Returning the Fiery proServer system to an earlier state
It may occasionally be necessary to return the Fiery proServer system to an earlier state. You
can do this by:
• Using a backup that you have previously created
Fiery XF is restored with all the settings, including system environments, that were current
at the time the backup was created. Any settings made after the backup was created are
lost. For more information, see
“Backing up the Fiery proServer system” on page 9
• Returning the Fiery proServer system to its factory state
The Fiery XF license and all your Fiery XF settings, including system environments, are
deleted from the hard disk drives. You need to return the Fiery proServer to its factory
state, for example, if the default password has been changed and misplaced.
• Reinstalling the Fiery proServer from scratch
The Fiery XF license and all your Fiery XF settings, including system environments, are
deleted from the hard disk drives. You need to reinstall the Fiery proServer from scratch,
for example, after replacing a defective hard disk drive.
