This chapter describes how to use the EFI Hot Folders application to store and 
reuse frequently used print options when printing PostScript and PDF files on the 
Fiery EX2101. The Hot Folders application is an optional feature of the Fiery Graphic 
Arts Package that is enabled by a dongle.

A Hot Folder is a special folder to which you can assign a group of print options. 
To print a document, drag and drop the document file onto the Hot Folder. The 
Hot Folder application routes the job to a corresponding print queue using the print 
options associated with that Hot Folder.

After printing original data, you may notice additional numbers at the end of 

the original file name.

You can create as many Hot Folders as you want on your computer. You can also share 
Hot Folders with other users on the network by creating shortcuts to the folders from 
remote computers. 

To begin working with Hot Folders, create one or more Hot Folders, assigning print 
options and a print queue to each (see 

page 6-4). You can then print jobs by dragging and dropping the document files onto 
the corresponding Hot Folders. You can also print a job by printing the document file 
from the source application, with the appropriate Hot Folder specified as the print 
destination. The Hot Folder Control Panel allows you to manage your Hot Folders 
and monitor the status of jobs sent to the folders (see
