INSTALLING USER SOFTWARE
This chapter describes installation of EX Print Server user software on both Windows and
Mac OS computers.
You can install EX Print Server user software in the following ways:
•From the User Software DVD
•From the EX Print Server, using the Internet or intranet
•From the EX Print Server directly, over the network
If you have previously installed any EX Print Server user software on your computer, the installer allows you to uninstall those applications during the process.
Preparing for installation on Windows computers
Before installing EX Print Server software on a Windows computer, be sure to complete the following:
•To use EX Print Server user software on a Windows computer, the Sun Java file, Java Runtime Environment (JRE), provided in the Common Utilities folder on the User Software DVD, must be installed on your computer. If the correct Sun Java file is not installed, the Fiery User Software Installer installs it automatically before installing the EX Print Server software.
NOTE: The recommended version of Sun Java JRE is provided on the User Software DVD.
•To install the EX Print Server software, you must have Service Pack 2, or Service Pack 3, installed on a Windows XP computer. If not, a warning message alerts you to install the Service Pack.
After installation of Sun Java JRE, a Java Web Start shortcut is created on your computer desktop. The shortcut is not intended for use with EX Print Server software and can be deleted.
Different versions of Sun Java JRE can be installed on your computer. The EX Print Server software automatically finds the correct version, so you do not need to uninstall other versions of Sun Java JRE required for third-party applications.
