102Installation and Service Guide: Color Controller E-46A
Installing System Software
• User software: The E-46A ships with preinstalled user software on the hard disk drive. During system software
reinstallation, you are prompted to reinstall user software (including Command WorkStation) from WebTools. For
more information, see Utilities, which is part of the user documentation set.
• System updates log: When you reinstall system software, the applied system updates are deleted. Print the Server
Configuration page (see page 30) to see the list of applied system updates. The applied system updates are listed
under the Fiery Updates, Application Updates, and OS Updates sections of the Configuration page. If there have
been no patches added to the system software, the System Updates sections will not be listed in the Configuration
page nor will the System Updates be listed in the Fiery Ticker.
• Monitor profiles: When you reinstall system software, monitor profiles saved on the hard disk drive are deleted.
Monitor profiles for the E-46A monitor are automatically reinstalled when you reinstall Command WorkStation on
the system.
• Compatibility: After you upgrade system software, remind the site administrator to upgrade user software on all
computers connected to the E-46A. Using old user software with new system software may negatively affect the
system.

Install both system software DVDs when you replace a hard disk drive or upgrade to the latest version of the E-46A
software. You can install software from the following disks:
• System Software DVD 1— Fiery System Software for the E-46A.
