name. From any Windows computer on the network, at the MS-
DOS command prompt, type:
ping <IP address>
Type the Fiery IP address assigned in Fiery Network Setup.
After the Fiery is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the
name you gave to the Fiery:
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as
Reply from <IP address> ...
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output
from the IP address. To stop the output, type Control-C. You can
use the ping command at any time.
To print to the Fiery
•
On a UNIX system running SunOS 4.x or other BSD-based variant,
use the lpr command to send a job to the Fiery.
•
On a UNIX system running Solaris 2.x or any System V
implementation of UNIX, use the lp command to send a job to the
Fiery.
•
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 users with the TCP/IP
protocol loaded can send print jobs to the Fiery from their
applications or from a command prompt.
When Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 users print from
applications, they can set print options with the driver but not
from the UNIX command line.
