Using Fiery Downloader
Fiery Downloader allows you to send PostScript, Encapsulated PostScript (EPS), and
Portable Document Format (PDF) files directly to the ColorPASS without using the
application they were created in. It also enables you to manage printer fonts on the
ColorPASS.
You can use Fiery Downloader from a remote workstation as well as from the
Command WorkStation. Fiery Downloader requires a network connection. For
information on installing and configuring Fiery Downloader and on supported
networking protocols, see Getting Started.

The Windows and Mac OS versions of Fiery Downloader are fundamentally the
same; differences are noted in this section. Where both windows or dialog boxes are
illustrated, the Windows version comes first, followed by the Mac OS version.
Using Fiery Downloader
You can use Fiery Downloader to:
• Print PostScript, EPS, and PDF files to the ColorPASS
• Check the status of the ColorPASS
• Manage the printer fonts stored on the ColorPASS hard disk (this feature requires
that the Direct connection is published on the ColorPASS)

Fiery Downloader was designed specifically for the ColorPASS; you cannot use
it with any other printer. You can use standard LaserWriter downloaders, such as the
Adobe Font Downloader, with the ColorPASS.
