22-19 Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a workstation and the Fiery X3e. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area. TO SET UP FIERY X3E PRINTING ON UNIX SYSTEMS 1. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery X3e Network Setup. Enter a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the Fiery X3e. 2. Specify the appropriate settings in Fiery X3e Printer Setup. Publish the Print queue, Hold queue, and/or Direct queue. TO SET UP TCP/IP FOR COMMUNICATION WITH THE FIERY X3E 1. A superuser (with root login) must add the Fiery X3e to the network's IP host table or other system database of network printers. 2. In the file or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print server protocol, the queue, and the spool file for the Fiery X3e name you assigned. 3. Make the Fiery X3e available as a printer to other network users. 4. To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any Windows computer on the network, at the MS-DOS command prompt, type: ping Type the Fiery X3e IP address assigned in Fiery X3e Network Setup.

Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations
Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have
a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator
to obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can
print directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print
server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage
in placing another print server between a workstation and the Fiery X3e. If you choose
to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not
have its own spooling area.

2.
In the file or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print
server protocol, the queue, and the spool file for the Fiery X3e name you assigned.
3.
Make the Fiery X3e available as a printer to other network users.
4.
To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any
Windows computer on the network, at the MS-DOS command prompt, type:
ping
