Windows PostScript printer driver (Windows NT 4.0) and PostScript Printer

Description ﬁles (PPDs) (for all Windows systems).

• Set up the printer driver to communicate with the Fiery X2.

• Install the Fiery utilities (Fiery Downloader, Fiery Print Calibrator, and

Fiery Spooler) and Fiery Scan plug-in (Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 only).

• Conﬁgure the connection for Fiery Downloader, Fiery Print Calibrator, and Fiery

Scan.

• Conﬁgure the connection for Fiery Spooler.

• Copy additional color reference and application ﬁles from the User Software CD as

needed.

Installing Windows software

The Instalrs folder on the User Software CD contains the following installer folders:

• Calib—Fiery Print Calibrator installer

• Download—Fiery Downloader installer

• PS_drvr—Adobe PostScript printer driver installers for Windows 95 and

User Software

on a Windows

Computer

2 Installing User Software on a Windows Computer

In addition, the User Software CD includes various color ﬁles. These ﬁles must be

copied or installed from the CD and placed in the appropriate locations on your hard

disk (see “Copying color ﬁles from the User Software CD” on page 42):

• ICM printer proﬁle

• Separation Tables and a monitor settings ﬁle for use with Adobe Photoshop

• PostScript CMYK reference ﬁle

• PostScript PANTONE Coated Color Reference ﬁle

• RGB color reference ﬁles for specifying colors from Microsoft Word and PowerPoint

Downloading printer ﬁles with the Installer WebTool

Installers for the Fiery X2 printer ﬁles can be downloaded from the Fiery X2 with the

Installer WebTool (if the site administrator has enabled Internet access to the

Fiery X2). For instructions, see “Using the Installer WebTool” on page 64.

Once you download the installers, the installation process is identical to installing from

the User Software CD.

Setting up the Fiery X2 as a PostScript printer

To set up the Fiery X2 as a PostScript printer, you need a PostScript printer driver and

the appropriate Fiery X2 PPD ﬁle.

• For Windows 95 or Windows 3.1x, install the appropriate Adobe PostScript printer

driver, included with the Fiery X2 user software. Both drivers are capable of

providing access to all Fiery X2 features; in addition, the Adobe PostScript printer

driver for Windows 95 supports PostScript 3.

• For Windows NT 4.0 systems, install the printer driver that came with your

Windows system software. This driver may not support all Fiery X2 features.

The following procedures are speciﬁc to each version of Windows.
