Set Sample Print options in Configure

You can configure the Fiery Server to print sample prints at a predefined interval that spans print jobs.

Important: There are two versions of Configure and they are specific to the Fiery Server you are connected to. This is a combined procedure that describes what to do when connected to a Fiery Server with FS100/100Pro or earlier, and notes about what to do with FS150/150 Pro or later. If you are not sure which version of Configure you are using, see Which version of Configure am I using?.

This lets you print sample pages on a regular basis, either as a regular spot check or as a more methodical process where you can create an archive of printed sheets documenting the print quality at regular intervals.

In Configure, an Administrator can specify the content to print, the interval at which it is printed, and the output tray to use for the sample print job.

  1. In Configure (Server > Configure), click Server > Jobs.
    Note: If you are connected to a Fiery Server with FS150/150Pro, you can find this setting in Job Management > Sample Print.
  2. Specify Sample Print option settings as desired.
    • Frequency - Specify Every or On-demand. When you select Every, the Fiery Server prints a sample repeatedly as defined by the printed sheet(s) interval. A sample print can be printed for all jobs until the Fiery Server is restarted or the sample print mode is canceled, or for the current job only until it finishes printing or is canceled. When you select On-demand, a single sample is printed.

      Note: Printed sheets include all pages printed by the Fiery Server, including system pages.
    • Content - Specify Sheet (for any kind of job) or Sheet (for uncollated job) / Set (for collated jobs). When you select Sheet (for any kind of job), a single sheet is printed as the sample. If the job is collated, an entire output set is printed as the sample. If the job is uncollated, a single sheet is printed as the sample. If the sample content is a set and the printed sheet interval triggers the Fiery Server to print a sample, the Fiery Server will begin printing the sample at the beginning of the next set.

    • Output Tray - Specify the output tray for the sample print jobs. All installed output trays that do not require finishing options are listed.

      Note: The job's finishing options are not applied to the sample print job, except for duplex options.
  3. After you have changed the setting for an option, do one of the following:
    • On FS100/100 Pro or later: Click Undo or Apply.
    • On FS150/150 Pro or later: Click Cancel or Save.
  4. Restart the Fiery Server.
