2. 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).
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
independently to the Fiery X3e. However, if you are an administrator running a
Windows NT 4.0/2000 server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer, 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.
