Displaying Job Attributes
For any additional job attributes that are not displayed in Command WorkStation, you can
add those fields or attributes by right-clicking the Command WorkStation status bar and
selecting the attribute from the pull-down menu. After you do this, those additional
attributes appear in the jobs that have them.
Unsupported file formats
Unsupported file formats (.jpeg, .gif, .html) appear in the file format list in
WebDownloader. Do not download these file formats using WebDownloader. Although
the Fiery EX2101 Printer Controller does not support these files directly, you can open the
file in the application in which it was created and then print the file.
VPS and PPML
Contrary to statements in the user documentation, VPS and PPML are not supported.
Microsoft PowerPoint
The background does not print in PowerPoint. To work around this, select Color in the
Microsoft portion of the printer driver.
Mixed Paper Sizes in Microsoft Word Duplex
For a duplex Microsoft Word job, if the job contains 8.5 x 11-LEF and 11 x 17 duplex, the
11 x 17 sheets must be separated in one of two ways:
• Using Microsoft Word, insert an 8.5 x 11-LEF sheet in between the 11 x 17 sheets.
• Using Mixed Media, for simplex 11 x 17, set the pages to duplex off.
For duplex 11 x 17, set the pages to duplex Top-Top.
If the job contains 8.5 x 11-LEF and 11 x 17 and is not a duplex job, you can use hole
punch, staple, and Z-fold without making any additional changes.
Adobe Acrobat 5.0 booklet
If you select the Negative option and select settings other than the default settings for
Booklet Front Cover Mode or Booklet Back Cover Mode, unexpected results may occur
when printing an Acrobat 5.0 booklet job. For example, the next page of the cover may
print white. To avoid this, if you print a booklet job with the Negative option using Acrobat
5.0, make sure that the booklet cover modes are set to the default settings.
Adobe Acrobat 5.0 stapled jobs
When you print a stapled job using the Windows 98 Postscript printer driver, the job may
not staple in the location specified. For example, if you print an 8.5 x 11 LEF job and specify
Upper Left for Staple Mode, the job is stapled upper right. If you print an 8.5 x 11 LEF job
and specify Upper Right for Staple Mode, the job is stapled lower right. If this happens, use
the PCL driver or use SEF.
Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and 6.0 PCL duplex jobs
Duplex jobs do not print properly when you print them from the PCL printer driver. For
example, if you print an 8.5 x 11 SEF job and specify Top-Top for Duplex, the job is printed
Top-Bottom. If you print an 8.5 x 11 SEF job and specify Top-Bottom for Duplex, the job is
printed Top-Top. If this happens, use the PostScript driver or use LEF.
