Setting Up Media with a Custom Barcode in Offline Mode
When the stock does not have a barcode and the press is not connected to the Internet, the Stock Wizard cannot communicate with the PredictPrint Cloud Server to generate a barcode. Before you generate a custom barcode, ensure that you have a portable USB storage device.
1. On the Stock Wizard Setup screen, select a Paper Edge Feed option:
• Long Edge Feed
• Short Edge Feed
2. Click Next.
3. To get a barcode and complete the stock setup, insert a USB storage device into the Fiery Print Server. Click Copy Stock File.
4. Save the stock file on the USB storage device.
6. Upload the stock file from the USB storage device to the PredictPrint Cloud Server. The PredictPrint Cloud Server generates a new barcode with stock setup routines. Save the setup and barcode information to the USB storage device.
7. Ensure that the tray is loaded with the stock for which you need a barcode.
8. Insert the USB storage device into a USB port on the Fiery Print Server. On the Stock Wizard Setup screen, click Load Barcode File.
9. From the USB storage device, copy the file with stock setups and the barcode information to the PredictPrint Media Manager application. Click Next.
A barcode appears on the next screen.
10. To print the barcode, click Print Barcode.
11. To scan the barcode as needed in the future, keep the printed barcode for reference.
12. Click Accept and Next.
The Stock Wizard starts the series of automatic setup routines.
