This User’s Guide provides instructions for installing and setting up the

ColorBurst®RIP (Raster Image Processor) software on your server and client

workstations. The software prepares your network for printing on the Epson

Stylus®Pro 4000 printer. This guide also explains environment setup and

printer linearization, printing from applications, and using hot folders for

drag-and-drop printing of supported files.

Your ColorBurst software CD-ROM includes the ColorBurst server

software and client PPD (PostScript®Printer Description) software, as well

as the ChromaCapture CSE (Macintosh®) or ColorBurst ColorCatch

(Windows) utility for printer linearization.

Before setting up the ColorBurst RIP, you should make sure you’ve set up

the Stylus Pro 4000 on the computer that will control the printer. Even if

you plan to connect the printer directly to the network, you should install

and configure it locally first. See your Stylus Pro 4000 Start Here sheet for

instructions.

Choosing a RIP Configuration

There are a number of options available for setting up the ColorBurst RIP

and your Stylus Pro 4000:

•Connect the printer via USB or Ethernet to a Macintosh OS X or

Windows computer with ColorBurst installed. That system acts as the

RIP server on the network. You can print from that computer or send

print jobs from other computers on your network. If you have both Mac

OS X and Windows client systems, you must install the ColorBurst RIP

server software on a Macintosh.

•Connect the printer via USB or Ethernet to a single computer set up as

the ColorBurst RIP server and client.

ColorBurst RIP Features

•Pantone®and SWOP®certified for highly accurate color printing

•Full PostScript support including PostScript Language level 1, 2, and 3

support for PS, EPS, TIFF, JPEG, and PDF files

•Hot folder that can be accessed locally or over a network for easy

printing of supported file types

Introduction

Note: If you are using

Windows,®you must be

running Windows XP or

2000; other versions of

Windows are not

supported.

Tip: The recommended

configuration is to

connect the Stylus Pro

4000 via USB to a

Mac OS®X system set

up as the dedicated

server with the

ColorBurst RIP. Then

connect the Mac OS X

system to the network.

Mac®or Windows clients

may print to the RIP

server. This configuration

minimizes network

traffic.

Note: The Client PPD

does not need to be

installed on the

ColorBurst RIP server.

6|Introduction

•Job manager (Mac OS X only) for drag-and-drop printing directly into

the RIP list. Jobs can be reordered, deleted, or placed on hold to be

processed later

•Pre-linearized environments to ensure accurate profiles from the start,

as well as the option to relinearize later with a spectrophotometer, if

necessary

ColorBurst.book Page 6 Thursday, September 9, 2004 12:41 PM

You can install and set up the ColorBurst RIP server software on a

Macintosh OS X system or a computer running Windows XP or 2000. See

the appropriate sections:

•“Installing the ColorBurst Server Software for Macintosh OS X” below

•“Setting Up the ColorBurst RIP Server for Macintosh OS X” on page 8

•“Installing the ColorBurst RIP Server Software for Windows” on

page 15

•“Setting Up the ColorBurst RIP Server for Windows” on page 17

Installing the ColorBurst Server Software for

Macintosh OS X

Before you begin, make sure you have:

•Set up the Epson Stylus Pro 4000 and installed the standard Epson

printer driver on the computer you intend to use as your ColorBurst

RIP server (see your Epson®printer documentation for instructions)

•Connected the printer to the server using the USB interface

(recommended method) or connected the printer to an Ethernet

network and assigned it an IP address (see the documentation that came

with the included network card)

•Closed all open programs and turned off any virus protection programs

Follow these steps to install the server software:

1. Insert the ColorBurst RIP CD-ROM in your CD-ROM or DVD drive.

2. Double-click the CD-ROM icon, then double-click the

ColorBurst RIP Installer icon.

3. When prompted, enter your Mac OS X Admin password and click OK.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to install ColorBurst.

5. When installation is complete, go to the next section to set up the

ColorBurst RIP Server.

Setting Up the ColorBurst RIP Server for

Macintosh OS X

Before you can print with the ColorBurst RIP, you have to set it up so it can

receive print jobs and has the correct printer and environment settings.

Starting the RIP Server and Choosing Your Printer

1. To start the RIP server, double-click the ColorBurst RIP for Epson

icon on your desktop.

Or double-click the ColorBurst RIP icon in the

Applications > ColorBurst RIP for Epson folder.

2. When you see the registration window, fill out the information and click

OK to register your software. The serial number is printed on the front

of your ColorBurst RIP CD-ROM.

The registration is sent over the Internet to ColorBurst. If it isn’t sent,

the dialog box will reappear each time you start the RIP.

Note: If you plan to share

the printer with Windows

clients over a network,

you need to make sure

your Macintosh has a

static (manual setting)

IP address that won’t

change. You can change

this setting in the System

Preferences > Network

settings. See your Mac

Help for more

information.

3. When you see this message, click OK.

4. When you see this message, click OK.

5. Type a name for the printer in the Printer Name box. It can be any

name you want. This name is used only within the RIP/server interface

and is not the name that will be used on the network. (See “Setting the

Print Server Name” on page 13 to change the RIP name used on the

network.)

6. Choose USB or Ethernet as the Printer Connection setting.

7. Choose Stylus Pro 4000 from the Which Printer list that appears, if

necessary.

If you see the message “There are no printers connected to this

computer using USB,” check your USB connection and make sure the

printer is set up and turned on as described on your Stylus Pro 4000

Start Here sheet.

8. When you see this message, click OK.

9. When you see this screen, enter your Mac OS X Admin password, then

click OK.

ColorBurst opens and is now set up with the default environment. To enable

the RIP to receive and process print jobs and set up the proper environment

for your needs, see the next section.

Choosing an Environment and Printer Settings

The ColorBurst workflow is designed to be efficient for graphic design as

well as prepress proofing. Several pre-set environments with defined paper

type and resolution settings are included for your Stylus Pro 4000 printer.

Choose an environment for the paper type that is loaded in the printer and

the resolution you prefer for printing. You need to change the environment

each time you load a different type of paper. Also check the printer settings

and adjust them, if necessary. Once the environment and settings are set up,

clients can send print jobs without having to constantly adjust printer and

driver settings.
