To use Command WorkStation, you must connect to a Fiery server.

The Servers list of Command WorkStation manages access to any available Fiery server. You can choose to add (and connect to), remove, and disconnect from, a Fiery server.

You can search for a Fiery server by entering the server name or IP address in the dialog box. After the server connection is made and authenticated, the IP address switches to the Fiery server name in the Servers list. Command WorkStation can be connected to more than one Fiery server at a time.

If the connection to the Fiery server is disconnected, Command WorkStation attempts to reconnect automatically. For more information about Autoreconnect, see Set Command WorkStation preferences.

If any of the Command WorkStation plugin windows are currently open at the time of losing the connection to the Fiery server, Fiery Impose, Fiery Compose, or Fiery JobMaster will display a message to the user, and provide an option to save the job as a flattened PDF.

For more information about saving as a flattened PDF, see the Fiery JobMaster-Fiery Impose-Fiery Compose Help.
