1 In System Manager click the workflow. Set the workflow offline by clicking the green arrow at
workflow entry.
The green arrow turns into a red box. A red box indicates that the workflow has been
interrupted.
2 Click the workflow. Then, on the File tab, open the Job Detection pane.
3 Browse to the folder that you want to use as a hotfolder.
It is recommended that you use a local folder on the Fiery proServer.
Hotfolders must be set up for sharing to enable users to access them. It is recommended that
you create a hotfolder that is a subfolder of a folder at root level on the hard disk — for
example, D:\Jobs\Hotfolder, D:\Export\Hotfolder (Fiery proServer SE), or
E:\Export\Hotfolder (Fiery proServer Premium). Observe the following:
• To avoid unnecessary read/write access problems, do not create a hotfolder on the desktop.
• Do not select a folder that has been mapped as an internal link.
4 Set the workflow back online, by clicking the red box at workflow entry.
The workflow is now monitoring the hotfolder.
5 In the toolbar, click Save.
For more information on how to set up the hotfolder for sharing, see the Fiery XF online
help.

FOLDER
You can transfer print files from the Export folder to the VUTEk printer software, as follows:
• If your VUTEk printer is connected via the IP network, Fiery XF automatically transfers
RTL print files to the Import folder that has been set up for the VUTEk user interface
(VUI). This is the preferred method for you to use.
• If your VUTEk printer is not connected via the IP network, the easiest way to transfer
RTL print files manually is to create a shortcut to the printer’s Import folder on the
Fiery proServer desktop (see below).

:
EFI Matan and EFI Reggiani printers do not support printing via the IP network. In
this case, you must copy the files from the Export folder manually to the printer.
