Configuring printer alerts

You can configure the printer several ways to let you know when it requires attention.
Using the Setup Menu
Menu item Function
Alarm Control Lets you establish whether the
printer sounds an alarm when it
requires operator intervention.
Toner Alarm Lets you choose how the printer
responds when toner is low.
* If multiple attendance conditions are pending, the alarm only sounds when the first message is displayed. No
additional alarms sound as subsequent attendance conditions arise.
Selecting Auto Continue
printer waits after displaying a message before it resumes printing.
Using MarkVision Professional
MarkVision™ Professional, Lexmark's network printer management utility, indicates when it is time to
replace supplies and points out actual or potential problems. When a printer needs attention, it alerts the
network administrator with a detailed graphic of the printer showing the cause for the alert (for example, an
empty paper tray). For more information about MarkVision Professional, refer to the drivers CD that
shipped with your printer.
Using MarkVision Messenger
MarkVision Messenger lets you create Actions that execute specific commands whenever messages like
Tray x Missing or 88 Toner Low appear on the display. For example, you can create an Action that
sends an e-mail to the administrator when the printer runs out of paper.
Actions can be set up to occur automatically, as well as conditionally or repeatedly. For more information
about MarkVision Messenger, refer to the drivers CD that shipped with your printer.
