EFI Fiery Configuration And Setup

TROUBLESHOOTING 50
Printer not found
Most failures to find a printer on the network are due to conflicting or missing name or
address settings for the Fiery Controller. You must enter names in specific places.
The required names are:
• TCP/IP host name (also known as the DNS name), which is defined by your organization.
Enter the host name as the Server Name in Fiery Controller Setup.
• Remote printer (internal machine) name. Use one of the following:
print
hold
direct
N
OTE: If you change the DNS name (TCP/IP host name) of the Fiery Controller, you must
reconfigure one of the utilities on each computer.
For the appropriate name, see the following table.

parameters (for example, for TCP/IP, the IP address), and you must publish the Print queue
or Hold queue.
Check these settings quickly by printing a Configuration page.
