To configure a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server to communicate with the Fiery, follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections in this chapter and in your Microsoft documentation.

•Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the server and configure it with an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.

•Enter the host name of the Fiery in the host name database used by your system (see page 2-4).

•Perform Fiery Setup.

•On the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server, create a printer for each Fiery print connection, install the appropriate printer drivers, and (optionally) share the printer on the network (see page 2-5).

•Enter the host name and remote printer name of the Fiery in the printer connection. For more information, see page 2-18.

•If the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server is also a workstation, install Fiery utilities (see the User Software Installation Guide).
