INSTALLING PRINTER DRIVERS

This chapter describes the procedures for installing printer drivers on a computer using a supported version of Windows. For the Windows versions supported, see “Terminology and
conventions” on page 5. Installing printer drivers and printer description files is the first step
in setting up the Fiery EX4112/4127 as a PostScript or PCL printer.
Install printer drivers as follows:
• From the Fiery EX4112/4127 through Point and Print using SMB printing.
• From WebTools, using the Downloads tab to download the printer driver files before installing the printer driver. For instructions, see “Downloading printer drivers
using WebTools” on page 11.
• From the Fiery EX4112/4127 by downloading the printer driver files over the network before installing the printer driver. For instructions, see “Downloading printer drivers
from the Fiery EX4112/4127” on page 13.
• From the User Software DVD.
NOTE: WebTools is available if the administrator has enabled Internet access to the
Fiery EX4112/4127.
If the Fiery EX4112/4127 printer driver is already installed, you must uninstall it before you install a new one (see “Uninstalling printer drivers” on page 18).

Installing printer drivers by Point and Print

SMB printing (also known as Windows or WINS printing) allows you to install PostScript or PCL printer drivers on your computer from the Fiery EX4112/4127 using Point and Print, and print to a particular connection (Print queue, Hold queue, Direct connection, or virtual printer).
Each connection (Print queue, Hold queue, Direct connection, or virtual printer) requires a separate installation. Repeat the procedure for each connection.
When you install the printer driver using Point and Print, you cannot configure installable options manually. The installed options are displayed in the printer driver when you enable Two-Way Communication. For more information, see Configuring Installable Options.
NOTE: The procedures for setting up printing with the PostScript and PCL printer drivers are
similar. The following illustrations show the PostScript drivers. Any differences are noted.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ask your Fiery EX4112/4127 administrator to do the following in Setup on the Fiery EX4112/4127:
• Assign the Fiery EX4112/4127 a valid IP address.
Ask the administrator for the IP address or DNS name because you need it in the following procedure.
• Configure the Fiery EX4112/4127 for SMB printing.
NOTE: SMB printing is referred to as Windows Printing in Setup and on the
Configuration page.
• Specify the printer driver type, PS or PCL.
For more information, see Configuration and Setup or WebTools Configure Help.

SETTING UP PRINTING CONNECTIONS 20

SETTING UP PRINTING CONNECTIONS

To print from Windows computers, you or the administrator must perform the following tasks if you want to set up a connection other than port 9100:
• Set up network servers, if any.
• Set up the Fiery EX4112/4127 to accept print jobs from your computer.
• Configure a port on each Windows computer for the network type.

Printing connections

The Fiery EX4112/4127 supports the following printing connections:
•SMB
• Standard TCP/IP (RAW or LPR)
• IPP or IPP over SSL

Completing the SMB printing connection

If your network does not have a Windows server, Windows computers can still print to the Fiery EX4112/4127. This method of printing is SMB printing (also known as Windows or WINS printing). When users send print jobs, computers running Windows operate in a peer-to-peer environment and communicate directly with the Fiery EX4112/4127.
Enabling SMB printing allows the Fiery EX4112/4127 to be listed on the network, so that Windows clients can print to a particular print connection (Print queue, Hold queue, or Direct connection) on the Fiery EX4112/4127 without using other networking software. Windows printing runs via TCP/IP. You must configure TCP/IP on the Fiery EX4112/4127 and on all computers that use SMB printing.
After you enable SMB printing on the Fiery EX4112/4127, you can set up the Windows or SMB connection and install the printer driver in one procedure. For more information, see
“Installing printer drivers by Point and Print” on page 9.
SETTING UP PRINTING CONNECTIONS 21

Completing Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or LPR) printing connections

After you install the PostScript and printer driver files, you can add or configure the setup for the Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or LPR) connection as follows:
• Prepare the Fiery EX4112/4127 to accept print jobs using Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or LPR) protocols. For details, see Configuration and Setup.
• Enable LPD or Port 9100 on the Fiery EX4112/4127. For details, see Configuration and
Setup.
• Configure the computer for the TCP/IP connection.
Before you complete the following procedure, contact your system administrator for the IP address assigned to the Fiery EX4112/4127.
The TCP/IP protocol should be installed on the Windows computer. For Port 9100, you can set up the connection and install the printer driver in one procedure.
NOTE: You can also set up the LPR Port connection by installing Print Services for UNIX,
which is supplied as an add-on Windows component with Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/ Vista/Server 2008. For more information, see the documentation that accompanies Windows.

E-mail Service

E-mail Service allows you to control the Fiery EX4112/4127 using your current e-mail infrastructure, print to remote locations, and bypass firewalls. E-mail Service is not application-specific. You can use any e-mail infrastructure.
The Fiery EX4112/4127 supports internal address books. Administrators can retrieve, add, delete, and clear addresses from the address books by sending requests through e-mail. For more information about address books, see Configuration and Setup.
To set up E-mail Service, see WebTools Configure Help.
Use E-mail Service in the following ways:
• Print a job from an e-mail application.
To print with an e-mail client, you send a file as an e-mail attachment. E-mail Service extracts the file and sends it to the Fiery EX4112/4127. The attachment can be in any format the Fiery EX4112/4127 recognizes (PostScript, PDF, or TIFF).
NOTE: E-mail Service does not process files with .vbs, .exe, or .bat extensions.
• Manage jobs using an e-mail application.
You can manage your print jobs by submitting e-mail commands to the Fiery EX4112/ 4127 using e-mail.

Printing using an e-mail client

You can submit print jobs to the Fiery EX4112/4127 in the form of an e-mail attachment using your e-mail application. When you send an e-mail with an attachment, E-mail Service extracts the file and sends it to the Fiery EX4112/4127 Print queue. The file format must be one supported by the Fiery EX4112/4127.
By default, anyone can print with an e-mail client, unless the Print address book has been set up by the administrator. If the Print address book has been set up and your e-mail address is not in it, you cannot send files to the Fiery EX4112/4127 via e-mail. For more information about address books, see Configuration and Setup.
When User Authentication is enabled on the Fiery EX4112/4127, the e-mail attachment must have the appropriate user name and password when it is printed through e-mail printing. As part of creating the e-mail attachment with the Fiery EX4112/4127 printer driver, type the appropriate user name and password in the Job Info tab of the printer driver. The user name and password must match those defined by the administrator in the Users and Groups section of Configure. For information about Users and Groups, see WebTools Configure Help.
NOTE: The Direct connection is not supported by the e-mail client feature.
NOTE: The following illustrations depict the Microsoft Outlook e-mail application.

Defining and printing custom page sizes

With custom page sizes, you define the dimensions of a printed page. After you define a custom page size, you can use it from within an application without redefining it each time you print. When you create custom page sizes, specify Width dimensions to correspond with the shorter side of your job and specify Height dimensions to correspond with the longer side of your job. Set custom page sizes in this way, regardless of the orientation settings in the application.

setting options and printing. The following procedures use Windows XP illustrations with Windows 200/Server 2003/Vista/Server 2008 differences noted.
