System Administrator tips

The DocuColor 2006 does not require extensive maintenance. Beyond the

obvious requirements of servicing and maintaining the printer and

replenishing consumables, there are a few things the System Administrator

can do to improve the overall performance of your system:

●

Make the best use of network connections

.

Publish only the connections that will be used. The DocuColor 2006

constantly checks all published connections, even if they are inactive.

Match the NetWare polling interval and the number of queues or

connections to the demand for printing.

Review the published connections by printing a Configuration Page.

Eliminate the connections that are not being used and re-establish them

only when needed. In general, network connections provide superior

throughput than a parallel port connection.

●

Reduce unnecessary two-way communication

.

If users notice that the server is frequently too busy to receive jobs, it

may be because several users are running utilities that are updated

often. Large numbers of remote users running the Fiery WebTools may

have a significant effect on printer performance. Remember, there is a

maximum number of eight simultaneous connections to the printer.
