Using the Fiery WebTools

Fiery WebTools reside on the RIP Station but can be accessed over the network from a
variety of platforms. The RIP Station functions as an Internet or intranet server, and
has a home page that lets remote users view server functions and manipulate jobs. The
only requirement for client computers is to use an Internet browser that supports the
Java language. The recommended browser versions that support Java are:
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0.2 or Netscape Communicator 4.0.2 for Windows
computers
• Netscape Communicator 4.0.1 for Mac OS computers
For information about preparing the RIP Station for WebTool access, see the Setup
Guide.
The RIP Station has its own home page, from which you can select the following
