Introduction
This manual is intended for anyone who is responsible for integrating the Fiery X3e
22C-KM Color Server into a business environment that includes networked personal
computers. After setting up the Fiery X3e 22C-KM Color Server and client
workstations, individual users can print to the Fiery X3e 22C-KM Color Server as a
high-performance PostScript or PCL copier.
This manual describes how to set up network servers and clients to use the Fiery X3e
22C-KM Color Server and how to install user software and set up printing from
Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS computers. For general information on using
the copier, your computer, your software, or your network, see the manuals that
accompany those products.
N OTE : The term “Fiery X3e” is used in this manual to refer to the Fiery X3e 22C-KM
Color Server. The term “copier” is used to refer to the 22C-KM . The name “Aero” is
used in illustrations to represent the Fiery X3e. The term “Windows” is used to refer to
Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and
Windows Server 2003, wherever appropriate. “Setup” is used to refer to configuring
the Fiery X3e for proper performance in your network environment, including settings
that affect all jobs. The administrator can perform Setup from Fiery WebSetup, and
Command WorkStation. Illustrations of Windows software may not necessarily reflect
the version of Windows that you use.
The Fiery X3e includes support for the Fiery WebTools™ and software for
Command WorkStation, which allow an operator to manage all jobs sent to the Fiery
X3e. Although it may not be the case at all sites, the documentation for this product
assumes the presence of an operator who controls and manages jobs sent by users
from remote workstations.
Any additional connectivity or administrative features specific to the copier are
described in the Printing Guide or the Release Notes.

Chapter 1:
Connecting to
the Network
Fiery X3e on the network
This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the Fiery X3e, and includes diagrams
that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation.
Check those references to find the information you need quickly.
Fiery X3e on the network
When the Fiery X3e is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery X3e 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 port 9100 is the printer server port number to
publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http
protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The http
protocol also supports IPP printing.
• 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 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.
When you add the Fiery X3e to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator
has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

Quick path to installation
The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems you can use to print and run
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” in the upper-left corner 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
configuration around a hub, rather than a bus arrangement. The design of physical
networks is beyond the scope of this manual.
If your 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 X3e with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be
operational at the same time.

Ethernet connection
For Ethernet connections, the Fiery X3e supports cabling, defined 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
X3e.
N OTE : The 100BaseT type supported by the Fiery X3e 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
•
E THERNET
BOARD
Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the Fiery X3e.
You must use a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable network cable for 100BaseT.

Chapter 2:
Setting up
Network Servers
Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network
servers—Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 servers—
that share printing to the Fiery X3e. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX
or TCP/IP protocols for communicating with the Fiery X3e. In addition, it
includes guidelines for setting up direct communication from
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 workstations or UNIX workstations,
where a network server is optional. This chapter also outlines the requirements for
users to print to the Fiery X3e and run Fiery utilities and WebTools.
The Fiery X3e can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare,
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003, and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent
directly from Windows or UNIX workstations. Because AppleShare servers require no
special configuration, they are not discussed in this chapter, except for use in a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 environment (see “Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP
network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003” in the following section).
If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003, proceed to the
following section. For information on UNIX workstations, proceed to page 2-17.
Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
When a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 computer is configured to
connect to the Fiery X3e using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the Fiery X3e. If
the computer shares the printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to
Windows clients. Client computers print to the Fiery X3e by printing to the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 print server. You can then monitor and
control printing at the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server computer.

2-2
Setting up Network Servers
Typical system combinations are:
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 Server; clients running
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 Workstation and Windows 98/Me
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 Workstation and
clients running Windows 98/Me
With TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can run Fiery utilities and WebTools from a
Windows computer.
Tips for experts—Windows with TCP/IP
Setting up printing from Windows using TCP/IP protocols is similar to setting up
UNIX workstations with TCP/IP. When TCP/IP network connections are made from
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 workstations, note the following:
•
Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery X3e and any workstations that will
print to it or run the Fiery utilities.
•
In Fiery X3e Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for the Fiery X3e.
Enter these addresses manually or use DHCP or BOOTP protocols to assign them
dynamically.
•
Make sure the Fiery X3e 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 X3e
as a remote printer.
For more information, see page 2-18.
•
For Windows, install the appropriate printer driver files on the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server.
For more information, see the User Software Installation Guide.
•
Repeat the installation for all users who print to the Fiery X3e.
Each server and workstation running the Fiery utilities with TCP/IP also needs the
TCP/IP protocol and the Fiery utility software.

Configuring a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server to
communicate with the Fiery X3e
To configure a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server to communicate with the
Fiery X3e, follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections in
this chapter and in your Microsoft documentation.
•
Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the server and configure it with an IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway.
•
Enter the host name of the Fiery X3e in the host database used by your system (see
page 2-4).
•
Perform Fiery X3e Setup.
•
On the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server, create a printer for each Fiery X3e
print connection, install the appropriate printer drivers, and (optionally) share the
printer on the network (see page 2-5).
•
Enter the host name and remote printer name of the Fiery X3e in the printer
connection. For more information, see page 2-18.
•
If the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server is also a workstation, install Fiery
utilities (see the User Software Installation Guide).

Setting up Network Servers
Adding the Fiery X3e to the TCP/IP network
If your TCP/IP network consists of Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 servers and
Windows clients, follow the procedures in this section. If the network includes UNIX
workstations, also see the procedures on page 2-19.
T O ADD THE F IERY X3 E TO A TCP/IP NETWORK WITH
W INDOWS NT 4.0/2000/S ERVER 2003 SERVER
1.
A
Register the IP address of the Fiery X3e in the host name database used by
your system.
For installations that do not have a network administrator or central host
name database, add the Fiery X3e to the hosts file on the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server. Also add it to the hosts file on any
workstations that have TCP/IP loaded and will use the Fiery utilities.
The Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 hosts file provides compatibility with the
UNIX hosts file. The hosts file is used as a local Domain Name Services (DNS)
equivalent. It has the same format as the /etc/hosts file on UNIX servers. The format
of the hosts entry is:
IP Address<TAB>host name<TAB>#comments
where <TAB> indicates that you press the Tab key.
To determine the IP address and server name of your system, print a Configuration
page (see page 7-8).
N OTE : If the Fiery X3e has already been defined in an /etc/hosts file or equivalent host
name database on a UNIX workstation on your network, we recommend you use the
same host name here as you used for the name of the remote printer in the
/etc/printcap file.

Perform Fiery X3e Setup to support TCP/IP printing.
Enter the options in Protocol Setup (IP address of the Fiery X3e, subnet mask, and
gateway address).

2-5
Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
Installing the Fiery X3e as a shared printer
The first step in creating a printer is installing the printer driver files, which give your
applications access to printer features. You can use the installation instructions in the
User Software Installation Guide for every workstation that will print directly and
independently to the Fiery X3e. However, if you are an administrator running a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server
2003 workstation, you can also create a printer and share it with clients on the
network. This allows clients who do not have permission to establish an independent
network connection to the Fiery X3e to print through the server.
You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the Fiery X3e printer
files. If you have not yet installed the Fiery X3e printer files on the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 print server computer, do so now, following
the instructions in the User Software Installation Guide. During installation, enter the
information necessary to share the Fiery X3e.
If you have already installed the Fiery X3e printer files on the computer you are using
as a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 print server, see your Windows
documentation for information about sharing the Fiery X3e.
If more than one Fiery X3e print connection is published (for example, if both the
Print queue and the Hold queue are published), you may want 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 X3e print connection.

2-6
Setting up Network Servers
Configuring clients of a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server
Each client of a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server is already using a network
protocol to communicate with the server. Each client can print to the Fiery X3e if it
has been shared by a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server, or
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 computer. In that case, the client does not
have to use the same network protocol to connect to the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server as the server uses to communicate with the
Fiery X3e.
TO
CONNECT AND PRINT TO THE F IERY X3 E SHARED
BY A W INDOWS NT 4.0/2000/S ERVER 2003 SERVER
•
For Windows 98/Me clients: Before printing, double-click the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server icon in the Network Neighborhood window,
and then double-click the printer name.
You are prompted to set up the printer. When you choose to set it up, the Add Printer
Wizard dialog box appears. Follow the procedures in the User Software
Installation Guide.
•
For Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 clients: Before printing, connect to the
print server computer and select the Fiery X3e. 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 appear dimmed, and unavailable
for changing. When a client chooses Print, the job is transmitted to the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 print server, and from there to the selected
print connection on the Fiery X3e. The job is listed in the Print Manager on the
client workstation, and the administrator can track it in the Fiery X3e window in the
Print Manager on the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 print server.

Fiery X3e on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
Configuring Windows computers without a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server
If your network does not have a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server, Windows
workstations can still print to the Fiery X3e. This method of printing is called
Windows, or SMB printing. In this type of network environment, computers running
Windows 98/Me and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 Workstations operate
in a peer-to-peer environment and communicate directly with the Fiery X3e when
users send print jobs.
Many of the same prerequisites for setting up printing through a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server also apply to setting up Windows
printing where a server is not present. The prerequisites are summarized in the
following list, and you can find more detail in your Microsoft documentation.
•
Print a Configuration page (see page 5-36).
Use the information on this page to determine the current Fiery X3e settings.
•
Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the computer (for Windows 98/Me, load File and
printer sharing for Microsoft Network. For Windows 2000/XP load Client for Microsoft
Networks).
•
In the Windows Network Control Panel, verify the Workgroup name of the computer.
Make sure that the Workgroup name is the same as the one listed in Fiery X3e Setup.
•
For Windows 98/Me, in the File and printer sharing for Microsoft Network Properties
dialog box, specify Automatic or Enabled for Browse Master, and select Yes for
LM Announce.
•
For Windows 2000/XP, in the Client for Microsoft Networks Properties dialog box,
configure the computer to allow file sharing, and then restart the computer.
•
Ping the Fiery X3e to verify TCP/IP communication is successful (see page 2-19).

Setting up Network Servers
Fiery X3e on a NetWare network
The NetWise™ features built into the Fiery X3e support the following network
operating environments:
• NetWare—NDS (Novell Directory Services)
• Servers running NetWare in bindery emulation mode
N OTE : The term “Netware” is used to refer to Netware 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x.
N OTE : 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.
N OTE : The iPrint feature available with NetWare 6.x is not supported.
The term “bindery server” is used to refer to a Novell file server running NetWare in
emulation mode. The term “NDS” is used to describe components of a NetWare
operating system running NetWare in native mode.
NetWare clients print to the Fiery X3e through the Novell network server. Server setup
and client network setup are outlined in this chapter, client printing setup is described
in the User Software Installation Guide, and printing is described in the Printing Guide.
The Fiery X3e can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over Ethernet network
topologies. During Fiery X3e Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used
for communication between the Fiery X3e and network servers. Frame type refers to
the format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when
the NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.

2-9
Fiery X3e on a NetWare network
Tips for experts—IPX networks
Setting up the Fiery X3e is similar to setting up any other PostScript printer on
the network.
The Fiery X3e with IPX connections has the following characteristics:
•
A minimum connection to the Fiery X3e consists of a NetWare file server, a NetWare
print server, and a NetWare queue.
•
A single directory tree and up to eight bindery servers can be configured
simultaneously.
•
The Fiery X3e 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 X3e.
Overview of IPX printing to the Fiery X3e
NetWare file 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 file server and spooled to the NetWare server disk,
freeing up the client workstation.
You must give the NetWare queue names a specific extension corresponding to the
Fiery X3e print connection, as follows:
_print
_hold
_direct
N OTE : These extension names must be in English and in all lowercase letters.
2
2-10
Setting up Network Servers
You do not need to rerun Setup when you add or remove a NetWare queue; however,
you should restart the Fiery X3e after you create or remove a queue.
When the Fiery X3e is configured 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 X3e. For example, jobs from
the NetWare queue with the _print extension are sent to the Fiery X3e Print queue.
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.
Configuring a NetWare server for printing
The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare file server so networked users
can print to the Fiery X3e from their workstations, and the Fiery X3e can obtain print
jobs from the NetWare server.
For each NetWare file server that you configure, 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 file server.
• For NetWare installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 2-12).
• For NetWare in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page 2-12).
• For NetWare in bindery emulation, set up a file server, print server, and print queue
for the Fiery X3e (see page 2-13).
With bindery services, you can route all Fiery X3e print jobs through the same
NetWare file server, or you can configure more than one file server to handle Fiery
X3e jobs.
The functions you perform on the Novell server, the Fiery X3e, and the client
workstation are summarized in the following tables. The first table applies to NDS
connections, and the second to bindery connections. Complete the operations in the
left column, then the center column, then the right column.

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 that defines the location of the object
in the directory tree. For the Fiery X3e, you are mainly concerned with defining 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 defined as properties of each object.
Rights are established by network administrators.
Setting the NetWare bindery context
You can connect only one directory tree to the Fiery X3e. If you need to connect
additional NetWare servers, you can do so by using bindery emulation. You can
connect up to eight bindery servers to the Fiery X3e.
N OTE : The file server you select must not be in the same tree as the one you selected in
NDS Setup.
In order to set up the NetWare server in bindery emulation mode for printing to the
Fiery X3e, 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 X3e will be created.
The container defines the “bindery context” for your network structure.
• Edit the network startup file to set the bindery context.
• Activate the new bindery context.

Fiery X3e on a NetWare network
Setting up a NetWare print queue for bindery
For NetWare in emulation mode, the NetWare print server and print queue for
the Fiery X3e are created and configured from NetWare Print Console (PCONSOLE),
a NetWare utility that is stored in the NetWare PUBLIC directory.
As with NDS, you can create several NetWare entities on a Novell server, and you can
then select them in Network Setup.
Setting up NetWare Windows clients for printing
Before setting up client workstations for printing, perform Network Setup (see
page 4-9), and verify that the settings reflect the entities you created in the NetWare
administrator utilities (see page 2-10).
N OTE : For printing to the Fiery X3e, connect all Windows clients to a NetWare server
and permit them to connect to the Netware print server or servers on which you
defined a NetWare print queue for the Fiery X3e.
After the Novell server and the Fiery X3e have been set up, client setup consists of:
• Installing the networking protocol, binding it to the network adapter card, and
permitting the client to log in to the NetWare file server.
On Windows 98/Me workstations, load both the IPX/SPX-compatible protocol and
the Client for NetWare Networks from the Network Control Panel.
On Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 workstations, install Client Services for
NetWare. Use the CSNW option in the Control Panel to set printing options and
specify a preferred NetWare server.
• Setting up the Fiery X3e as a PostScript printer by installing a PostScript printer
driver and the Fiery X3e PPD (PostScript printer description).
• Adding a network port and connecting the workstation to one or more NetWare
queues that have been defined for the Fiery X3e.
• Installing Fiery X3e software, such as color reference files.
For details, see the User Software Installation Guide.

Setting up Network Servers
Fiery X3e on a NetWare network with NDPS
The Fiery X3e supports printing over a NetWare 5.x or later network running either
the TCP/IP protocols or the IPX protocol. For pure IP printing, the Fiery X3e takes
advantage of features in NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services). For IPX printing,
the Fiery X3e supports the PServer service in Bindery emulation or through NDS
(Novell Directory Services). For more information on IPX-based printing, see “Fiery
X3e on a NetWare network” on page 2-8.
N OTE : 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.
NDPS is not like earlier queue-based versions of NetWare printing. Instead, you use an
NDPS Manager and a Printer Agent, which control the tasks previously handled by a
print queue, print server, and spooler. You can also make the printer driver available
for clients to download from Windows 98/Me and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server
2003 computers.
During Fiery X3e Setup, you select the frame type or types that will be used for
communication between the Fiery X3e and network servers. Frame type refers to the
format of a communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when the
NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.
Tips for experts—NetWare networks
Setting up the Fiery X3e in an NDPS environment is similar to setting up any other
PostScript printer on the network. When setting up the Fiery X3e in such an
environment, refer to the following information:
•
Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery X3e and for any workstations that
will print to it or run Fiery utilities.
•
In Fiery X3e Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for the Fiery X3e. You can enter these manually or use DHCP or BOOTP
protocols to assign the addresses dynamically.
•
Bidirectional communication features in NDPS are not supported on the Fiery X3e.

Fiery X3e on a NetWare network with NDPS
Configuring a NetWare server for printing with NDPS
Before you begin
The following procedure assumes NDPS has been installed during NetWare 5.x or
later installation and that a Broker is running on the server. Unless you have manually
unloaded the Broker, it loads and runs when you install NDPS. Make sure you are
using the latest NetWare service pack and Novell gateway. Finally, create an NDPS
Manager. For more information, see your NetWare documentation.
In Fiery X3e Setup, make sure you have enabled TCP/IP and LPD printing on the
Fiery X3e. You can ping the Fiery X3e to verify that TCP/IP communication is
successful.
Setting up the Fiery X3e printer driver
You first need to create a directory for Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 or a
folder for Windows 98/Me in the NetWare server for NDPS to install the
corresponding printer driver files from the User Software CD.

Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations
When a UNIX workstation is configured with the lpd protocol and connected to the
Fiery X3e over a TCP/IP network, it can print directly to the Fiery X3e.
Setting up UNIX workstations requires an administrator with root privileges. After the
initial configuration, UNIX users simply submit print jobs to a named printer.
The job management tools, along with the other Fiery utilities and WebTools, are
unavailable 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
X3e can use the job management tools to manage print jobs that originate from all
workstations on the network.
2
2-18
Setting up Network Servers
Tips for experts—UNIX workstations
Setting up the Fiery X3e in a UNIX environment has the same requirements as setting
up any printer or new device:
•
A distinct IP address is required for the Fiery X3e as well as for each workstation on
the network.
•
A name must be selected for the Fiery X3e that goes with the IP address.
•
The IP address of the Fiery X3e must be registered for the network in a host database,
and also on the Fiery X3e itself.
•
At least one print connection (Print or Hold) must be published.
The following information applies especially to the Fiery X3e:
•
The Fiery X3e is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.
•
The Fiery X3e has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with it
successfully.
For details, see the following section.
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or rp in the
/etc/printcap file) in configuring the Fiery X3e must be one of the following:
print
hold
The remote printer name is also used when setting up a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 workstation or
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server to connect to the Fiery X3e over TCP/IP.
Enter the remote printer name when you set up your
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue
on that (lpd host) server” in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box.
For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue
Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor
dialog box.

2-19
Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations
Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have
a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator
to obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can
print directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print
server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage
in placing another print server between a workstation and the Fiery X3e. 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.

the lp command to send a job to the Fiery X3e.
•
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send
print jobs to the Fiery X3e from their applications or from a command prompt.
When Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 users print from applications, they can
set print options with the driver but not from the UNIX command line.
2
2-21
Fiery X3e 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 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 workstation that has TCP/IP
protocols loaded, you can use Command WorkStation or Fiery Downloader not only
to view the list of jobs and to print and remove jobs but also to download fonts
and files directly to the Fiery X3e. For more information on these job management
tools, see the Job Management Guide.
Even without the Fiery utilities, you can:
• Set up the Fiery X3e to print a log of printed jobs automatically after every 55 jobs.
• Print a Job Log manually at any time from the Command WorkStation
Functions menu (see the Job Management Guide).

3-1
Chapter 3:
Preparing for
Fiery X3e Setup
Levels of access and control
To prepare for printing at your site, you must do some initial Fiery X3e configuration,
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 X3e system
software is structured in order to configure and use the Fiery X3e system correctly.
Levels of access and control
When you configure the Fiery X3e during Setup, you (as system administrator)
implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections,
passwords, and access to WebTools. The level of control you implement can range
from minimum to moderate to maximum—or none at all.
• Minimum control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local
network can control all printing and Fiery X3e 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.
• Maximum control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment
where an administrator or operator controls the job flow and all printing; jobs sent
by users are spooled (stored) to the Fiery X3e disk until the operator decides it is
time to print them. In addition, only the administrator and operator have access to
job management tools. This is the recommended level of control.
N OTE : The term “job management tools” is used in this manual to refer to
Command WorkStation, Command WorkStation LE, and Fiery Spooler.
Fiery X3e print connections
The Fiery X3e 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 configure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly
checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and Direct connection give remote
users more direct access to the Fiery X3e than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not
publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where maximum
control is desired.
3
3-2
Preparing for Fiery X3e 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 can enable the Printed queue and specify the maximum
number of jobs retained in the queue (see page 4-8). Reprinting jobs in the Printed
queue requires the job management tools.
To use the Fiery utilities and WebTools, you must enable at least one of the
print connections.
Hold queue
Jobs sent to the Hold queue are spooled to the Fiery X3e hard disk drive for printing at
a later time or for reprinting. Because the Hold queue is a storage place, jobs sent to it
cannot proceed through the printing process until the operator intervenes using the
job management tools (see the Job Management Guide).
Print queue
This is the standard Fiery X3e queue. Jobs sent to the Print queue are processed and
printed in the order they are received. Jobs prioritized by an operator with the job
management tools and jobs sent via the Direct connection can take priority over jobs
sent to the Print queue.
Direct connection
The Direct connection transmits jobs directly to the Fiery X3e, but only when the
Fiery X3e is Idle. If the Fiery X3e is busy, the job remains at the user workstation until
the Fiery X3e is ready. The job is then processed as soon as the previous job is finished
and before the next queued job is processed.
N OTE : The Direct connection is not supported for LPR printing.
Jobs sent to the Direct connection are not stored on the Fiery X3e hard disk drive, and
cannot be selected for reprinting, moving, or deletion. Therefore, the Direct
connection provides a measure of security for sensitive files. Jobs sent to the Direct
connection do appear in the Job Log, for accounting purposes.
N OTE : To download fonts to the Fiery X3e, you must publish the Direct connection.
3
3-3
Levels of access and control
Passwords
You can implement passwords as a means of controlling access to Fiery X3e functions.
The Fiery X3e allows you to set the following passwords in Setup:
• Administrator—remotely from Command WorkStation, or locally from the Control
Panel
• Operator—from Command WorkStation or Fiery WebSetup
N OTE : By default, no passwords are set on the Fiery X3e. If you do not specifically
set passwords, all users will have administrator privileges, which include access to
important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords), and job control.
We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to protect
the Fiery X3e 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, controlling print jobs from the job management tools,
overriding job settings, clearing the Fiery X3e of all job data, performing calibration,
defining default color profiles, and setting default values for print options.
When performing a function from the Fiery X3e Control Panel that prompts you for
the Administrator password, you must enter it promptly. Otherwise, the Fiery X3e
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 X3e state.
3
3-4
Preparing for Fiery X3e Setup
WebTools
The Fiery X3e supports Internet or intranet access with WebTools from Windows and
Mac OS computers. To enable use of WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:
• Enable TCP/IP.
• Set an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery X3e.
• Enable Web Services.
For more information, see Chapter 6.
You can set passwords to control access to WebTools features. If you do not specifically
set these passwords, all users have access to all WebTools functions (see page 3-3).
WebTools include Status, WebLink, WebScan™ WebDownloader, WebSetup, and
Installer.
Status
The Status WebTool provides you with current information on the jobs processing and
printing on the Fiery X3e. It is not affected by passwords. For more information, see
the Printing Guide.
3
3-5
Levels of access and control
WebLink
WebLink provides all users with a link to an address on the Internet. To change the
WebLink Internet address, see page 6-3. This function requires the Administrator
password, if one has been set (see “Passwords” on page 3-3).
N OTE : If you do not set the Administrator password, any user can change the WebLink
address, which affects all users. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you set an
Administrator password.
WebScan
With WebScan, you can retrieve scanned documents from a computer on the Internet
or your organization’s intranet. It is not affected by passwords. For more information,
see the Printing Guide.
WebDownloader
WebDownloader allows you to print PostScript, EPS, PDF versions 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4,
and TIFF version 6.0 files directly to the Fiery X3e without first opening the file in an
application. It is not affected by passwords.
WebSetup
WebSetup allows you to view and modify Fiery X3e Setup options from a remote
workstation. This function requires an Administrator password. For more information,
see Chapter 5.
N OTE : WebSetup is supported on Windows computers only.
Installer
The Installer WebTool allows users to download installers for printer drivers directly
from the Fiery X3e. It is not affected by passwords. For more information, see the
User Software Installation Guide.

Preparing for Fiery X3e Setup
Control level scenarios
Typical scenarios of access and control, ranging from minimum control to maximum
control, are described in this section. Choose the scenario that best matches your site
requirements, and refer to the corresponding number in the following table for
guidance on how to configure your system for those requirements.
N OTE : We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to
prevent unauthorized changes to system settings.
1.
No designated administrator or operator (Minimum control—not recommended)
All users have equal access to all system functions including Setup, clearing the Fiery
X3e, deleting printer fonts, setting the WebLink address, performing calibration,
printing to all Fiery X3e print connections, and managing all jobs from the job
management tools.
2.
An administrator but no 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 X3e print connections, and managing all jobs from the job
management tools.
3.
An administrator and an operator
Only an administrator can perform Setup, calibration, and other administrator
functions, and only an operator or administrator can control jobs from the job

About Setup
Setup configures the Fiery X3e to communicate with other devices and manage print
jobs. You must perform Setup the first time you turn on the Fiery X3e after new system
software is loaded, or any time Server software is reinstalled. An initial Setup using
default settings is adequate for allowing users to print to the Fiery X3e and use the
WebTools. When your network or user printing environment changes, you can change
Setup options accordingly.
3
3-8
Preparing for Fiery X3e Setup
The first time you perform Setup, you must use the Fiery X3e Control Panel.
Configure, at a minimum, Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup, in that
sequence. After the initial Setup, you can change Setup options from the Control Panel
(page 4-3) or Command WorkStation. Most Setup options can be set using any of
these methods.
If you do not configure the remaining Setups, the Fiery X3e uses default settings. You
need to make settings appropriate for the printing environment at your site.
Network server setup requirements
For Novell, and Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 (using TCP/IP) networks, you
must configure the network servers for printing to the Fiery X3e before you configure
Fiery X3e network settings in Setup. For chapter references to information about
network server Setup, see the diagrams in Chapter 1.
To configure network settings in Setup, you must have a live network connection, so
the Fiery X3e can query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.
Whenever the configuration of the Fiery X3e, 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.
N OTE : You must configure the Fiery X3e with the correct Windows
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 domain name. This is especially important for
Windows printing, also known as SMB printing.
N OTE : The Fiery X3e does not support the Windows 2000/Windows 2003 Server
Active Directory Service. When you use the Fiery X3e in a Windows 2000 server
environment, assign the Fiery X3e to a Domain or Workgroup.
Ensuring the copier connection
Complete the following steps before you configure the Fiery X3e and the workstations
that will print to the Fiery X3e. A service technician will have performed some
initial installation.

choose the language for Fiery X3e Control Panel menus and messages. If you do not
configure a particular Setup option, the Fiery X3e uses default settings. Make sure the
settings are appropriate for the printing environment at your site.
N OTE : Engine Setup is performed after the following setup procedures. Engine Setup is
explained on page 4-57.
Fiery X3e Setup from the Control Panel
Setup performed from the Control Panel configures the Fiery X3e 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 X3e
• Printer Setup to specify how print jobs and queues are managed

Bindery Setup
Use Bindery Setup if you have already configured one or more bindery servers (file
servers running NetWare in bindery emulation) with a Print Server and a Print Queue
for Fiery X3e jobs. Before entering bindery settings, be sure the Fiery X3e is connected
to the network and the NetWare file server is running. If Guest Login is not
supported, you need a valid user name and password.
N OTE : The terms NetWare server, Novell server, and IPX file server are in common use
and are used here interchangeably to mean the server on an IPX network running
Novell NetWare networking software.
Bindery Setup menu
Because you can set up more than one Novell server to handle Fiery X3e print jobs, an
additional menu is displayed for this purpose. The options are:
• Add File Server—creates a new file server connection to the Fiery X3e. You can set
up a maximum of eight file server connections. After you have finished adding a new
server, you return to the Bindery Setup menu, where you can set up another server.
• View Server List—displays the list of file servers that have already been selected to
communicate with the Fiery X3e.
• Edit Connection—lets you change the NetWare Print Server that will print to the
Fiery X3e.
• Remove File Server—lets you disconnect the Fiery X3e from a file server to which it
is currently connected. Remove a file server when you want to reduce the number of
connections to the Fiery X3e or reassign the connection to a different NetWare
file server.
• Exit Bindery Setup—lets you exit this menu after you have added all servers, viewed
a list of file servers, or removed a file server from the list.

Color Setup options
Color Setup allows you to set defaults the Fiery X3e uses to control color output.
Mac OS and Windows users who use the printer drivers provided on the User
Software CD can override most of these defaults on a job-by-job basis. However, users
printing from UNIX or DOS command lines cannot override defaults from their
applications. Therefore, you must set defaults in Color Setup.
The preferred method for setting color defaults is to use Color Setup, part of the
ColorWise Pro Tools. The color options are described in this section for your
reference. For more information about these defaults, see the Printing Guide and
Color Guide.
N OTE : In addition to the defaults described in this section, additional settings are
available to Mac OS and Windows users from the printer drivers.

OPTIONS
In the following list of options, 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 monitor
to printed output. EFIRGB is based on the reference points used in the creation of the
Fiery X3e software. sRGB is based on an average of a large number of PC monitors.
Apple Standard is the standard reference point for Apple’s ColorSync software.

Performing Setup from the Control Panel
Rendering Style
Photographic/Presentation/Abs. Colorimetric/Rel. Colorimetric [Presentation]
The color rendering dictionary (CRD) defines 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.
CMYK Simulation Profile
SWOP-Coated (EFI)/DIC (EFI)/Euroscale (EFI)/None [SWOP-Coated (EFI) in North
America, Euroscale (EFI) elsewhere]
CMYK simulation allows color correction to simulate printed output on a commercial
press, so that the Fiery X3e output can be used for proofing. The SWOP-Coated
standard is used in the United States, DIC in Japan, and Euroscale in Europe. Custom
simulations are user defined and named. The simulations provided with the Fiery X3e
have the designation “EFI” after their names.
If users create and load custom simulations on the Fiery X3e with ColorWise Pro
Tools, these also appear in the list of simulations. A custom simulation can be selected
as the default simulation. For more information about custom simulations, see the
Color Guide.
CMYK Simulation Method
Quick/Full (Source GCR)/Full (Output GCR) [Full (Output GCR)]
Quick simulation assumes that the copier toners match the printer’s inks, and all
changes affect only one color (C, M, Y, or K) at a time. Full (Source GCR) simulation
allows for more flexibility in matching toner to ink and all changes interact to maintain
a better color balance. Full (Output GCR) offers accurate proofing by providing a
colorimetric conversion of all four plates. In this simulation method, the black (K)
plate is mixed into the CMY plates, then reseparated based on the Output profile.

RGB Separation
Output/Simulation [Output]
This option defines how the Fiery X3e processes RGB jobs. Select Output for RGB
jobs that you print to the final output device. Select Simulation to simulate an output
device that is not the device to which you are printing.
Pure Black Text/Graphics
On/Off [On]
The Pure Black Text/Graphics option optimizes black text and line art. The option
also minimizes toner use for documents consisting of both color and black-only pages.
With this option On, black text and line art are printed with black toner only.
With the option Off, black text and line art are printed using all four colors of toner.
For more information, see the Color Guide.
Black Overprint
Text / Text/Graphics / Off [Text/Graphics]
With this option set to Text or Text/Graphics, black text and graphics overprints on
colored backgrounds. With this option set to Off, black text and graphics knocks out
color backgrounds. Generally this option should be Text or Text/Graphics. For more
information, see the Color Guide.
Spot Color Matching
On/Off [On]
With this option On, the Fiery X3e uses an internal lookup table to print the best
equivalents of PANTONE colors. With this option Off, PANTONE colors are printed
using the CMYK values defined in the original applications. For more information, see
the Color Guide.

Print Master. —Specify whether to print a master document when it is created using
FreeForm. If you select Yes, when a user creates a master document, it is Ripped, held
in the Fiery X3e Hold queue, and printed for your reference. If you select No, the
master document is only Ripped and held in the Hold queue.
Default Paper Sizes. —Specify whether to print on US paper sizes (for example, Letter,
Legal, Tabloid), or Metric paper sizes (for example, A4 or A3) by default. When no
paper size is defined within a PostScript file, jobs are printed on Letter-size paper if you
select US, or A4 paper if you select Metric.
Print Cover Page. —Specify whether the Fiery X3e prints a cover page (job summary)
at the end of each print job. If you choose 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 Substitution. —Specify whether to substitute Courier for unavailable
fonts. When you choose Off, jobs requiring fonts unavailable on the Fiery X3e hard
disk drive generate a PostScript error and do not print. This setting does not apply to
PDF files; font substitution occurs automatically for PDF files.
Print to PS Error. —Specify whether the Fiery X3e should print the available portion of
a print job when it encounters a PostScript error. In general, this option should be No.
• When you choose No, the 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 X3e. You can view the job and the error
information from the job management tools.
• When you choose Yes, the portion of the job processed before the error occurred
is printed.

Setting passwords
You can set or change the Administrator password for the Fiery X3e. Anyone with the
Administrator password can modify the Setup options, and control the flow and order
of print jobs with the job management tools.
When the Fiery X3e is installed, there is no password. If you do not create an
Administrator password, users are not required to enter a password to modify the
Setup or use the administrator functions in the job management tools. If an
Administrator password has been set previously, you are required to enter it when you
run Setup. Use the up and down arrow buttons to select the characters and the left and
right arrow buttons to move between them (see “Types of Setup screens” on page 4-5).

Administering the Fiery X3e
Passwords
You can set, change, and remove passwords for the Fiery X3e. These passwords, specific
to the Server process, have different uses than the Windows Administrator and
Operator passwords. Keep track of the passwords you set for each.
Administrator—Controls access to Setup; Administrator privileges also include
Operator privileges.
Operator—Controls access to job management functions via the job
management tools.
N OTE : For more information on Fiery X3e passwords and the access privileges they
allow, see page 3-3.
By default, no passwords are set. If you do not specifically set passwords, all users will
have access to important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords) and job
control. We strongly recommend that you set at least an Administrator password to
protect the Fiery X3e from unauthorized changes to Setup.
7
7-5
TO
Clearing the Fiery X3e
SET OR CHANGE A PASSWORD
1.
Select the password you want to change.
2.
Type the password in both the Enter New Password and Verify New Password fields.
Passwords are case-sensitive and can be any combination of letters and numbers up to
19 characters. You must enter the password exactly the same way both times. The new
password remains in effect until you change it.
TO

fields.
If you forget the Administrator password, contact your authorized service
representative to reinstall Fiery X3e system software. This clears the Administrator
password and allows you to set a new one.
Clearing the Fiery X3e
The Clear Server command allows you to clear all queued print jobs from the Fiery
X3e—jobs in the Fiery X3e Print, Hold, and Printed queues. Jobs can also be deleted,
either individually or as a group, using the job management tools. Clear Server also
clears all jobs archived on the Fiery X3e hard disk drive, the index of archived jobs, and
finally, all FreeForm masters and the index of FreeForm masters.
To clear the Fiery X3e, scroll through the Setup menu and choose Clear Server. You
are asked to confirm your selection. If the Administrator password has been set, you
are prompted to enter it.

7-6
Administering the Fiery X3e
Managing address books
The E-mail Service feature allows an administrator to import a list of e-mail addresses
to the Fiery X3e by sending e-mail messages to the Fiery X3e.
N OTE : E-mail messages can be sent only from an administrator account.
The Fiery X3e supports the following address books:
• User—a generic address book used primarily for Scan to E-mail. This address book
is used for outgoing e-mail only.
• Admin—includes users with administrative access. Administrative access allows you
to modify the address book, get the current address book from the Fiery X3e, and
cancel or status any print job.
• Print—includes users who have print access. Only users whose e-mail addresses are
in the Print address book are authorized to submit jobs via e-mail to the Fiery X3e.
Unauthorized users receive an e-mail reply that their job was not accepted by the
Fiery X3e for printing.
• Fax—an address book used for Scan to Internet FAX. This address book is used for
outgoing e-mail only.
E-mail Service also allows the administrator to overwrite the address book, append new
addresses, remove addresses, and retrieve current addresses on the Fiery X3e.
When a print job is submitted via e-mail, the Fiery X3e first checks the Print address
book. If the user’s e-mail address does not match any entry in the Print address book,
the job will not print. Instead, the user will receive an e-mail stating that the print job
was not accepted.
The default wildcard character “*@*” is stored in the Print address book. This allows
any user to print to the Fiery X3e until the administrator adds the first entry in the
Print address book.
7
7-7
Managing address books
The administrator can manage the address books by sending an e-mail to the Fiery X3e
with command codes in the Subject and Message fields. The Fiery X3e responds by
e-mail to these commands with information about each request. When managing
address books, see the following table.

Printing a Configuration page from the Control Panel
The Configuration page lists all the settings in effect in the current Setup.
After you have finished running Setup, print a Configuration page to confirm your
settings. You can also print the Configuration page from Command WorkStation (for
details, see page 5-36).
After you make changes to Setup and choose Exit Setup, the Fiery X3e restarts. This
allows the Fiery X3e to recognize the new settings and display them properly on the
Configuration page. Allow the Fiery X3e to restart and return to Idle before printing a
Configuration page. In particular, the restart is necessary if you specified the DHCP or
BOOTP protocol to obtain an IP address automatically for the Fiery X3e.
Post the current Configuration page near the server for quick reference. Users need the
information on this page, such as the current printer default settings.
Other pages you can print from the Control Panel of the Fiery X3e or from
Command WorkStation include the Test Page, Font List, and Job Log. For
information on these pages, see the Job Management Guide.

Maintaining optimal Fiery X3e performance
The Fiery X3e does not require maintenance. Beyond the obvious requirements of
servicing and maintaining the copier and replenishing consumables, you can improve
the overall performance of your system by doing the following:
•
Make the best use of your network connections
Publish only connections that will be used; the Fiery X3e 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 Configuration page. Eliminate the
connections that are not being used. It is easy to re-establish them when needed.
•
Leave less urgent jobs to times when there is less network traffic or printing
You can print recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent to the Hold queue.
At low-traffic 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.
7
7-10
•
Administering the Fiery X3e
Reduce unnecessary Two-Way Communication
Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may
have a significant effect on Fiery X3e performance.
•
Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Fiery X3e
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 offloading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Fiery X3e is
frequently low, you can disable the Printed queue (in Server Setup) and choose not
to publish the Hold queue (in Printer Setup).
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.
Shutting down, rebooting, and restarting the Fiery X3e
Generally, you can leave the Fiery X3e and the copier running all the time. This section
describes how to reboot, shut down, and restart the Fiery X3e when necessary.
Shutting down and rebooting the Fiery X3e
You may need to shut down the Fiery X3e for service, or reboot the entire Fiery X3e
system. When you do so, fonts that have been downloaded to the hard disk are not
deleted. Print jobs in the Hold queue, the Printed queue, and jobs that have been
processed but not printed are not deleted; they will be available for printing when you
restart the Fiery X3e.

No NetWare print
server found.
No print server was found when Fiery X3e queried the file
server you selected.
You must configure a print server and a print queue for
every NetWare file server that will handle Fiery X3e print
jobs (see page 2-10).

Novell error code, followed by
a message.
Novell NetWare has reported an error. Command
WorkStation reports the error number and displays a
brief message.
For the most common errors (listed in the following table),
a screen is displayed that allows you to retry the action that
evoked the error, such as adding a server. If that is
not possible, you are prompted to notify the Novell
administrator, who will need to troubleshoot the network.
Consult NetWare Administrator documentation for
further explanation of Novell error codes.
In Network Setup, when you configure the IPX (Novell) connection, the Fiery X3e
queries the network for Novell file servers and trees, and attaches to them temporarily.
If a guest login is enabled, it is used. If not, you are prompted to log in from
Command WorkStation.

A-4
Troubleshooting
If the selected NetWare file server or tree does not have a guest account, or if the guest
account has expired or been disabled by the NetWare supervisor, you are prompted to
notify the IPX (Novell) administrator. In that case, there are two options:
• Enable a guest account on the NetWare server or tree for the purpose of setup.
• Log in with a different account. At the ENTER LOGIN NAME screen, change the default
name (guest) to supervisor or enter another valid login name. When you are
prompted for a password, enter the correct password for the account you named.
For any Novell error, make sure:
• Your IPX (Novell) network is connected to the Fiery X3e.
• The NetWare server you are trying to access is running.
• The Novell network has been configured with at least one print server and queue for
the Fiery X3e.
• You have the appropriate permissions and login information, including user name
and password, if necessary.
• The Fiery X3e is configured with the correct frame types for communication with
the desired Novell servers.

Runtime error messages
For error messages related to canceling jobs and printing, including the Disk Full
message and alerts to load media, see the Job Management Guide. These messages are
reported by the job management tools.
You can turn on PostScript error reporting as a print option from Mac OS
applications.
Printer not found
Most failures to find a printer on the network are due to conflicting or missing name or
address settings for the Fiery X3e. You must enter names in specific places. The
required names are:
• TCP/IP host name (also known as the DNS name), which is defined by your
organization.
Enter the host name as the Server Name in Fiery X3e Setup.
• Remote printer (internal machine) name. Use one of the following:
print
hold
N OTE : If you change the DNS name (also known as the TCP/IP host name) of the
Fiery X3e, you must reconfigure one of the Fiery utilities on each workstation.

Troubleshooting
Cannot connect to Fiery X3e with Fiery utilities
If users cannot connect to the Fiery X3e, check the following:
• Fiery X3e Setup—the appropriate network protocol must be enabled, with the
correct parameters (for example, for TCP/IP, the IP address), and you must publish
either the Print queue or Hold queue.
You can check these settings quickly by printing a Configuration page.
• On the client workstation—the appropriate network protocol(s) must be loaded,
and your Windows directory should contain a configured Efinl.ini file.
Cannot connect to the Fiery X3e with Command WorkStation or Command
WorkStation LE
If there is a problem connecting to the Fiery X3e, an error message is displayed.
The problem can occur when:
• The Fiery X3e is initially turned on
• The Fiery X3e restarts
• You have changed settings affecting the server address and have not reconfigured the
connection to the server
If you see this problem, try the following solutions, in this order:
• A remote workstation running Fiery utilities or WebTools may be interfering by
obtaining status information. If possible, close the remote application, and try to
connect again.
• Restart the Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE software and try
to connect again.
• Check the configuration of the connection and modify it, if necessary, or delete the
Efinl.ini file and start over with the process of configuring the connection, as
described in the User Software Installation Guide.
• Restart the Fiery X3e.
For information on other error conditions, see the Job Management Guide.
