Levels of access and control
To prepare for printing at your site, you need to do some initial Fiery configuration, or
Setup, to specify the network environment and the kind of printing you will do. Before
you perform Setup, you must decide the levels of access you will implement for your
site. Administrators and operators must also understand how Fiery system software is
structured in order to configure and use the Fiery system correctly.

Levels of access and control
When you configure the Fiery during Setup, you (as system administrator) implement
a particular level of control by enabling or not enabling print connections, passwords,
and access to Fiery WebTools. The level of control you implement can range from
strict to moderate to minimal—or none at all.

• Strictest control might be appropriate for a high-volume printing environment
where an administrator or operator controls the job flow and all printing; jobs sent
by users are spooled (stored) to the Fiery disk until the operator decides it is time to
print them. In addition, only the administrator and/or operator have access to job
management tools.

The term “job management tools” is used in this manual to refer to the
Command WorkStation, Fiery Spooler, and Fiery WebSpooler.
• Least control might be appropriate for a small site where anyone on the local
network can control all printing and Fiery functions. Although there may be an
administrator or operator charged with certain duties, all users have equal access to
the system and job management tools.

Fiery print connections
The Fiery supports three print connections: Hold queue, Print queue, and Direct
connection. These print connections can be enabled, or “published,” to users on the
network when you configure Printer Setup. All published connections are constantly
checked for the presence of jobs. The Print queue and the Direct connection give
remote users more direct access to the Fiery than the Hold queue. Therefore, do not
publish the Print queue and the Direct connection in environments where stricter
control is desired.
