1-1 ColorPASS on the network

Chapter 1: Connecting to the Network

This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the ColorPASS, and includes diagrams that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation. Check those references to ﬁnd the information you need quickly.

ColorPASS on the network

When the ColorPASS is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the ColorPASS supports the following network protocols:

• AppleTalk

• TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports Windows (SMB) printing. The http protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets.

• IPX/SPX (Novell)

IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.

These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each other) are supported on the Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned. A Token Ring option is also available. This option supports the TCP/IP and IPX/SPX protocols. The ColorPASS is auto-sensing, and can handle all of these connections simultaneously.

When you add the ColorPASS to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

1-2 Connecting to the Network

• Physically connecting the ColorPASS to a functioning network

• Conﬁguring the network server

Stages of installation on the network

Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a successful installation are:

Prepare a network node for the ColorPASS—obtain cable and route it to the location where the ColorPASS will be installed (near the copier) and attach the cable to the network interface of the ColorPASS. See page 2-9 for details.

OTE

If you plan to run the Command WorkStation software, you will need to install

the software and connect the Command WorkStation computer to the network along with the ColorPASS. See

When network servers are required, you need to conﬁgure those servers to provide client access to the ColorPASS as a color PostScript printer. See Chapter 5 for information on conﬁguring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environments.

Getting Started

for details.

• Setting up the ColorPASS

Conﬁgure the ColorPASS for your particular printing and network environment. First read Chapter 2, and then see the following chapters for details.

• Preparing client workstations for printing

Install the ﬁles needed for printing, install additional user software, and connect the client to the ColorPASS over the network. These steps are described in and some information is provided in Chapter 5 of this manual.

• Administering the ColorPASS

Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that arise. See Chapter 6 and the Job Management Guide for details.

Prepare a network node. Connect the ColorPASS to the copier and to the network. If you use a computer running the Command WorkStation software, connect it to the network.

Conﬁgure UNIX, Windows NT 4.0 and IPX (Novell) servers to specify ColorPASS print queues and ColorPASS users.

No special conﬁguration of AppleShare servers is required.

On the ColorPASS Control Panel, conﬁgure at least the Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup. From the Control Panel or the Command WorkStation, conﬁgure the remaining Setups. Calibrate the ColorPASS.

At each workstation that will print to the ColorPASS:

• Install the appropriate printer ﬁles and connect to one or more queues.

• For computers that will use them, install Fiery utilities and an Internet browser.

• Verify the ColorPASS in the list of printers and run a test print.

Quick path to installation

The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems that can be used for printing and running 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” at the top left 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 the 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 ColorPASS with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be operational at the same time.

A Token Ring card is required for connection to a Token Ring network. For more information, see Appendix A, “Token Ring Network Option.”

NOTE: The IPX/SPX and TCP/IP functionality outlined in this section is available on

both Ethernet and Token Ring networks. AppleTalk is supported on Ethernet only. The supported version of Windows 2000 is the Professional version.

Ethernet connection

For connecting to Ethernet, the ColorPASS supports Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling, deﬁned as Category 5 for use with 100BaseT; or as Category 3, Category 4, or Category 5 for use with 10BaseT. The cable uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs into the RJ-45 socket on the ColorPASS.

NOTE: The 100BaseT type supported by the ColorPASS is 100BaseTX, also known as

Fast Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX hub. The term “100BaseT” is used to refer to 100BaseTX.

TO CONNECT TO THE ETHERNET BOARD:

• Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the ColorPASS.

A Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable network cable must be used for 100BaseT.

2-1 Levels of access and control

Chapter 2: Preparing for ColorPASS Setup

To prepare for printing at your site, you need to do some initial ColorPASS conﬁguration, or Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do. Before you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for your site. Administrators and operators must also understand how ColorPASS system software is structured in order to conﬁgure and use the ColorPASS system correctly.

Levels of access and control

When you conﬁgure the ColorPASS during Setup, you (as system administrator) implement a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections, passwords, and access to Fiery WebTools. The level of control you implement can range from strict to moderate to minimal—or none at all.

• Strictest control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment where an administrator or operator controls the job ﬂow and all printing; jobs sent by users are spooled (stored) to the ColorPASS disk until the operator decides it is time to print them. In addition, only the administrator and/or operator have access to job management tools.

NOTE: The term “job management tools” is used in this manual to refer to the

Command WorkStation, Fiery Spooler, and Fiery WebSpooler.

• Least control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local network can control all printing and ColorPASS functions. Although there may be an administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to the system and job management tools.

ColorPASS print connections

The ColorPASS supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct connection. These print connections can be enabled, or “published,” to users on the network when you conﬁgure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and the Direct connection give remote users more direct access to the ColorPASS than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where stricter control is desired.

2-2 Preparing for ColorPASS Setup

In addition, you can enable the Printed queue, which is a storage area for the most recent jobs from the Print queue. The Printed queue makes it convenient to reprint those jobs. In Setup, you enable the Printed queue and specify the maximum number of jobs retained in it (see page 3-8). Reprinting jobs in the Printed queue requires the job management tools.

Hold queue

Jobs sent to the Hold queue are spooled to the ColorPASS hard disk for printing at a later time or for repeated printing. Because the Hold queue is a storage place, jobs sent to it cannot proceed through the printing process without intervention via the job management tools (see the Job Management Guide).

Print queue

This is the standard ColorPASS queue. Jobs sent to the Print queue are processed and printed in the order they are received. Jobs prioritized by an operator from the job management tools and jobs sent via the Direct connection can take priority over jobs sent to the Print queue.

To use the Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools, you must enable either the Hold queue or the Print queue.

Direct connection

The Direct connection transmits jobs directly to the ColorPASS, but only when the ColorPASS is not processing another job. If the ColorPASS is busy, the job remains at the user workstation until the ColorPASS 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 ColorPASS hard disk, and they 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.

You cannot use the Direct connection for lpd printing over TCP/IP.

NOTE: To download fonts to the ColorPASS, you must publish the Direct connection.

2-3 Levels of access and control

Passwords

You can implement password requirements as a means of controlling access to ColorPASS functions. The ColorPASS allows for the following passwords to be set in Setup:

• Administrator—from the Control Panel or the Command WorkStation

• Operator—from the Command WorkStation

NOTE: By default, no passwords are set on the ColorPASS. If you do not speciﬁcally

set passwords, all users will have administrator privileges, which include access to important functions such as Setup (including setting passwords), and job control. It is strongly recommended that you set at least an Administrator password to protect the ColorPASS from random or accidental changes to Setup.

Administrator privileges

Administrator control, which confers control of Setup, is the highest level of control, since the person who has access to Setup can control the printing and job management environment. Administrator privileges include publishing print connections, setting passwords, deleting fonts, clearing the ColorPASS of all job data, performing calibration, and setting the WebLink destination.

When performing a function from the ColorPASS Control Panel that prompts you for the Administrator password, you must enter it promptly. Otherwise, the ColorPASS Control Panel returns to Idle, and you must start over again.

Operator privileges

Operator control includes control of print jobs from the job management tools, including the ability to override job settings.

Guest privileges (no password)

No password is needed for a user to log in as a Guest from the job management tools. A Guest can view the status of active jobs but cannot make changes to jobs or to the ColorPASS state.

2-4 Preparing for ColorPASS Setup

Fiery WebTools

The ColorPASS can support Internet or intranet access with Fiery WebTools from Windows computers. To enable use of Fiery WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:

• Enable TCP/IP.

• Set an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the ColorPASS.

• Enable Web Services.

Instead of manually assigning the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address, you can use DHCP, RARP, or BOOTP protocols to assign some or all of these addresses (see page 3-15).

Passwords can be set to control access to Fiery WebTools features. If you do not speciﬁcally set these passwords, all users have access to all Fiery WebTools functions (see page 2-3).

Fiery WebTools include Status, WebSpooler, WebLink, and Installer.

Status

The Status WebTool provides you with current information on the jobs processing and printing on the ColorPASS. It is not affected by any password setting. For more information, see the Printing Guide.

WebSpooler

The WebSpooler interface is very similar to that of the Command WorkStation. It allows remote users to preview, manipulate, reorder, reprint, and delete jobs currently spooling, processing, or printing on the ColorPASS. It also allows the administrator to use the DocBuilder tool (Thumbnails A and B) and to view, print, or delete the Job Log.

Fiery WebSpooler access can be controlled by setting an Operator password in Setup. If you set a password, only users with that password can manipulate jobs from Fiery WebSpooler. A user who does not have the password can still log in to Fiery WebSpooler as a Guest with view-only access (see page 2-3). For more information, see the Job Management Guide.
