2-1 Setting up the Fiery EX2101 as a PostScript printer
This chapter describes the procedures for installing the EX2101 user software and
setting up printing on a Mac OS computer.
The general steps for installing the software are as follows:
•Install the PostScript printer driver and printer description file.
•Set up the Fiery EX2101 in the Chooser (Mac OS 9) and the Print Center
(Mac OS X).
•Install the Fiery utilities (Fiery Downloader, Fiery VDP Resource Manager, and
Fiery Spooler).
• Configure the connection for Fiery utilities.
•Install the printer and screen fonts.
To print from a Mac OS computer, the PostScript option or the hard disk option must
be installed to the Fiery EX2101.
In addition to using the User Software CD, you can download printer drivers from the
Fiery EX2101 with the Installer WebTool (if the site administrator has enabled
Internet access to the Fiery EX2101). For instructions, see “Using the Installer
WebTool” on page 3-2. After you download the printer files, the installation process is
identical to installing from the User Software CD.
Setting up the Fiery EX2101 as a PostScript printer
To set up the Fiery EX2101 as a PostScript printer, you must install the PostScript
printer driver and the printer description file that corresponds to your copier. The
PostScript printer driver and printer description files are provided on the User Software
CD. Printer drivers provide a way to communicate information on print jobs between
your applications, the Fiery EX2101, and any other PostScript printer connected to
your computer.
