Setting up network servers
Installing the Fiery SI as a PostScript printer
The first step in creating a printer is installing the Windows NT PostScript printer
driver and the Fiery SI PPD (PostScript printer description), which gives your
applications access to some copier or printer features.
The installation instructions in Getting Started can be used for every workstation that
will print directly and independently to the Fiery SI. However, if you are an
administrator running Windows NT Server or Windows NT Workstation, you can
share a printer you created with clients on the network. When a printer is shared,
clients who are not able or are not given permission to establish an independent
network connection to the Fiery SI have to print through the server.

Windows NT Installation CD to install the Windows NT PostScript printer driver
and the Fiery SI PPD.
