Maintaining optimal Integrated Fiery Color Server performance

The Integrated Fiery Color Server does not require maintenance. Beyond the obvious
requirements of servicing and maintaining the digital press and replenishing consumables,
you can improve the overall performance of your system by doing the following:

• Make the best use of your network connections.

Publish only connections that will be used. The Integrated Fiery Color Server constantly
checks all published connections, even if they are inactive.

Review the published connections by printing a Configuration page. Eliminate the
connections that are not being used. It is easy to re-establish them when needed.

• Leave less urgent jobs to times when there is less network traffic or printing.

You can print recurring print jobs or jobs that are not urgent to the Hold queue.
At low-traffic times, the administrator or a user of the job management tools with Operator
privileges can move (or copy) all the Hold queue jobs to the Print queue for printing.

• Reduce unnecessary network communication.

Large numbers of users running Fiery utilities, especially with frequent updates, may have a
significant effect on Integrated Fiery Color Server performance.

• Make sure you have adequate disk space on the Integrated Fiery Color Server.

Periodically review the list of jobs in the Hold queue, and the number of jobs being retained
in the Printed queue.

An administrator can print or delete jobs that are in the Printed queue and Hold queue.
Consider printing or offloading inactive jobs. If disk space on the Integrated Fiery Color
Server is frequently low, you can disable the Printed queue and choose not to publish the
Hold queue (in Printer Setup).

To move or remove queued jobs, use the job management tools. When you free up disk space
by removing inactive jobs, new jobs are spooled and printed more quickly.
