Configuring Applications Using Markvision Professional (Mvp); Installing Solution Descriptors On The Markvision Server - Lexmark Color Laser Administrator's Manual

Configuring applications using MarkVision Professional (MVP)

TM
Use MarkVision Professional (MVP) to configure multiple printers at one time.
Note: MVP can only be used for printers that support the Embedded Solutions Framework (eSF) 1.2 and 2.0. For more
information, see "Checking which version of the Embedded Solutions Framework is installed on a printer" on
page 16.

Installing solution descriptors on the MarkVision Server

Solution descriptors are XML files that are installed on the MarkVision Server. They describe to MVP how to configure
an embedded solution, providing information about supported settings such as types, descriptions, ranges, defaults,
and internationalization values and strings. Each embedded application includes a solution descriptor, which must be
installed before the application can be configured.
Use one of the following methods to install a solution descriptor on the MarkVision Server:
Method one
1
From the MarkVision Professional Home screen, select Embedded Solutions - Solutions Management from the All
Tasks list.
2
Use the Quick Find or Folders tabs to select a device.
Note: When a device managed by MVP is not supported by a specific task, its name will appear with a black line
through it in the Quick Find or Folders tabs. Password-protected network devices are displayed in red. Enter the
device password to gain access to the device.
3
Select the application from the list.

Click Fetch Descriptor(s). This will read the solution descriptor from the device if this method is supported by the
device. If it is not, a dialog will open so that you can browse to the file to be installed.
