Media is not mapped automatically. The Fiery Print
Server only contains media of type "Insert"
Problem
You have to enable the JDF print path on the Fiery Print Server and configure its paper catalog as
JDF based. See Enable the JDF print path on the Fiery Print Server on page 180.
However, when you enable the JDF print path and set the paper catalog to "JDF based", a
problem occurs with existing media. All existing media on the print server receive value "Off" for
media attribute "Imageable sides". The Fiery Print Server does not handle these media as inserts.
However, PRISMAprepare receives this media as media of type "Insert".
• All media, which was created on the Fiery Print Server before JDF is enabled, is sent to
PRISMAprepare as media of type "Insert". You have to update all existing media on the Fiery
Print Server. See step 2.
• All media, which is created on the Fiery Print Server after JDF is enabled, is sent to
PRISMAprepare correctly.
You have to manually fix the media on the Fiery Print Server.
Fix the existing media on the Fiery Print Server
1. Connect to the Fiery Print Server and log in as administrator.
2. Click tab "Job Center", then click "Paper Catalog".
3. For each media, enable option "Imageable sides" for the front and/or back page, if required.
4. Import the paper catalog of the Fiery Print Server into PRISMAprepare.
It is recommended that you select option [Merge with the existing media catalog] when you
import the media catalog. Now, PRISMAprepare can use the media of the printer for
automatic media mapping.
