X2-W:
1. Power off the Fiery X2-W before connecting it to any network device.
2. With the AUI slide latch in the open position, connect the network cable to the AUI
port on the back of the Fiery X2-W (see h in illustration of back panel on page 1).
Slide the latch to lock the connector in place.
• To connect a 10Base2 thinnet cable to the Fiery X2-W, an Ethernet transceiver must
be installed on the Fiery X2-W AUI port. The thinnet cable then connects to the
BNC connector on the Ethernet transceiver. If the transceiver has an
SQE
switch,
make sure the switch is set to OFF.
• To connect a 10Base5 thicknet cable to the Fiery X2-W, connect the AUI drop cable
directly to the AUI port on the back of the Fiery X2-W.
3. Work with the system administrator at the customer site to configure Setup options.
Use the Configuration page from the deinstalled Fiery X2-W as a guide.
(Network setup is detailed in the
Administrator Guide
that came with the user
documentation.)
4. Verify the network connection and perform any additional network Setup required.
Print a Configuration page from the Print Pages submenu (see page 2) for reference.
5. Verify that the Fiery X2-W appears in the list of printers on a networked computer,
and print a few test documents from a computer that will use the Fiery X2-W.
