Back up Fiery server settings from Command WorkStation (FS400/400 Pro and later)

From Command WorkStation, you can choose which Fiery server settings you want to back up.

We recommend that you save the backup file to a network server, not the Fiery server itself. Otherwise, when you reinstall system software, the backup file is deleted.

Settings can be restored to another Fiery server of the same model and version, but settings such as Server Name, IP address and Network settings are not restored; the existing settings remain untouched. This prevents problems with both Fiery servers co-existing on the same network.

  1. Connect to the Fiery server as Administrator and do one of the following:

    • Click Device Center > General > Tools > Fiery Resources and Settings.

    • Select Server > Backup and Restore.

  2. In the new web browser window that appears, click Fiery Resources and Settings.
  3. Click Backup Now.
  4. Select the items you want to back up and click Continue.
  5. In the dialog box that appears, specify a name for the backup file.
  6. (Optional) Select Add date to file name.
  7. Click Continue.
  8. Download the file you want and specify a location for the file. You must choose an .fbf file and a .DAT file.
