Create a Local or Server Preset

If you are an Administrator, you can create, edit, rename, unpublish, publish, and delete Server Presets in Device Center > Workflows > Job Presets. You can save a Local Preset in the Job Properties window only.

You create a Local or Server Preset by choosing the settings in the Job Properties window, and then saving them in the Presets list.

Administrators can save a preset as a Local Preset or Server Preset. Operators can save only a Local Preset.

Create a local preset

Administrators and operators can save settings in the Job Properties window as local presets.

  1. Double-click a job in the Held or Printed list, or select the job and do one of the following:

    • Right-click to select Properties.

    • Click Job Center > Properties.

    • Click Actions > Properties.

  2. Adjust the print settings for each tab as desired.
  3. Under Presets, choose Save Preset.
  4. Enter a descriptive name for the preset, and select Local or Printer Group Local for the preset type. For Fiery Central, the preset name is unique across the printer groups.
  5. Click Save.

The Local Presets are available any time you access the Job Properties window. They remain on your local hard disk until you delete them.

Note: The user authentication information, such as the user name and password, are not saved as part of the preset.

Create a server preset

Administrators can save settings in the Job Properties window as server presets. These presets are saved on the Fiery Server and shared with its users.

  1. Click Device Center > Workflows > Job Presets.
  2. Click New. For Fiery Central, the printer group is automatically selected according to the selection in the preset pane.
  3. Enter a descriptive name for the preset. Spaces are not valid in preset names.
  4. Enter a description for the preset (optional).
  5. For Fiery Central, select one of the available printer groups and specify print settings from Job Properties.
  6. Click Define to specify the job properties, and then click Save.
Note: The user authentication information, such as the user name and password, are not saved as part of the preset.

The Server Presets are available any time you access Device Center or the Job Properties window. They remain on the Fiery Server until an Administrator deletes them.

After a Server Preset is created, the Settings pane (located on the right side) shows the settings modified from the defaults, and locked settings. The Server Preset is published automatically so it can be shared with other users connected to the Fiery Server.
