Lexmark 11 User Manual

In some situations you may want to discover some devices without creating a profile. In these 
situations you can use the 

 task to discover individual or small groups of devices. 

Select 

 from the All Tasks menu, or select

 on the MVP Home screen.

 want to 

include in the discovery.

IPX management support is only available for a MarkVision Server running on a Windows NT, 
Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows 2003 Server workstation. UNIX Clients can connect to a 
Windows-based MarkVision Server to manage printers with the IPX protocol. 

IPX protocol support must be installed on the Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, or 
Windows 2003 Server workstation. If IPX protocol support is not installed, the IPX option is disabled. 
The NetWare protocol for the supported print server must be active to be discovered. 

Not all devices are available through IPX support. 

The easiest way to configure the print server for NetWare jobs in non-NDPS and non-NEPS 
environments is to use the Network Printer Utility for NetWare (Interwin). The Network Printer Utility 
(Interwin) automatically creates all the necessary NetWare objects (print queue objects, print server 
objects, and printer objects). 

The time MarkVision Professional takes to discover devices varies, depending on the scope of the 
discovery. A device discovery spanning multiple subnets (133.122.0.0) requires more time than a 
device discovery spanning a single subnet (133.122.123.0).
