WebSetup is supported for Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT 4.0 computers only.

TO SET UP FIERY WEBTOOLS ON THE FIERY X40:

1. In Fiery X40 Network Setup, enable TCP/IP.

2. Set a valid, unique IP Address for the Fiery X40, and then set the subnet mask. Set a gateway address if necessary.

3. Enable Web Services.

4. In Fiery X40 Printer Setup, conrm the Print Queue is published.

55-13 Conguring the Fiery X40 and clients for Fiery WebTools

TO SET UP FIERY WEBTOOLS ON A COMPUTER:

1. Enable TCP/IP networking.

2. Assign the workstation a valid, unique IP address and subnet mask, and a gateway address if needed.

3. Install an Internet browser that supports the Java language and frames.

Make sure Java is enabled. See Getting Started for more information on supported browsers and on Fiery WebTools requirements.

TO ACCESS THE FIERY WEBTOOLS:

The Fiery X40 home page appears.

3. Enter the Administrator password (if required) and click OK.

4. Press the Control key (Mac OS) or Ctrl key (Windows) as you click the WebLink button.

The Update WebLink dialog box appears.

5. Enter the new WebLink address (URL) and click OK.

55-14 Setting up Network Servers

Fiery X40 on a network with UNIX workstations When a UNIX workstation is congured with the lpd protocol, and connected to the Fiery X40 over a TCP/IP network, it can print directly to the Fiery X40.

Setting up UNIX workstations requires an administrator with root privileges. After the initial conguration, UNIX users simply submit print jobs to a named printer.

The job management tools, along with the other Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools, are not available on the UNIX platform. A Windows or Mac OS computer on the same network as the UNIX computer that is set up to use TCP/IP for printing to the Fiery X40 can use the job management tools to manage print jobs that originate from all workstations on the network.

Tips for expertsUNIX workstations Setting up the Fiery X40 in a UNIX environment has the same requirements as setting up any printer or new device:

A distinct IP address is needed for the Fiery X40 as well as for each workstation on the network.

You select a name for the Fiery X40 that goes with the IP address.

The IP address of the Fiery X40 must be registered for the network in a host database, and also on the Fiery X40 itself.

The Print queue or the Hold queue (or both) must be published.

Lpd printing to the Direct connection is not supported.

The following information applies especially to the Fiery X40:

Fiery X40 is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.

Fiery X40 has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with it successfully.

See the next section for details.

55-15 Fiery X40 on a network with UNIX workstations

Important note about the remote printer name Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for remote printer (or rp in the /etc/printcap le) in conguring the Fiery X40 must be one of the following:

print hold

The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0 workstation or server to connect to the Fiery X40 over TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0 printer, as the Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host) server in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box (see Getting Started).

Setting up the Fiery X40 on TCP/IP networks Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X40, must have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to obtain an address for the Fiery X40. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the Fiery X40 as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery X40 spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a workstation and the Fiery X40. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.

TO SET UP FIERY X40 PRINTING ON UNIX SYSTEMS:

1. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery X40 Server Setup.

To access Fiery X40 Setup, see page 3-4.

2. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery X40 Network Setup.

Enter a valid IP address, subnet mask and gateway address for the Fiery X40.

3. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery X40 Printer Setup.

Publish the Print queue and/or the Hold queue.

55-16 Setting up Network Servers

TO SET UP TCP/IP FOR COMMUNICATION WITH THE FIERY X40:

1. A superuser (with root login) must add the Fiery X40 to the networks IP host table or other system database of network printers.

2. In the le or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print server protocol, the queue, and the spool le for the Fiery X40 name you assigned.

3. Make the Fiery X40 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

Type the Fiery X40 IP address assigned in Fiery X40 Network Setup.

After the Fiery X40 is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave to the Fiery X40:

ping

The server should respond with a message such as

Reply from ...

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.

TO PRINT TO THE FIERY X40:

On a UNIX system running SunOS 4.x or other BSD-based variant, use the lpr command to send a job to the Fiery X40.

On a UNIX system running Solaris 2.x or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the lp command to send a job to the Fiery X40.

Windows NT 4.0 users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send print jobs to the Fiery X40 from their applications or from a command prompt.

When Windows NT 4.0 users print from applications, they can set print options with the driver, but not from the UNIX command line.

55-17 Fiery X40 on a network with UNIX workstations

Managing print jobs

UNIX network administrators can use UNIX utilities for viewing the list of jobs, and for printing and removing jobs that are spooled on UNIX servers. If the network includes a Windows NT 4.0 workstation that has TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can use the Command WorkStation or Fiery Downloader to download fonts and les.

You can also use the job management tools to manage jobs from remote workstations. See the Job Management Guide for more information.

Even without the Fiery utilities, you can:

Set up the Fiery X40 to print a log of printed jobs automatically after every 55 jobs (see Job Log Setup on page 3-42).

Print a Job Log manually at any time from the Command WorkStation Functions menu (see the Job Management Guide).

66-3 Maintaining optimal Fiery X40 performance

Maintaining optimal Fiery X40 performance The Fiery X40 does not require maintenance. Beyond the obvious requirements of servicing and maintaining the copier and replenishing consumables, there are a few things you can do that will improve the overall performance of your system:

Make the best use of your network connections

Publish only connections that will be used; the Fiery X40 constantly checks all published connections, even if they are inactive. Match the NetWare polling interval and the number of queues or connections to the demand for printing.

Review the published connections by printing a Conguration page. Eliminate the connections that are not being used. It is easy to re-establish them when needed.In general, network connections provide far superior throughput than a parallel port connection.

Reduce the number of printed pages by choosing not to print a cover page by default unless you need cover pages for recordkeeping

Printing a cover page by default is a Printer Setup option.

Leave some jobs that are less urgent to times when there is less network trafc or printing

Recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent can be printed to the Hold queue. At low-trafc times, the administrator or a user of the job management tools with Operator privileges can move (or copy) all the Hold queue jobs to the Print queue for printing.

Reduce unnecessary two-way communication

Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may have a signicant effect on Fiery X40 performance.

Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Fiery X40

Periodically review the list of jobs in the Hold queue, and the number of jobs being retained in the Printed queue.

An administrator can print or delete jobs that are in the Printed queue and Hold queue. Consider printing or ofoading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Fiery X40 is frequently low, you can disable the Printed queue (in Server Setup) and choose not to publish the Hold queue (in Printer Setup).

66-4 Administering the Fiery X40

To move or remove queued jobs, use the job management tools. When you free up disk space by removing inactive jobs, new jobs are spooled and printed more quickly.

Troubleshooting the Fiery X40 Startup diagnostics are described in the Installation and Service Guide for service technicians. Contact your authorized service/support center if you see any startup error messages on the Command WorkStation computer or if the Fiery X40 does not reach Idle status.

Troubleshooting during Setup from the Control Panel The following section explains some error and alert messages that you may see during Setup that might not be self-explanatory.

66-11 Troubleshooting the Fiery X40

Cannot connect to Fiery X40 with Fiery utilities

If users cannot connect to the Fiery X40, check the following:

Fiery X40 Setupthe appropriate network protocol must be enabled, with the correct parameters (for example, for TCP/IP, the IP address, etc.; for IPX/SPX, a correct frame type setting), and you must publish either the Print queue or Hold queue.

Verify that in IPX/SPX Setup the IPX network protocol has bound to all the frame types in use by the NetWare servers that handle Fiery X40 print jobs.

You can check these settings quickly by printing a Conguration page.

On the client workstationthe appropriate network protocol(s) must be loaded, and your Windows directory should contain a congured Enl.ini le.

Cannot connect to the Fiery X40 with the Command WorkStation

If there is a problem connecting to the Fiery X40, an error message is displayed.

The problem can occur:

When the Fiery X40 is rst turned on

When the Fiery X40 reboots

When you have changed settings affecting the server address and have not recongured the connection to the server.

If you see this problem, try the following solutions, in order:

A remote workstation running the Fiery utilities or Fiery WebTools may be interfering by obtaining status information. If possible, close the remote application, and try again to connect.

Restart the Command WorkStation application and try again to connect.

Check the conguration of the connection and modify it if necessary, or delete the Enl.ini le and start over with the process of conguring the connection as described in Getting Started.

For Windows 95/98/2000, the Enl.ini le is located in \WINDOWS. For Windows NT 4.0, the Enl.ini le is located in \WINNT.

66-12 Administering the Fiery X40

Reboot the Fiery X40.

See the Job Management Guide for information on other error conditions.

AA-1 Token Ring Network Option

Token Ring is an alternative network architecture to Ethernet architecture. Token Ring networks offer a high resistance to failure and are commonly used in large or high-trafc network installations.

Token Ring networks operate by passing a network token around the electronic equivalent of a ring. The token is a data packet that circulates from one network node to another, controlling access to the network. In practice, each workstation is connected to a port on one or more media attachment units (MAUs) which act as network hubs for the ring connection.

This appendix describes the Token Ring option and cable connections, and refers you to the remaining conguration required for printing to the Fiery X40.

Fiery X40 Token Ring option The Fiery X40 supports Token Ring networks that use IPX and TCP/IP protocols. To use the Fiery X40 with a Token Ring network, a Token Ring network interface card provided by EFI must be installed in the Fiery X40. You can use either shielded twisted pair (STP) or unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.

Connecting Token Ring hardware The service/support center that installs the Fiery X40 typically also installs the Token Ring option at the same time and congures the Fiery X40 to enable printing.

Appendix A: Token Ring Network Option

AA-2 Token Ring Network Option

Back view of the Fiery X40 with the Token Ring option installed

Turn off the Fiery X40 before connecting it to any network device.

NOTE: Do not attach cable to both Token Ring connectors.

TO CONNECT CABLE TO THE FIERY X40:

1. Turn off the Fiery X40.

2. Connect cable from the Token Ring MAU to the Fiery X40 Token Ring card.

Congure the NetWare, Windows NT, or UNIX server to print to the Fiery X40 (see the next two sections). Then proceed to page 3-2 for Fiery X40 Setup.

Connectors for Token Ring option

!

AA-3 Token Ring Network Option

IPX/SPX installations If your network uses IPX/SPX protocols with Token Ring, congure at least one printer, one Fiery X40 Print Server, and one Fiery X40 Print Queue on the NetWare server as described in Conguring a NetWare 3.x or 4.x server for printing on page 5-4. You can congure up to eight bindery servers and one NDS tree connection to the Fiery X40. This total is the same whether the Fiery X40 is connected by Token Ring, by Ethernet, or by both. For more information, see Setting up an NDS connection on page 5-6.

TCP/IP installations If your network uses TCP/IP protocols with Token Ring, congure at least one printer and one Fiery X40 queue on a Windows NT server (see Conguring a Windows NT 4.0 server to support the Fiery X40 on page 5-9), or on a UNIX server (see Setting up the Fiery X40 on TCP/IP networks on page 5-15).

Setting up Token Ring on the Fiery X40 Token Ring Setup on the Control Panel is similar to Ethernet Setup. From Network Setup, perform Port Setup, Protocol Setup, and Service Setup. The setups you need are summarized in the table on page 3-9.

NOTE: Connect the Token Ring cable before doing Fiery X40 Network Setup, so that the Token Ring card can congure itself properly.

Setting up NetWare Windows clients Client setup is exactly the same as for IPX clients using Ethernet. See Setting up NetWare Windows clients for printing on page 5-7 for details.
