Configuring the application
Configuring the application
This guide assumes that the Lexmark Accessibility Solution is already present on at least one multi-function printer
(MFP) on the network. Administrators should use this guide to set up the browser‑based portion of the application.
Setting up user access
Creating a browser shortcut to the Lexmark Accessibility Solution
1
Open the user's default Web browser.
2
From the Web browser, paste the following URL into the address field:
http://127.0.0.1/cgi‑bin/direct/printer/prtapp/apps/LexmarkAccessibilitySolut
ion
3
Replace the IP address in the above URL with the IP address or DNS name of an MFP running the Lexmark Accessibility
Solution.
4
Press Enter.
The home page of the Lexmark Accessibility Solution will open.
5
From the home page of the Lexmark Accessibility Solution, create a bookmark or favorite—depending on the user's
Web browser—and then give it a descriptive name (such as Lexmark X651, or Bob's Printer). That way,
the user can easily navigate back to the MFP running the solution later.
Notes:
•
Repeat these steps as necessary for any other MFPs running the Lexmark Accessibility Solution.
•
The Lexmark Accessibility Solution is not designed to be launched from within the Application section of the
Embedded Web Server for the MFP.

not already exist.

3
From the Create Shortcut dialog, click Browse.
4
