The file you use with FTP can
be in PCL or PostScript
emulations, PDF, HTML or
any other language the printer
understands. If the file prints,
this confirms the TCP/IP
protocol is working properly in
the MarkNet print server.
Windows NT Server 4.0
1
Make sure you are using TCP/IP for communications between the
Windows server and the MarkNet print server.
2
Make sure TCP/IP is turned on (activated) in the print server. To find out,
print a network setup page and look in the paragraph under TCP/IP.
3
Verify that TCP/IP is installed properly on the Windows server. (Hint:
Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network, Protocols).
4
Issue a ping command to the print server.
ping 192.168.236.24
5
Establish an FTP session with the print server.
ftp 192.168.236.24
6
Using the FTP put command, print a file.
put mytest.ps
7
See if the network printer shows up in MarkVision.
•
If it doesn't, the print server may have downlevel firmware.
•
If it does but you still cannot print, try removing and then re-
adding the Lexmark Network Port on the printer object.
8
Reset both the print server and the printer.
9
If possible, shut down Windows NT Server and restart the server. There
could be a spooler problem that requires a restart.
10
Uninstall, and then reinstall MarkVision. During the reinstallation, select
only the network protocols you actually use (for example, TCP/IP). This
also helps MarkVision run faster.
11
Try printing again.
