16	Using the Fiery WebTools

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.

This chapter provides an introduction to the Fiery WebTools, providing a description of the tools and the procedure for accessing them.

Fiery WebTools Overview

Fiery WebTools reside on the DocuColor 2006 and can be accessed from Windows 95/98, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, and Mac OS client workstations with Internet browsers that support the Java language.

The Fiery software has a home page that lets you view server functions and manipulate jobs remotely.

Some of the functions, such as WebSpooler, may require a password if the administrator has set Administrator and Operator password.

The Status, WebLink, and WebDownloader WebTools do not require any special access privileges. As long as the administrator has enabled Web Services in Setup and has provided users with the IP address of the printer, anyone can use these WebTools.
