Network Setup options Network Setup configures the Fiery SI to receive print jobs over the networks that will be used. In the Setup menu, you choose Network Setup. The Network Setup menu lets you choose the communication types: Ethernet, Token Ring, and Parallel Port. Each type has its own setup, and in the case of Ethernet, its own menu with three protocols that can be used with Ethernet cabling. For each enabled protocol, you are prompted to enter settings pertaining to that protocol. This is the place to specify network addresses and names to be used by workstations, servers, and the Fiery SI when they communicate with each other. You need display and select options only for the network systems that are currently used at your site. If your network requirements change, you can change the Network Setup at any time. Parallel port setup is included under Network Setup. If you plan to print to the Fiery SI parallel port, you must first enable Parallel Port in Server Setup. If the Fiery SI is configured to enable more than one protocol, it automatically switches to the correct protocol when it receives a print job. When the parallel port and one or two network ports are enabled, print jobs can be received over all of those ports at the same time. TO ACCESS NETWORK SETUP OPTIONS: 1. Confirm that the network cable is connected to the Fiery SI. During Network Setup, the Fiery SI queries the network for zones, servers, and serverbased queues. If you perform Network Setup without a connected and functioning network, default settings are used that may not fulfill your needs. 2. Choose Network Setup from the main Setup menu.

Network Setup options
Network Setup configures the Fiery SI to receive print jobs over the networks that will
be used.
Parallel port setup is included under Network Setup. If you plan to print to the
Fiery SI parallel port, you must first enable Parallel Port in Server Setup.
If the Fiery SI is configured to enable more than one protocol, it automatically
switches to the correct protocol when it receives a print job. When the parallel port and
one or two network ports are enabled, print jobs can be received over all of those ports

OPTIONS
:
1.
Confirm that the network cable is connected to the Fiery SI.
During Network Setup, the Fiery SI queries the network for zones, servers, and server-
based queues. If you perform Network Setup without a connected and functioning
network, default settings are used that may not fulfill your needs.
2.
Choose Network Setup from the main Setup menu.
In the Setup menu, you choose Network Setup.
The Network Setup menu lets you choose the communication types: Ethernet, Token
Ring, and Parallel Port. Each type has its own setup, and in the case of Ethernet, its

For each enabled protocol, you are prompted to enter settings pertaining to that
protocol. This is the place to specify network addresses and names to be used by
workstations, servers, and the Fiery SI when they communicate with each other.
You need display and select options only for the network systems that are currently
used at your site. If your network requirements change, you can change the Network
Setup at any time.
