To print from PageMaker on French systems, copy the ﬁle EF3M6E10.PPD from Dossier Système: Extensions: Descriptions d’imprimantes to Dossier Système: Extensions: Fichiers de description.

Editing device settings

To change print defaults in a driver that was downloaded from the Fiery X3e using WINS printing (SMB), the permissions for the Print queue on the Fiery X3e server must be set to Full Control for the user Everyone. Once you are logged in with Administrator privileges, you can allow a user or all users to change print defaults in the driver by enabling Full Control in the Properties/Security/Permission tab.

When you click the help button question mark on the upper right corner of the Windows 95/98 or Windows NT driver, and select any ﬁeld, the help message does not appear.

Renaming the server

If you rename the server, the name must be fewer than or equal to 10 characters.

Fiery Setup

To run Setup from the Control Panel, you must log in with Administrator privileges.

Fiery Server Setup

If a connection to the Fiery X3e fails after changing settings in the General or Printer Setup tab of the Fiery Server Setup dialog box, the WorkGroup name and the Domain name may be the same. To resolve this problem, use different names.

Remote Setup for Bindery and NDS

When conﬁguring Bindery or NDS in Network Setup using WebSetup or Command WorkStation from a client computer, enter a password in order to make changes. For Bindery Setup, log in as Admin, Supervisor, or Guest with the appropriate password. For NDS, select the appropriate login and password.

IPX Auto Frame Type

If you select Yes to enable IPX Auto Frame Type in Setup, the Fiery X3e will bind only to the ﬁrst frame type it ﬁnds, which is typically 802.2. To ensure that all available frame types are bound, select each one individually. After the Fiery reboots upon exiting Setup, print the Conﬁguration page to verify that all selected frame types were successfully bound.

TCP/IP and DHCP servers

In some cases, Mac OS computers may crash when attempting to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server while loading the TCP/IP driver. Check the TCP/IP Control Panel to make sure that you have a valid IP address and that the router and DNS server addresses are valid before running applications such as ColorWise Pro Tools.

If necessary, you can retrieve a backup of the system software using the Restore Backup command. Press the ﬁrst line selection button on the Control Panel during diagnostics to display the Restore Backup menu, and select Restore Backup. Selecting Restore Backup restores the system software to the factory default conﬁguration.
