Generic File Download - Lexmark MarkVision Professional User Manual

• Install New
When you click Install New, a dialog box appears that lets you select a plug-in from the
directory to be installed on the server. Once a plug-in file has been selected, a confirmation
screen appears, containing more specific information about the plug-in(s) that you have
selected, and provides you with the option to proceed with installation. The successful
installation of a plug-in is then announced to all clients connected to the server through the
MVP message window located at the bottom of the MVP Home screen.
After a plug-in has been installed on the server, the MVP client receives information on the plug-in
versions that have been installed and details on which plug-ins contain downloadable client
components. If new client components are available, the client determines if the server and itself are
compatible and then automatically downloads the client component of any plug-ins that it does not
already have.
Note: If the client and server are not compatible because the client contains a component
that the server does not have, a warning message is issued and any incompatible
client components are removed.
