1 Open the Fiery XF client software by double-clicking the program icon on the desktop. 

If the setup wizard does not automatically start, on the System menu, click Setup Wizard.

2 Click Continue at the Introduction window.

3 Under “Workflow, select “Production”.

4 Under “Template”, select an “EFI Inkjet Solutions” workflow template.

Each workflow template has been been pre-configured for either standard or maximum print 
quality and with color management settings that are typically used in either America or 
Europe. The “Description” area shows the recommended application for use and which 
standard icc profiles will be applied to jobs that are processed in that workflow.

5 Click Continue.

6 Under “Select a device”, select “Create a new output device”. Then, select your EFI printer, 

and your device type.

7 Click Continue.

8 Select “File output” and specify an export folder.

The default folder is D:\Export (Fiery proServer SE), or E:\Export (Fiery proServer 
Premium).

• EFI  VUTEk

When you print to file, print files are saved in RTL and GIF format to the specified export 
folder. The GIF file is used to display a preview of the job on a VUTEk User Interface 
(VUI). GIF files can be opened in any conventional graphics program.

For users of Fiery proServer Premium: Be aware that you require one EFI Output option 
for each VUTEk printer. If you need to set up more than one VUTEk printer, you require 
an additional license.

For users of Fiery proServer SE: Your software is licensed for one particular printer model. 
This configuration cannot be changed.

If your VUTEk printer supports bi-directional communication with Fiery XF and you 
have an appropriate Fiery XF license, you can also print via the IP network. If the Fiery XF 
workflow is set up for bi-directional communication, Fiery XF can:

Automatically transfer RTL print files to the VUTEk user interface (VUI)

Transmit information about the current job status back to a print MIS device and to 
Fiery XF

Receive information about media consumption and ink consumption from the printer

Receive print-ready jobs from the print MIS device and submit them to the printer
