Using Fiery Link
Fiery Link is designed to provide you with up-to-date status on print
jobs and connected servers. It tracks the status of your print jobs and
alerts you to errors. For example, you can see how many print jobs are
ahead of your job in the queue. Fiery Link also provides information
about paper and dry ink levels. For example, you can ensure that the
sorter output tray is empty before sending a job that will be sorted.
For information on installing and configuring Fiery Link, and on
supported networking protocols, refer to the chapter Installing the Fiery
software for Windows and Macintosh.
The Windows and Mac OS versions of Fiery Link are fundamentally
the same; differences are noted in this section. Where both windows or
dialog boxes are illustrated, the Windows version comes first, followed
by the Mac OS version.
Fiery Link WebTools does not require any special access privileges.
