PRINTING THROUGH UNIDRIVER
Unidriver is a special printer driver that was developed by EFI. Like a virtual printer,
Unidriver enables you to print directly to a Fiery XF server on Windows or Macintosh from
any graphics program. However, Unidriver has the following advantages:
• You can print to more than one Fiery XF workflow.
• You can make custom settings that override the equivalent workflow settings in Fiery XF.
Custom settings can be applied to all jobs — including jobs that you submit from other
graphics programs.
You can install Unidriver on an unlimited number of computers.
Windows
This section provides instructions on how to install, set up, and print through Unidriver for
Windows. You need administrator or power user rights.
TO INSTALL UNIDRIVER
If Unidriver is already installed on one computer, you can copy the program files to another
computer. By default, Unidriver is installed in the folder ..\EFI\Fiery Unidriver. Copy the
EFI-Unidriver folder to the desktop of another computer. Then, double-click the
PrinterInstaller application file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
If Unidriver is not already installed on another computer, you can install it from the
installation DVD, as described below:
1 Insert the installation DVD into the DVD-ROM drive of the computer on which the graphics
program is installed.
The Welcome screen appears.
