ADMINISTERING THE FIERY CONTROLLER 68
Allowing users to define a search path for a single job
A user can enter a single search path when the user sends the job from a Windows printer
driver, or when someone later overrides the job to include a search path. The path must be
fewer than 256 characters and in the format of either a mapped drive (for example, Z:\folder)
or a UNC (for example, \\computer name\folder).
To use a mapped drive, it must be recognized by the Integrated Fiery Color Server. For
example, if the user specifies a path on the user’s computer (for example, C:\My
Documents\VDP), the Integrated Fiery Color Server assumes this is the C:\ drive on the
Integrated Fiery Color Server. In another example, if “Z:” is a network drive that users access
on their network, the Integrated Fiery Color Server does not know the location to which “Z:”
refers. Therefore, you must map a drive so that the Integrated Fiery Color Server also
recognizes the location where resources are stored.
If you have enabled Remote Desktop in Setup, connect to the Integrated Fiery Color Server
with Remote Desktop and use the following procedure.
TO MAP A DRIVE TO A LETTER RECOGNIZED BY THE INTEGRATED FIERY COLOR SERVER
1 From a Windows Explorer window, choose Tools > Map Network Drive.
2 In the Drive menu, choose a letter that is not currently mapped.
3 In the path field, type the UNC of the network computer that contains the shared resources,
or click Browse and locate the computer on the network.
4 Click Finish.
5 If you are prompted to enter a network password, type Administrator in the Connect As field,
type the password in the Password field, and click OK.
6 Inform the user to use the drive letter in the VDP search path when the user sends the job to
the Integrated Fiery Color Server.
