5 Preparing to print
Configuring the network server
If you require a network server, you must configure that server to provide client access to
the Fiery as a color printer. To configure a network server in a Windows or UNIX network
environment, see the
(using TCP/IP) networks, the network servers must be configured for printing to the Fiery
before you configure Fiery network settings in Setup. For more information, see the
Configuration Guide
Setting up the Fiery from the Control Panel
Setup configures the Fiery to communicate with other devices and manage print jobs. You
must perform Setup the first time you turn on the Fiery after new system software is loaded
or any time Server software is reinstalled. Initial Setup must be performed at the Fiery
Control Panel.
Perform the following Setup options in the order listed:

To configure network settings in Setup, you need a live network connection so the Fiery can
query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.
To perform Setup from the Control Panel, select one menu after another and enter
information about your Fiery and your network and printing environment. In each Setup
screen, the last line of the display shows the name of the current Setup menu. Most of the
menus you see are displayed on the Control Panel Map, a flow chart you can print from the
Control Panel.
