System Administrator functions
This chapter provides an introduction to system administrator functions
as well as a guide to the documentation. It includes the following:
• A flowchart that lists system administration functions in the order
they are generally performed. It also provides a map to the
networking chapters.
• A table that lists common system administrator functions and
provides references to the appropriate chapters
The Fiery utilities enable remote users to view server functions. Users
may also have the ability to manage jobs remotely if the system
administrator has assigned them such privileges. For a more detailed
introduction, refer to the chapter Using the Fiery WebTools.
You should also refer to the table of contents and index for assistance
in locating information.
The DocuColor 2006 is referred to as a printer in chapters that refer primarily
to its printing capabilities.
