1 Setting up PostScript printing with Windows 95/98

Installing User Software on a Windows Computer

This chapter describes installing software and setting up printing from a Windows-based computer running Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000.
The general steps for installing the software are:
• Install the PostScript printer driver (Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000) and corresponding printer description files.
• Set up the printer driver to communicate with the Fiery X3e.
• Install the Fiery utilities and the Command WorkStation software.
• Install Fiery Scan plug-in.
• Configure the connection for Fiery Link, Fiery Downloader, ColorWise Pro Tools, and the Command WorkStation.
• Setup IPP printing for Windows 98 and Windows 2000.
• Copy additional files from the User Software CD as needed.
In addition to using the User Software CD, you can download printer drivers and printer files from the Fiery X3e with the Installer WebTool (if the site administrator has enabled Internet access to the Fiery X3e). For instructions, see “Using the Installer WebTool” on page 112. Once you download the printer files, the installation process is identical to installing from the User Software CD.
Setting up PostScript printing with Windows 95/98
To set up the Fiery X3e as a PostScript printer you must install the PostScript printer driver for Windows 95/98 and its corresponding printer description files. You must also configure a particular type of print connection between the workstation and the Fiery X3e.
The procedure below describes installing the printer drivers from the User Software CD or from the Installer WebTool. The procedures after that describe setting up the print connection.
