How do I discover printers?

Device Discovery task
The Device Discovery task can be selected from either the All Tasks list or by clicking Actions
Device Discovery from the menus.
1
Select to search by:
• TCP/IP Address, Subnet or Hostname
• TCP/IP Address Range
• IPX Address
2
Enter the address information.
3
Click Include to add it to your search list.
4
Click Full Discovery.
You can use a "0" (zero) or asterisk (*) as a wildcard character to perform a device discovery based
on a network subnet. To stop a device discovery once it has started, click Stop Discovery.
For a more in-depth look at discovering devices, see
Quick Find task
The Quick Find task is capable of initially discovering devices and filtering a device search for
previously discovered devices.
While searching by TCP/IP address, multiple devices can be discovered using a wildcard variable
when typing in the criteria for the TCP/IP address. You can use a zero (0) or asterisk (*) as a wildcard
character when performing a Quick Find based on a network subnet. For example, in order to find all
the printers on the 122 subnet, the user would type in the address value 138.188.122.0. This would
find devices with IP addresses of 138.188.122.2, 138.188.122.3, 138.188.122.4, and so on.
Note: If you enter a TCP/IP address, MarkVision Professional first checks the list of
devices already discovered. If the address is not in the list, MarkVision Professional
initiates a device discovery to find it.
Note: IPX discoveries can only be performed using the Device Discovery task.
