About the Documentation This manual is part of a set of Fiery documentation that includes About the following manuals for users and system administrators. Most Documentationthe are available as Acrobat PDF (Portable Document Format) files on the User Documentation CD. • The EFI User Software Installation Guide describes how to install software from the User Software CD to enable users to print to the Fiery, and also describes setting up printing connections to the Fiery.
Introduction About this manual This manual is intended for Fiery operators and administrators, or users with the necessary access privileges, who monitor and manage job flow, manipulate jobs, and troubleshoot problems that may arise. It describes the functions and features of the Fiery® job management utilities—Command WorkStation, Command WorkStation LE, and Fiery Spooler™—for the purposes of job management and quality control.
Introduction • Chapter 4 describes how to preview, edit, and merge jobs using the Preview windows of Command WorkStation and Command WorkStation LE. • Chapter 5 describes how to use the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro to arrange the pages of your print job in special layouts for folding, binding, or cutting after printing. The Imposition feature is available only if you have installed the DocBuilder Pro option for Command WorkStation.
About this manual • Printer Control Language (PCL)—A computer language designed as a page description language. The Fiery also uses this language to image the page, and communicate with applications. • Job—A file consisting of PostScript or PCL commands and comments that describe the graphics, sampled images, and text that should appear on each page of a document, and the printer options that should be used in printing, such as media or finishing options. • Spool—Write to a disk.
1 1-16 Job environments Chapter 1: About Job Management This chapter explains the basic principles of job management in an operator-controlled print environment and provides an overview of the Fiery job management utilities. Job environments The Fiery supports several control levels of printing, job management, and Setup, and gives you the flexibility to choose a configuration that corresponds to the requirements of your site.
1 1-17 Understanding job flow Setting up an operator-controlled environment This manual assumes you are working in an operator-controlled environment with responsibility for managing job flow. To establish an operator-controlled environment, you or the administrator must complete the following tasks: Set up password privileges—The administrator must set up separate passwords for operator access and administrator access to the Fiery.
1 1-18 About Job Management Spooling, processing, and printing Spooling To understand job flow through the Fiery, it is helpful to consider the three main stages of printing. Spooling—When a job file is sent over the network by a remote Processing user or imported from disk, it arrives at the Fiery and spools to a location on the hard disk drive. After spooling completely, the job is held on the hard disk drive, where it awaits further instructions from the operator.
1 1-19 Understanding job flow Visualizing job flow As the operator, your job management tools permit holding and releasing a job at any stage of the job flow. In the following illustration, solid boxes indicate the types of job status flags you may see in the Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE Active Jobs window. Boldface items represent commands you can issue from a job management utility to release held jobs.
1 1-20 About Job Management Print and Hold—When you issue the Print and Hold command for a held job, the job is released for immediate processing and printing. However, a raster copy of the original job remains in processed/held status, even after the original job finishes printing.
1 1-21 Communicating with users Are custom simulations available? If so, what type of targets do they represent? Although users see these print options, they should not select them if there are no custom targets on the Fiery.
1 1-22 About Job Management As the operator, we recommend that you tell remote users which job ticket information you check when receiving a print job, and the information you require in order to print jobs they send. Job ticket information You can view and potentially override the print options specified by users by checking job ticket information.
1 1-23 Overview of the job management utilities Overview of the job management utilities The Fiery includes the following job management utilities: • Command WorkStation • Command WorkStation LE (Mac OS X) • Fiery Spooler (Mac OS 9.x) These utilities are designed for use by operators who must track and manage jobs and oversee general job flow through the Fiery.
1 1-24 About Job Management The features of Command WorkStation LE are similar to those of Command WorkStation. For information on Command WorkStation LE, see Chapters 2 and 3. Fiery Spooler Fiery Spooler must be installed on a networked Mac OS 9.x computer and can only be used on that computer. Fiery Spooler offers job management functions similar to those of Command WorkStation. The default Fiery Spooler user interface is shown in the following illustration.

6 6-138 Advanced Features of DocBuilder Pro Apply To In Fixed Page mode, the scaling settings you specify are applied to all pages in a job. In Mixed Page mode, you can apply scaling to specific slots on sheets. The number of slots on a sheet depends on the Rows and Columns values. The slot size is determined by dividing the maximum imageable area of the sheet by the number of slots. Current Slot—Applies scaling to the currently selected page.
6 6-139 Imposition settings Custom—Enables the Scale Factor and Finished Height and Width fields, so that you can specify new scaling values. The original height and width values are displayed for your reference. When you specify a value, DocBuilder Pro automatically updates the other fields to preserve the height-to-width aspect ratio of the page. Clipping indicators If you supply scaling values that would cause the page to print past the edge of the sheet, DocBuilder Pro provides a visual warning.
6 6-140 Advanced Features of DocBuilder Pro The Alignment controls allow you to specify the placement of a page within its predefined slot on the sheet. For example, if the page has been scaled smaller than the slot, you can align the page to the upper-left corner of the slot by clicking the Alignment control corresponding to that position.

7 7-164 Fiery WebSpooler and Fiery Spooler Note: If an icon appears to the left of an option name, it indicates that changing the option’s setting requires the job to be reRIPped. When you override these types of options, the job is automatically reRIPped for printing. The options set here are the same ones you set from the Print dialog box when you print from an application. For information about setting and overriding these print options, see Appendix A of the Printing Guide.
7 7-165 Job icons hold.
7 7-166 Fiery WebSpooler and Fiery Spooler Hold queue jobs—When printing requires an operator (because the Print queue and Direct connection are disabled), the operator must assign a destination to all jobs received from users on the network (Icon 1). Once assigned, jobs move down the Spool queue for processing (Icons 2, 3, and 4). All jobs printed to the Hold queue require routing by an operator.

A A-182 Appendix A: Basics of Imposition Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro This chapter introduces the basic concepts of imposition and can be used as an introductory tutorial for imposing a document that will be printed as a book or booklet. For more detailed information on the Imposition main window and its components, see Chapters 5 and 6.
A A-183 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro a process inherently faster than printing a single page at a time. DocBuilder Pro allows you to image multiple pages on a single sheet, but output directly on your Fiery, rather than traditional printing presses. In this manual, the paper on which a job is imaged is referred to as the sheet. The printed sheet is folded into something resembling a booklet with connected pages.
A A-184 Basics of Imposition 3. Position the signature with the vertically folded edge to the left and the horizontally folded edges across the top. The paper should now resemble a small eight-page booklet (with the tops of pages joined at the fold). 4. Page through the booklet as if you were reading it, and number each page sequentially. Number the front and back of each page—in general, books have content on both sides of each page.
A A-185 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro Notice that: • The folds subdivide the sheet into areas representing pages in the final booklet. • Page numbers do not appear in book-reading order. • Some page numbers are upside down.
A A-186 Basics of Imposition A DocBuilder Pro layout designates the location of folds, cuts, and other elements by means of markings called printer’s marks, which appear on the printed sheet outside the main content area of the job. • The job label comprises descriptive text such as the name of the job, a sheet identifier, and the date and time the sheet was printed.
A A-187 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro DocBuilder Pro makes it easy to set up gutters and specify a set of printer’s marks to image on the finished sheet, as shown in the following illustration. Job label Trim marks Fold mark Gutter Margin Additional sheets A book layout must also adjust the placement of pages according to the total number of pages in the job. For example, a book is often composed of more pages than can be printed on a single sheet.
A A-188 Basics of Imposition insert blank pages intentionally, for example after the cover page, after the table of contents, or between chapters. To insert blank pages, open the job in the Thumbnail A window, right-click the page you want to add the blank to (or pull down the Page menu), and select Insert blank page. DocBuilder Pro allows you to add blank pages or add, delete, and rearrange pages from multiple source documents easily, so you can quickly preview the results of page manipulations.
A A-189 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro Binding methods A book layout also specifies the means by which sheets are gathered and bound. Stitching or stapling finished pages across a common center fold, or spine, is called saddle stitch binding, and the stitched pages are called a saddle. Multiple folded sheets can be stitched into the same saddle as a group. Stacking signatures, grinding the spines off, and then gluing them together is called perfect binding.
A A-190 Basics of Imposition DocBuilder Pro reorders imposed pages automatically according to your choice of binding method, which can save a significant amount of time and effort. Consider, for example, what must be done when a book that was to be saddle stitched exceeds the bindery’s maximum page count and must be reimposed as a perfect-bound book. To redo the imposition by traditional means would be labor- labour-intensive; with DocBuilder Pro, it takes only moments.
A A-191 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro Creep becomes more noticeable as the number of groups in a saddle increases, and its effect is most noticeable on pages farthest from the center fold of the saddle. Consequently, a book layout must also specify the number of groups in each saddle because the number of groups in each saddle affects the amount of creep that needs to be accounted for.
A A-192 Basics of Imposition printing, the sheet is cut apart to produce individual cards. Gang Up Repeat layout This job can be made even more efficient by eliminating the gutters between cards, allowing you to reduce significantly the number of cuts required to separate each card from its neighbour neighbor. Defining zero-width gutters on a shared cut line in this manner is called using a common blade for those cuts.
A A-193 Printing books with the Imposition feature of DocBuilder Pro multiple jobs on the same sheet is known as Gang Up Unique. DocBuilder Pro provides both Gang Up Repeat and Gang Up Unique.
B B-194 Appendix B: Templates 1-Up Full Bleed T This appendix gives descriptions of the built-in templates provided with DocBuilder Pro. 1-Up Full Bleed The 1-Up Full Bleed layout is used to print one page per sheet. The printer’s marks indicate where to cut the paper so that the color content extends to the edge of the paper.
B B-195 2-Up Perfect 2-Up Perfect The 2-Up Perfect layout is used to create signatures for a perfect bound book. Each sheet is folded once and stacked on top of one another. For more information on binding methods, see page A-189.
B B-196 TTemplates The 2-Up Perfect layout should be used with jobs that have multiples of four pages, but it can be used with jobs that have any number of pages. Additional blank pages will be added if necessary. Pages will be ordered in groups of four so that when folded each sheet has four sequential pages.
B B-197 2-Up Saddle 2-Up Saddle The 2-Up Saddle layout is used to create sheets for a saddle bound book. All of the sheets are folded together, one inside the other. For more information on binding methods, see page A-189.
B B-198 TTemplates The 2-Up Saddle layout should be used with jobs that have multiples of four pages, but it can be used with jobs that have any number of pages. Additional blank pages will be added if necessary. Pages will be ordered so that when sheets are folded and stitched together, the pages will be sequential.
B B-199 3-Up Trifold Brochure 3-Up Trifold Brochure The 3-Up Trifold Brochure layout consists of a single sheet folded into three sections. Although the three sections are the same width, the space between each section varies so that the leftmost panel can be folded over the other two panels.
B B-200 TTemplates The 3-Up Trifold Brochure layout can be used only with jobs that have six pages. If the job contains more or less than six pages, an error message appears. The pages will be ordered as follows: 3 6 Sheet 1, front side 1 2 4 5 Sheet 1, back side The 3-Up Trifold Brochure is usually folded as shown in the following illustration.
B B-201 4-Up Gate Fold 4-Up Gate Fold The 4-Up Gate Fold layout is used most often in the case of a four-panel brochure. The finished brochure unfolds to double, then four times the original size.
B B-202 TTemplates The 4-Up Gate Fold layout can be used only with jobs that have eight pages. If the job contains more or less than eight pages, an error message appears. The pages will be ordered as follows: 3 8 Sheet 1, front side 1 2 4 5 6 7 Sheet 1, back side The 4-Up Gate Fold is usually folded as shown in the following illustration.
B B-203 4-Up Head to Head 4-Up Head to Head The 4-Up Head to Head layout is used to create booklets from a layout of four pages on each side of the printed sheet. By rotating the two topmost pages, the signature can be folded both horizontally and vertically, and trimmed. The finished booklet will have all pages in the correct order and rotation.
TTemplates with two folds at 90 degrees, trimmed, and stitched together into signatures, the pages will be sequential. Note that although this layout requires two folds, the template applies a fold mark on the spine fold only.
B B-205 4-Up Z-Fold 4-Up Z-Fold The 4-Up Z-Fold layout allows many panels to be folded on top of one another without stressing the folded spine. The most common example is a road map.
B B-206 TTemplates The 4-Up Z-Fold layout is used only for jobs that have eight pages. If the job contains more or less than eight pages, an error message appears. The pages will be ordered as follows: 2 3 Sheet 1, front side 4 5 6 7 8 1 Sheet 1, back side The 4-Up Z-Fold is usually folded as shown in the following illustration.
C C-207 Error messages This appendix describes error messages you might see, and Appendix C: Troubleshooting provides some troubleshooting guidelines should a problem arise with the Fiery, Command WorkStation LE, or Command WorkStation. If you are unable to resolve a problem after referring to this chapter, contact your Sharp dealer. Error messages Error messages can result from problems with the job, the Fiery, Command WorkStation, Command WorkStation LE, Fiery Spooler, or the printer.
C C-208 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Before you call for service, follow the suggestions in this section. If you are unable to resolve the problem, make a note of the error condition and contact your Sharp dealer. Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE does not respond If the Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE windows do not update, log off and then quit Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE. Restart Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE, or restart the computer.
C C-209 Troubleshooting Unexpected printing results If this happens This is the problem The job settings are not carried out as you expected. If the user printed from Apple Mac OS, there may be two conflicting print settings. You can check the job properties by double-clicking the job. For a table of job properties and conflicting properties, see Appendix A of the Printing Guide. Notify users of these conflicts so they can avoid them in the future.
C C-210 Troubleshooting Clearing the server Clearing the server is an Administrator option that can be used as a last resort if a job persists in the system and prevents printing despite attempts to cancel or delete it. Clear the server if all other troubleshooting methods have failed. You can clear the server by using the Server > Clear Server command in Command WorkStation or the Server > Clear Server command in Command WorkStation LE.
C C-211 Troubleshooting If you have configured the Fiery and set up client computers and network servers according to guidelines in the Configuration Guide and the User Software Installation Guide, try printing a Test Page (in Command WorkStation or Command WorkStation LE, choose Print Pages from the Server menu). If you can print the Test Page but still cannot print a document from a remote computer, contact the system administrator to troubleshoot the network connection.
