Lexmark 45n Guida Utente

Chapter 2: Using the Printer Utilities 

Getting Started

Your printer is capable of intelligent communication with your 
computer and the network. Not only can it receive information 
from software applications, but it can also send back messages 
about the work it’s doing and what it needs to complete the task.

This intelligent bidirectional communication standard, Network 
Printing Alliance Protocol (NPAP) 1.0, is part of the printer design. 
The utilities and drivers that are shipped with the printer take 
advantage of this advanced communication capability.

The MarkVision graphical user interface provides ongoing status 
for Lexmark printers connected locally or attached directly to the 
network by way of an optional network adapter. The status 
reported includes all messages appearing on the operator panel 
display if you are administrating the remote operator panel, as 
well as information about options installed on the printer and 
printer default settings. Workgroup administrators or key 
operators can monitor only those printers they are responsible for 
by using a helpful list of print queues that can be listed through 
MarkVision.

When minimized on your screen, the MarkVision icon flashes to let 
you know there is a problem with a printer. You can maximize the 
window to see a graphic of the printer and detailed information 
about the problem.

MarkVision can save you a lot of time setting up a network of 
Lexmark printers. The Quick Setup function lets you create a 
printer configuration file at your workstation, save the printer 
settings in the file, and then send the settings to other printers on 
the network.
