If the C70 has the Postscript kit (probably not if you paid for the Fiery) you could skip the Fiery, use the Mac PPD for the integrated controller, and print using HP Jet Direct port (put :9200) after the IP address when you create it, and the print will go straight to the copier and you will have full ability of the C70, but nothing Fiery specific, and the job will not show in CWS. There really is no good answer sadly, Even Apple dropped support entirely for the OS in 2009. Modify anything needed via CWS before print. Setup any driver for any fiery that you can source for 10.4 and print to the hold queue on the Fiery. Get a Fiery Express driver installed from EFI.com and hope to get basic functionality to work (duplex, stock selection)Ģ.

Supported way = Save as pdf and import into CWS and set your properties there.ġ. Especially if this 10.4 is Power PC, not intel, nobody has made drivers or software for that platform in a long time. You will never find a driver that will work fully.
If you use Generic PS it may work, and if it doesn't, will either print PS code (a lot of pages of gibberish) or display a fault (I can't for the life of me remember what the fault code is) So if the Fiery is on 192.168.1.100, you can bypass it to get to the printer by simply using HP Jet Direct to 192.168.1.100:9200 Mac doesn't show the port number, but you can add it in the address. Mac's just name it differently, In Windows it is called RAW and on a Mac, it is HP Jet Direct. based on macOS.

This isn't a consideration in most devices, but why add features that are just going to be bypassed by the Fiery? It saves the company (Xerox) money, and possibly the customer (not paying for a printer that has features they are not going to use) From Apples website: Mac OS X 10.4 installs printer drivers and PostScript Printer Description files (PPDs) for many printers. Mac OS X Server is a discontinued series of Unix-like server operating systems developed by Apple Inc. It can be left with less hardware, less software and less licensing cost. It is the primary operating system for Apples Mac computers. The C70 is most likely sold with a Fiery, so Xerox simply doesn't by default put a Postscript interpreter in the C70, they make it a paid option, for multiple reasons. macOS (/ m æ k o s / previously OS X and originally Mac OS X) is an operating system developed and marketed by Apple Inc. But if you use the Fiery driver it will definitely fail, because the copier/printer does not understand the language of the EFI Fiery.
So on a Windows PC you can install with the port set to RAW and simply leave the port as 9100 (Default port for RAW) and it goes to the Fiery, but if you want to print to the copier and want no trace of the job to ever see the Fiery, you can use 9200. It isn't widely known and isn't an option on all devices.ĮFi allows prints to bypass the Fiery on port 9200.
