Setting up PostScript and/or PCL printing with Windows 95/98

Installing User Software on a Windows Computer

This chapter describes installing software and setting up printing from a Windows-based computer running Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0. The general steps for installing the software are: Install the PostScript printer driver or PCL printer driver (Windows 95/98 and Windows NT 4.0) and corresponding printer driver les Set up the printer driver to communicate with the Fiery Install the Command WorkStation software Install the Fiery utilities and the Fiery Scan plug-in Congure the connection for Fiery Link, Fiery Downloader, ColorWise Pro Tools, Fiery Scan, and the Command WorkStation Copy additional les from the User Software CD, as needed In addition to using the User Software CD, you can download printer drivers and the Fiery Link installer from the Fiery with the Installer WebTool (if the site administrator has enabled Internet access to the Fiery). For instructions, see Using the Installer WebTool on page 102. Once you download the printer les, the installation process is identical to installing from the User Software CD.

Setting up PostScript and/or PCL printing with Windows 95/98


To set up the Fiery as a PostScript or PCL printer, you must install the PostScript or PCL printer driver for Windows 95/98 and its corresponding printer description les. You must also congure a particular type of print connection between the workstation and the Fiery. If you are printing over a network, you will need to congure a network connection; if you are printing directly to the printer you will need to congure a parallel port connection.

Installing User Software on a Windows Computer

The procedure below describes installing the printer drivers from the User Software CD or from the Installer WebTool. The procedures after that describe setting up the print connection. If you are printing using SMB (Server Message Block) you can connect to the Fiery and install the printer drivers in a single procedure. To congure the Fiery for SMB printing, see Setting up SMB printing on Windows 95/98 on page 19. TO P OST S CRIPT PCL W INDOWS 95/98:

To set up the Fiery as a PostScript or PCL printer, you must install the PostScript or PCL Printer Driver for Windows NT 4.0 and its corresponding printer description les. You must also congure a particular type of print connection between the workstation and the Fiery. If you are printing over a network, you will need to congure a network connection; if you are printing directly to the printer you will need to congure a parallel port connection. The instructions below describe installing a printer locally. Adding a printer to a local system requires that you log in to your local Windows NT workstation (not the network server domain) and that you are a member of the Administrators group. The

Setting up the Fiery as a PostScript printer

Installing User Software on a Mac OS Computer

The general steps for installing the Fiery user software and setting up printing on a Mac OS computer are: Install the Adobe PostScript printer driver and PostScript Printer Description le (PPD) Set up the Fiery in the Chooser Install the Fiery utilities (ColorWise Pro Tools, Fiery Link, Fiery Downloader, and Fiery Spooler) Install the printer and screen fonts Install the ColorSync proles Copy additional color-reference and application-specic les from the User Software CD as needed In addition to using the User Software CD, you can download printer drivers and the Fiery Link installer from the Fiery with the Installer WebTool (if the site administrator has enabled Internet access to the Fiery). For instructions, see Using the Installer WebTool on page 102. Once you download the printer les, the installation process is identical to installing from the User Software CD.

Setting up the Fiery as a PostScript printer


To set up the Fiery as a PostScript printer, you must install the Adobe PostScript printer driver and the PPD le that corresponds to your copier. These les are provided on the User Software CD. Printer drivers provide a way to communicate information on print jobs between your applications, the Fiery, and any other PostScript printer connected to your computer. You can use the following procedures whether you are installing from the User Software CD or installing with printer les downloaded using the Installer WebTool.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

This chapter provides troubleshooting tips.

On a Windows computer
Setting up printing on Windows NT 4.0 Workstations
If you have problems installing the Fiery with Windows NT 4.0, try installing another PostScript printer (such as the Apple LaserWriter IIg), and then install the Fiery. Installing another printer ensures that all les are properly installed and available. For instructions, see your Windows NT 4.0 documentation. For additional information about problems you may encounter using the Adobe Printer Driver for Windows NT 4.0, see the Adobe README le (ReadMeNT.txt) included in the prntdrvr folder on the User Software CD.

Reinstalling the Adobe PostScript Printer Driver on Windows 95/98


If you are reinstalling the Adobe PostScript Printer Driver, delete any previous versions and related les before installing. Search for and delete all les named Efax*.* in the Windows\System folder. For additional information about problems you may encounter using the Adobe Printer Driver for Windows 95/98, see the Adobe README le (ReadMe9x.doc) included in the prntdrvr folder on the User Software CD.

Problems with the Fiery utilities on Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0


1. If you are using Windows 95/98, make sure that IPX/SPX and TCP/IP networking protocols are both enabled.

See Completing the Windows 95/98 IPX/SPX or IPX (Novell) connection on page 16.
2. If you are using Windows NT 4.0, make sure the TCP/IP networking protocol is enabled.

106

Troubleshooting

3.

Make sure the connection is congured correctly for your site.

To check the current conguration, launch a Fiery utility and choose Open from the File menu. Select the Fiery and click Modify to see current settings. If the settings are incorrect, you can change them in this dialog box.

On a Mac OS computer
Setting up the Fiery in the Chooser
If auto-setup does not work and you are prompted to select the PPD, select the appropriate Fiery le in your System:Extensions:Printer Descriptions folder. Select Fiery X12 Color Server PS or Fiery XP12 Color Server PS. Installing screen fonts If you experience problems installing the PostScript screen fonts from the User Software CD to the System:Fonts folder, try the following:
1. 2. Quit all applications and close all windows. Create a new folder and name it Uninstalled Fonts.

This folder must be located outside of the System folder.


3. Move fonts that you are not using from the System:Fonts folder to the Uninstalled Fonts folder. Install the fonts from the User Software CD to a folder called CD fonts. Copy the fonts to the System:Fonts folder. Create an aliases to the System:Fonts folder and the Uninstalled Fonts folder. Place both aliases on your desktop. When necessary, use the aliases to open both folders and move fonts between them.

4.

5. 6. 7.

If you have any applications running, you must quit and relaunch them in order to view and use the newly installed fonts. Alternately, you can try combining fonts from multiple suitcases into a single suitcase.
