TO PRINT TO THE FIERY SI: • On a UNIX system running SunOS 4 or other BSD-based variant, use the lpr command to send a job to the Fiery SI. • On a UNIX system running Solaris 2 or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the lp command to send a job to the Fiery SI. • Windows NT users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send print jobs to a Fiery SI from their applications or from a command prompt. Printing from applications uses the Windows NT PostScript driver. This gives Windows NT users a larger selection of print options than printing from the command line.

To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any com-
puter on the network, at the command prompt, type:
ping
<IP address>
Type the Fiery SI IP address assigned in Fiery SI Network Setup.
After the Fiery SI is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave to
the Fiery SI
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as
<IP address> is alive
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP address. To
stop the output, type
Control-C.
You can use the
ping
command at any time.
Printing and managing print jobs
UNIX printing commands and options are detailed in the manual pages for your sys-
tem. Some examples are given in the Fiery SI Color Server
User Guide

On a UNIX system running SunOS 4 or other BSD-based variant, use the lpr command to
send a job to the Fiery SI.
On a UNIX system running Solaris 2 or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the
lp command to send a job to the Fiery SI.
Windows NT users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send print jobs to a Fiery SI
from their applications or from a command prompt.
Printing from applications uses the Windows NT PostScript driver. This gives
Windows NT users a larger selection of print options than printing from the com-
mand line.
