Re: C550 Bizhub and Fiery Controller 1409

all fierys should be setup LPR for the best results.

just use the correct driver and set this as the port and you can use Direct instead of Print for this.

How do you use Direct? Where is Direct? I am completely unfamiliar with what you are saying. It sounds like it might work, but I really need child like instruction. Sorry

add a printer, choose standard tcpip port, type in the IP for the Fiery, point to the correct driver and when setup is done choose properties, ports, tic the bullet for LPR, type Direct as the queue, save.
print a test page then drag the password file on to the printer icon to print.

Re: C550 Bizhub and Fiery Controller 1409

no need to be seen in windows as a network device, i turn off windows printing. no need for it since winxp this i got from EFI class. LPR is much more reliable without wasting resources on the fiery. and frees up more memory on the fiery.
even loaded on a MAC you use LPD and the IP and Print for the queue (in normal cases)
using window printing (\\fiery\port) i found if the copier jams or is out of paper, it switches to offline in the printer folder and jobs get held up even though the copier is back ready to go.
it may not happen all the time but after reloading it LPR my customers dont call for queue constipation.
your mileage may vary, i can only share my experiences and what i do that works reliably.
sometimes the USB ports on the fiery are set to auto print, you can try putting the file on a usb stick and plug it into the fiery?
if you are looking for a faster fix you can rerun system software.
lemme know if you need it, ill give you a link.

I agree, but you have to agree that \\ is one of the fastest ways to connect and be off to the races, the guy just needs the direct queue up and running... Since he hasn't figured out how to just inpot the file.

oh i totally agree its the easiest, i just hate callbacks but for this exercise any way to get the password to print would be great.
also spending less than an hour reloading system software is the route i would take at this point in his shoes.

It can be possible, that you have an european configured machine.
Try instead of "Fiery.1" the "Fierz.1".

I got the machine working and everything is great. I was able to recover password. Thanks everyone for your help.
