Import a job into the Print queue

Print files by importing them directly to the Fiery Server. You can import multiple jobs at a time and maintain the format of the files.

You must be an Administrator or Operator to import jobs. You can import multiple jobs at a time, if you wish. Importing files to a queue is similar to printing through a printer driver or application, but jobs sent using the Print command are converted to PostScript, unlike the Import function, which maintains the file format. You can import files by dragging and dropping them to

Connected Fiery Servers in the Servers list
Printing or Processing queues
Held list

However, for the best control over how files import, use the Import dialog box. With this dialog box, you can easily apply a workflow (server preset or virtual printer) to files at the time of import. Generally, you cannot do this when you import files by dragging and dropping (the Servers list is the only exception to this rule).

Drag and drop files or folders from the computer to the Printing or Processing queue, or the Held list. The Import dialog box does not display when you drag and drop files or folders to these locations. The entire contents of folders are imported.
To open the Import dialog box, do one of the following:
- Click File > Import Job.
- In Job Center, click the Import icon in the toolbar.
- Drag and drop files or folders to a connected Fiery Server in the Servers list.
In the Import dialog box, click Add and navigate to the location of the file you want to add, and then click Open. Repeat this for additional files you want to import.
If desired, use Move up and Move down buttons to change the order of import.
Do one of the following:
- Select Apply default settings.
- Select Apply Workflow and then choose from a list of server presets and virtual printers which are currently published on the Fiery Server.
The two options above only appear if server presets or virtual printers have been set up on the Fiery Server.
Select a job action. For example:
- Process and Hold (default)
- Print
- Print & Hold
- Print & Delete
Other choices may appear based on the capabilities of the Fiery Server. If supported by your Fiery Server, you can also specify sequential printing to maintain the printed order for print runs consisting of many jobs.
