xi About this manual

Introduction

This manual is intended for anyone who is responsible for integrating the ColorPASS-Z5000 Color Server™ into a business environment that includes networked personal computers. After you set up the ColorPASS-Z5000 Color Server and client workstations as described in this manual and in Getting Started, individual users can print to the ColorPASS-Z5000 Color Server as a high-performance color PostScript printer.

NOTE: The term “ColorPASS” is used in this manual to refer to the ColorPASS-Z5000 Color Server.

The ColorPASS supports the CLC5000 color copier.

The ColorPASS includes support for the Fiery WebTools™ and software for the Command WorkStation™, which enable an operator to manage all jobs sent to the ColorPASS. Although it may not be the case at all sites, the documentation for this product assumes the presence of an operator who controls and manages jobs sent by users from remote workstations.

Any connectivity or administrative features specific to the copier are described in Getting Started, the Printing Guide, or the Release Notes.
