1-45 Using Fiery EX2101 software for the first time
Configuring the connection for Fiery utilities
The first time you start one of the Fiery utilities, you must configure the connection to
the Fiery EX2101. Similar configuration is used for all Fiery utilities, so a change in
one configuration affects all the other connections. Configuration for Fiery utilities is
described in the procedures that follow.
For configuration of specific Fiery utilities, see the following:
• “Configuring the connection for Fiery Downloader, Fiery Spooler, and
Command WorkStation” on page 1-45
• “Configuring the connection for Fiery VDP Resource Manager” on page 1-51
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• Print the Configuration page from the Control Panel.
This page contains information necessary for configuring the connection, such as the
IP address. For TCP/IP installations, you can use the DNS name of the Fiery EX2101
instead of the IP address. Make sure the Fiery EX2101 is already registered in a
Domain Name Server (DNS) on your network. For more information, see your
Windows system documentation.
