Configuring Windows 95 workstations for
the Fiery utilities
To run the Fiery utilities, a Windows 95 workstation on an IPX network must have
IPX/SPX protocols loaded and bound to the network driver. There should be a
NetWare server on the network.
Before you begin, for Windows 95, install the IPX/SPX-compatible protocol and
Microsoft TCP/IP.
T F
O INSTALL THE IERY UTILITIES
1. Configure your NetWare server and perform Fiery X2 Setup.
2. Insert the Fiery X2 User Software CD in the client workstation and install the Fiery
utilities.
See Getting Started for installation instructions.
3. Before running the Fiery utilities, print a Configuration page.
See page 2-48 for details on printing the Configuration page.
4. Start the Fiery utilities and configure the connection (Getting Started).
Fiery X2 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0
When a Windows NT 4.0 computer is configured to connect to the Fiery X2 using
TCP/IP, it can print directly to the Fiery X2. 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 X2 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 computer.
If there are many Mac OS computers or other PostScript printers at the site, the
Windows NT 4.0 server can also use AppleTalk protocols for printing to the Fiery X2.
You can load AppleTalk on the Windows NT 4.0 server as an alternative to TCP/IP
(see page 4-25).
