MEMBER PRINTING

Owners of Fierys concerned with the proper use of their equipment have long wanted a mechanism that
would limit the use of the Fiery to authorized users and track the usage of the Fierys and copiers. Owners
want to be able to set up a Fiery on a network and remain confident only authorized users print to the
Fiery. Administrators have also wanted a mechanism to force Fiery users to enter valid tracking
information in the custom notes fields in the Fiery print drivers.

EATURE

:

When Member Printing is enabled, this feature requires all print jobs to include a valid matched account
name and password to be processed to the Fiery.  This provides administrators with 100% job
accountability while it prevents unwanted users from printing

:

When the Fiery begins to process the job, it checks the group name/password with the Fiery’s internal
database.  If the group name/password is not a valid match, the job will generate an error and move to
the printed queue.

IMPORTANT:

  

Prior to setting up the printing groups, you must within the Run Setup\Server

Setup on the LCD, specify whether to 

Enable Printer Groups

 for Member Printing.
