1-1 Setting up PostScript or PCL printing with Windows 98/Me

apter 1: Installing User Software on a Windows Computer

This chapter describes the procedures for installing the EX2101 software and setting up printing from a computer using a supported version of Windows. For Windows versions supported, see the

The general steps for installing the software are as follows:

•Install the PostScript printer driver or PCL printer driver and corresponding printer driver ﬁles, and set up the printer driver to communicate with the Fiery EX2101.

•Install Fiery utilities and user software—Fiery Downloader, Fiery VDP Resource Manager, Fiery Spooler, EFI Job Monitor, Fiery Printer Delete Utility, Hot Folders, and Command WorkStation.

• Conﬁgure the connection for Fiery utilities and user software.

• Copy additional ﬁles from the User Software CD as required.

Quick Start Guide

Setting up PostScript or PCL printing with Windows 98/Me

To set up the Fiery EX2101 as a PostScript or PCL printer, you must install the PostScript or PCL printer driver for Windows 98/Me and the corresponding printer description ﬁles. You must also conﬁgure either a local connection for printing directly or a network connection for printing over the network.

OTE

Using the PostScript driver requires either the hard disk option or the PostScript

option installed on the copier.

If you are printing using SMB (Server Message Block), you can connect to the Fiery EX2101 and install the printer drivers in a single procedure. For more information, see “Setting up SMB printing with Windows 98/Me” on page 1-9.
