Printing to the Fiery SI

You can print to the Fiery SI directly from UNIX. Jobs printed to the Fiery SI are sent
to the Print or Hold queue and can be manipulated from Macintosh and PC
computers on the network.

You should print to the Hold queue only if you have a Macintosh or PC with

Fiery XJ Spooler connected to the Fiery SI, so that you can move the jobs from the
Hold queue to the Print queue.

The queue name and Fiery SI printer name are established by your system
administrator. Contact your system administrator for the name of your queues.

Printing to the Fiery SI

You can use UNIX commands to print PostScript files and text files to the Fiery SI. In

a Fiery SI. See your UNIX manual pages or other documentation for information
