Maintaining optimal Fiery performance
The Fiery does not require maintenance. Beyond the obvious requirements of servicing and maintaining the printer and replenishing consumables, you can improve the overall performance of your system by doing the following:
•Make the best use of your network connections
Publish only connections that will be used; the Fiery constantly checks all published connections, even if they are inactive. Match the NetWare polling interval and the number of queues or connections to the demand for printing.
Review the published connections by printing a Configuration page. Eliminate the connections that are not being used. It is easy to
•Leave less urgent jobs to times when there is less network traffic or printing
You can print recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent to the Hold queue. At
•Reduce unnecessary
Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may have a significant effect on Fiery performance.
•Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Fiery
Periodically review the list of jobs in the Hold queue and the number of jobs being retained in the Printed queue.
An administrator can print or delete jobs that are in the Printed queue and Hold queue. Consider printing or offloading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Fiery is frequently low, you can disable the Printed queue (in Server Setup) and choose not to publish the Hold queue (in Printer Setup).
To move or remove queued jobs, use the job management tools. When you free up disk space by removing inactive jobs, new jobs are spooled and printed more quickly.
