At each computer from which users print to 
the Fiery X3e:

• Install the appropriate printer files and connect 

to one or more queues.

• Install Fiery® utilities and an Internet browser 

for those computers that will use them.

• Verify the Fiery X3e in the list of printers and 

run a test print.

Prepare a network node. Connect the Fiery X3e to 
the network. If you use a computer running 
Command WorkStation software, connect it to 
the network.

Configure UNIX, Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 
2003, and IPX (Novell) servers to specify Fiery X3e 
print queues and Fiery X3e users.

No special configuration of AppleShare servers
is required.

On the Fiery X3e Control Panel, configure, at a 
minimum, the Server Setup, Network Setup, and 
Printer Setup. Configure the remaining Setups. 

The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems you can use to print and run 
Fiery software from remote workstations. Find the page with your preferred platform 
and network type, and then look up the setup procedures referenced in the “Key to 
setup” in the upper-left corner of each diagram. 

The diagrams describe devices that use the supported networking protocols. They are 
logical diagrams and are not intended to describe the physical arrangement (topology) 
of devices on the network. A variety of physical arrangements is possible with each 
logical arrangement. For example, twisted pair Ethernet networks commonly use a star 
configuration around a hub, rather than a bus arrangement. The design of physical 
networks is beyond the scope of this manual.

If your network uses more than one protocol or more than one type of workstation, 
combine the setups listed for each component of your system. Multiple protocols 
(shown in the diagrams as parallel lines) can run on the same cable. A solid connection 
from the Fiery X3e with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be 
operational at the same time. 

The protocols used in these diagrams are indicated as follows:

1 Mac OS computer

2 Fiery Setup

Mac OS computers can print directly using the 
AppleTalk protocol.

Fiery utilities can be used with the AppleTalk 
protocol. To use ColorWise Pro Tools, TCP/IP 
is

 

required.
