INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
This document describes how to set up network servers and user computers to use the
Fiery X3eTY 50_45C-KM Color Server so that users can print to it as a high-performance
networked printer. For general information about using the copier/printer, your computer,
your software, or your network, see the documentation that accompanies those products.
Setting up the network environment correctly requires the presence and active cooperation of
the network administrator. Detailed instructions for configuring networks is beyond the
scope of this document. For information, see your network documentation.
For information about supported operating systems and system requirements, see Welcome.

Configure network servers to provide users with access to the Fiery X3eTY as a networked
printer. For information about configuring network servers in Windows and UNIX network
environments as they relate specifically to the Fiery X3eTY, see page 12. For information
about using your network, see your network documentation.
2 Physically connecting the Fiery X3eTY to a functioning network
Prepare a network node for the Fiery X3eTY. Obtain cable, route it to the location where the
Fiery X3eTY is to be installed, and attach the cable to the network connector of the
Fiery X3eTY. For details, see page 20.
3 Setting up the Fiery X3eTY
Configure the Fiery X3eTY for your printing and network environment (see page 23 and
page 61).
4 Preparing user computers for printing
Install the files needed for printing, install user software, and connect the user computers to
the network. The software installation is described in Printing from Windows and Printing
from Mac OS.
5 Administering the Fiery X3eTY
Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that may arise
(see page 70).

Network server
Connection
Prepare a network node. Connect the Fiery X3eTY to the
network.
Fiery X3eTY
CONNECTING TO
THE
NETWORK
12
Windows networks
The Fiery X3eTY requires a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.
Enter these addresses manually or use DHCP or BOOTP protocols to assign them
dynamically. Make sure the Fiery X3eTY name and address are listed in a domain name server
(DNS) or hosts name database used by your system.
If more than one Fiery X3eTY print connection is published (for example, if both the Print
queue and the Hold queue are published), consider creating a printer for each print
connection, so that users can print to each connection directly.
Configure the Fiery X3eTY with the correct Windows domain name.
This is especially important for Windows printing, also known as SMB printing.
To use Microsoft Active Directory, you must assign the Fiery X3eTY to a domain. If you
assign the Fiery X3eTY to a workgroup, you cannot use Active Directory.
NetWare networks
You must have administrator privileges on the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage areas for print
jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the job is directed to a Print
queue on the NetWare file server and spooled to the NetWare server disk, freeing up the
client computer.
CONNECTING TO
THE
NETWORK
13
To the end of the NetWare queue names, append one of the following suffixes that
corresponds to the Fiery X3eTY print connection, as follows:
_print
_hold
_direct
N OTE : These suffixes must be in English and in all lowercase letters.
You do not need to perform Setup when you add or remove a NetWare queue. However,
always restart the Fiery X3eTY after you create or remove a queue that will be connected to
the print server used by the Fiery X3eTY.
When the Fiery X3eTY is configured to connect to a NetWare server, it polls the NetWare
server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found, they are automatically transferred over
the network to the matching connection on the Fiery X3eTY. For example, jobs from the
NetWare queue with the _print suffix are sent to the Fiery X3eTY Print queue.
You can connect up to eight bindery servers to the Fiery X3eTY.
N OTE : The NetWare bindery server you select must not be in the same tree as the one you
selected in NDS Setup, if both NDS and bindery are used by the Fiery X3eTY.
AppleTalk networks
AppleShare servers require no special configuration.
To allow Mac OS X v10.4.x computers to access Bonjour printers, you must enable Bonjour
on the Fiery X3eTY.
UNIX networks
When you configure a UNIX workstation with the lpr protocol and connect to the Fiery X3eTY
over a TCP/IP network, you can print directly to the Fiery X3eTY.
Setting up UNIX workstations requires an administrator with root privileges. After the initial
configuration, UNIX users submit print jobs to a named printer.
The Fiery X3eTY is a printer controller that understands lpr protocols.
The Fiery X3eTY has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with it
successfully.
Regardless of the UNIX system you use, the name you use for the remote printer (or rp in the
/etc/printcap file) in configuring the network for the Fiery X3eTY must be one of the
following:
print
hold
direct
CONNECTING TO
THE
NETWORK
14
Computers on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the Fiery X3eTY as a remote printer,
or can print to a Windows 2000/Server 2003 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print
server.

N OTE : You cannot enable Fiery X3eTY authentication and copier/printer authentication at
the same time.
If you require users to specify their user name and password (that is, you have cleared the
Allow users to print without authentication checkbox), users must type this information in
the printer driver when they print. Also, users must specify their user name and password if
they create files from the printer driver for printing later (such as an e-mail attachment that
will be sent to the Fiery X3eTY).
Because jobs that are sent through FTP do not require a printer driver, you can specify that
FTP jobs are authenticated (see Require Password for Printing on page 53).
Passwords
When you create a new user in WebTools Configure > Users and Groups, you assign a
password to the user. In addition, you can also set passwords for these areas:
Default admin user in Administrators group
Default operator user in Operators group
By default, the Administrator password is set on the Fiery X3eTY. Change the Administrator
password periodically to protect the Fiery X3eTY from accidental or malicious changes to
Setup. For more information, see Setting passwords on page 71.
Users in the Administrators and Operators groups have privileges in addition to the explicit
ones that you set when you create groups. Examples of these privileges are provided in the
following sections.
Administrator privileges
Users in the Administrators group have the highest level of control. Administrator privileges
include:
Configuring the Fiery X3eTY from the Configure application or from the copier touch
panel
Adding and deleting groups
Adding and deleting users
Setting and changing passwords for users
Deleting, printing, exporting, and viewing the Job Log
Deleting, viewing, and modifying users print jobs
Clearing the Fiery X3eTY of all job data
Printing in black-and-white or color
Publishing print connections
Deleting fonts

Hold queue
Jobs sent to the Hold queue are spooled to the Fiery X3eTY hard disk for printing at a later
time, or for reprinting. Because the Hold queue is a storage area, jobs sent to it cannot
proceed through the printing process until the operator intervenes using the job management
tools.
PREPARING
FOR FIERY
X3ETY SETUP
18
Print queue
The Print queue is the standard Fiery X3eTY queue. Jobs sent to the Print queue are
processed and printed in the order in which they are received. Jobs prioritized by an operator
with the job management tools and jobs sent via the Direct connection take priority over jobs
sent to the Print queue.
Direct connection
The Direct connection transmits jobs directly to the Fiery X3eTY, but only when the
Fiery X3eTY is Idle. If the Fiery X3eTY is busy, the job remains at the users computer until
the Fiery X3eTY is ready. The job is then processed as soon as the previous job is finished and
before the next queued job is processed.
Jobs sent to the Direct connection are not stored on the Fiery X3eTY hard disk, and cannot
be selected for reprinting, moving, or deletion. Therefore, the Direct connection provides a
measure of security for sensitive files. Jobs sent to the Direct connection do appear in the Job
Log, for accounting purposes.
N OTE : To download fonts to the Fiery X3eTY, you must publish the Direct connection.
WebTools
The Fiery X3eTY supports Internet or intranet access with WebTools from Windows and
Mac OS computers. To enable use of WebTools, see Configuring WebTools on page 68.
Home
Home provides you with current information about the jobs processing and printing on the
Fiery X3eTY. To use this WebTool, you do not need a password. For more information, see
Utilities.
Downloads
Downloads allows users to download installers for printer drivers and other software directly
from the Fiery X3eTY. To use this WebTool, you do not need a password. For more
information, see Printing from Windows, Printing from Mac OS, and Utilities.
Docs
Docs allows users to access, manage, and modify jobs in their mailboxes on the Fiery X3eTY,
and submit jobs to the Fiery X3eTY. For more information, see WebTools Docs Help.
Utilities. For information about Scan Settings, see WebTools Scan Settings Help.
Configure
Configure allows you to view and modify Fiery X3eTY options from a network computer.
This function requires an Administrator password. For more information, see page 61.

Secure Printing
This option allows the printing of highly sensitive or confidential files. A user printing a file
with the printer driver assigns a password to the job. The user must then enter the password at
the copier/printer to print the job. For more information, see Print Options and Printing from
Windows.
LDAP authentication
When you enable LDAP communication to retrieve names and other information for people
at your organization, you can specify the type of authentication. For more information, see

CONFIGURING WEBTOOLS
WebTools allow you to manage your Fiery X3eTY remotely from the Internet or from your
companys intranet. The Fiery X3eTY has its own home page, from which you can select the
WebTool that you want to use.
For information about using WebTools, see Utilities. Also, for many of the WebTools, you
can consult the Help.
Make sure Java is enabled. For more information about supported browsers and WebTools
requirements, see Welcome.

Setting passwords
You can set or change the passwords for users of the Fiery X3eTY. Anyone who is a member
of the Administrators group can modify the Setup options and control the flow and order of
print jobs with the job management tools.
To create users, assign passwords, and add users to groups, use Configure. For more
information, see WebTools Configure Help.
To set the password for the user named admin in the Administrators group, you can use
either the Configure WebTool or the copier touch panel.
Keep track of the passwords that you set.
Enter Password
Use the copier touch panel window to enter information (see Types of Setup screens on
page 27). The password can be any combination of letters and numbers up to 19 characters.
Verify New Password
Retype the new password, exactly as you typed it initially. The new password is in effect after
you save changes and restart the Fiery X3eTY.
72
Yes, No
Use this option to specify whether the Fiery X3eTY prints the Job Log after every 55 jobs.
Setting the Job Log for automatic printing is useful if accounting for each printed page is
important at your site.
Clear Job Log Every 55 Jobs
Yes, No
Use this option to specify whether to clear the Job Log after every 55 jobs. If you do not
enable this option, and do not clear the Job Log from the Fiery X3eTY or from a remote
workstation, the Fiery X3eTY saves a record of all jobs.
N OTE : If Print Job Log is set to No, setting this option to Yes has no effect.
73
Tabloid/A3, Letter/A4
Select the paper size for printing the Job Log. Regardless of page size, 55 jobs are listed on
a page. The paper size used depends on the Default Paper Sizes setting in PS Setup. If the
Default Paper Sizes setting is US, the Job Log is printed on 11x17 or Letter size paper.
Secure Job Log
Yes, No
Select Yes to print or delete the Job Log with the Administrator password.
Enable Mixed Media Reporting in Job Log
Yes, No
Select Yes to print the Job Log for Mixed Media jobs.
Save Changes
Yes, No
Select Yes to activate any changes made in Job Log Setup. Select No to return to the main
Setup menu without making any changes.
74
If the system has just finished processing, wait at least five seconds after the system reaches
Idle before beginning the shutdown procedure.
2 Press the Utility/Counter button on the Control Panel.
3 In the Touch Panel, press the Controller Details button.
4 Press the Menu button.
5 Press the down arrow to scroll, and select Run Setup.
6 Scroll down through the Setup screen, and select Factory Defaults.
75
USB printing
Users can save PS, EPS, PCL, TIFF, and PDF files to a USB device and print those files on
the Fiery X3eTY. To print files automatically when you connect the USB drive to the
Fiery X3eTY, save the files to specific folders or to the root level on the USB drive.
Users can also print from the copier touch panel. For more information about printing, see
Printing from Windows and Printing from Mac OS.
TO SET UP THE USB DRIVE FOR AUTOMATIC PRINTING
1 Configure the USB printing options in Setup (see page 31).
2 Create folders at the top level (root level) of the USB device named Print, Hold, and Direct.
3 Save the files from the users computer to the USB drive.
Files copied to the Print, Hold, and Direct folders are downloaded to the corresponding print
connection on the Fiery X3eTY automatically when you connect the USB drive to the
Fiery X3eTY.
Files copied to the root level of the drive are downloaded to the queue configured for USB
printing (page 59). For information about enabling print connections, see page 59.
4 Remove the USB device from the users computer and connect it to the USB port on the
Fiery X3eTY.
76
Fiery X3eTY, cancel a job, or receive the status of a job. However, membership in this address
book does not provide the same privileges as the Administrator password (page 71) does.
Print includes users who have print access. Only users whose e-mail addresses are in the Print
address book are authorized to submit jobs via e-mail to the Fiery X3eTY. Unauthorized users
receive an e-mail reply that their job was not accepted by the Fiery X3eTY for printing.
User includes users who have scanning access.
Fax is used for Scan to Internet FAX. This address book is used for sending scan files via
Internet FAX to the Fiery X3eTY. You cannot use addresses in the address book to send an
e-mail to the Fiery X3eTY.
Corporate is an LDAP address book used for Scan to E-mail. It allows users to send files with
page 55.
When a print job is submitted via e-mail, the Fiery X3eTY first checks the Print address book.
If the users e-mail address does not match any entry in the Print address book, the job does
not print. Instead, the user receives an e-mail stating that the print job was not accepted.
The default wildcard character @ is stored in the Print address book. This allows any user to
print to the Fiery X3eTY until the administrator adds the first entry in the Print address
book.
To manage address books, send an e-mail to the Fiery X3eTY with commands in the Subject
and Message fields. The Fiery X3eTY responds by e-mail with information about each
request, as described in the following table.
To add or remove more than one address at a time, list the addresses on separate lines in the
message field of the e-mail.

e-mail syntax
78
For example, to retrieve the User address book, type #GetAddressBook User.
5 Send the message.
The return message includes the addresses of the specified address book.
6 Copy the addresses to a text file or save the message for your records.
For example, to restore the User address book, type #GetAddressTo User.
5 Copy the addresses to the body of the e-mail with each address on a separate line.
You can include nicknames. However, when a nickname or address is longer than one line,
edit it to fit on one line.
6 Send the message.
7 In the return e-mail message, confirm that the addresses were restored correctly.
79
Publish only connections that will be used. The Fiery X3eTY constantly checks all published
connections, even if they are inactive. Match the NetWare polling interval and the number of
queues or connections to the demand for printing.
Review the published connections by printing a Configuration page. Eliminate the
connections that are not being used. It is easy to re-establish them when needed.
Leave less urgent jobs to times when there is less network traffic or printing.
You can print recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent to the Hold queue.
At low-traffic times, the administrator or a user of the job management tools with Operator
privileges can move (or copy) all the Hold queue jobs to the Print queue for printing.
Reduce unnecessary network communication.
Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may have a
significant effect on Fiery X3eTY performance.
Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Fiery X3eTY.
Periodically review the list of jobs in the Hold queue, and the number of jobs being retained
in the Printed queue.
An administrator can print or delete jobs that are in the Printed queue and Hold queue.
Consider printing or offloading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Fiery X3eTY is frequently
low, you can disable the Printed queue and choose not to publish the Hold queue (in Printer
Setup).
To move or remove queued jobs, use the job management tools. When you free up disk space
by removing inactive jobs, new jobs are spooled and printed more quickly.
80
In these cases, users can continue to connect to the Fiery X3eTY and print jobs, and you will
not be able to benefit from the power save mode.
If the Fiery X3eTY is already in power save mode, certain Fiery X3eTY utilities and jobs
printed from certain types of network connections may prevent the Fiery X3eTY from
immediately exiting power save mode, and causing a short delay in connecting to the
Fiery X3eTY. Connections will be made on subsequent retries.
If your network uses a DHCP server, renewing leases for the IP address of the Fiery X3eTY
while it is in power save mode is not guaranteed. If the lease for an IP address expires while
the Fiery X3eTY is in power save mode, the Fiery X3eTY may not have the proper address,
resulting in jobs that may not successfully reach the Fiery X3eTY.
If the system has just finished processing, wait at least five seconds after the system reaches
Idle before beginning the shutdown procedure.
2 At the copier touch panel, press the Utility/Counter button.
3 Press the Controller Details button.
4 Press the Menu button to display the Functions menu.
5 Press the down arrow to scroll to Shut Down.
6 From the Shut Down screen, choose Shut Down System.
