Simple to set up - Management is simplified by network settings that can be established either automatically or remotely - configure using MarkVision, command line or the GUI utilities.

Easily upgradeable - The firmware resides in flash memory which allows upgrades via software download. Firmware upgrades are flashable and can simultaneously address multiple devices.

An internal print server to connect to a 100BaseFX fiber optic network using a ST connector.

For use with the Lexmark T630, T632 and T634 and C752 printers.

A complete technical evaluation should be conducted by each prospective customer to determine if this option is applicable to their network environment.


Network Protocol Support

MarkNet print servers and the standard Ethernet connection support these protocols: TCP/IP, Novell (IPX/SPX including NetWare Directory Services), AppleTalk™ and LexLink (DLC/LLC). All protocols can be active simultaneously. Simultaneous protocol support allows you to print from different systems without reconfiguring the print server.
TCP/IP Standard Set of Application Services

These application services are supported: DHCP, WINS, SNMP (industry standard printer MIB), http, lpr/lpd, ftp, tftp, ping, finger, telnet, bootp and rarp. In addition, these TCP/IP protocols are also supported IPP: Internet Printing Protocol, SLP: Service Location Protocol, NTP: Network Timing Protocol. Service Locator Protocol (SLP) provides key services to your network applications allowing the applications to find the print server in an efficient manner. Network Time Protocol (NTP) ensures that all devices on the network are synchronized with your centralized time server.

Embedded Web Page
Supports an embedded Web page with Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later and Netscape Navigator 6.0 or later for Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows 2000 or Windows NT. The embedded web page allows administrators to access printer features using a web browser. Using a web browser, it is easy to monitor printer status and change default settings.

Compatibility
Compatible with popular operating systems including Novell NetWare, Microsoft Windows (95, 98, Me, NT, 2000 and XP) as well as UNIX, Linux and Apple Mac OS.

DDNS and mDNS Support
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a networking protocol used to translate a domain name (host name) to an IP address with dynamic database queries. Multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) provides DNS for a single zone and allows for name resolution in a local zone when a DNS server is not available.

FTP Capable
Supports a built-in FTP server capable of printing TXT and PDF documents without opening a compatible application. Simply open an FTP session and PUT your files directly to the printer. FTP Services are available from any computing device on the network sporting an FTP client.

Security
Secure your printing device on the network. Limit access to certain devices through a built-in Restricted Server List. Make users authenticate by enabling password protection. Move the device out of the ‘public’ domain by changing the SNMP community name. Disable chatty protocols and vulnerable services by using the Embedded Web Server.
