Configuring printer alerts
You can configure the printer several ways to let you know when it requires attention.
Using the Setup Menu
Selecting
Auto Continue may affect how the printer alerts execute. This setting defines how long the printer waits after
displaying a message before it resumes printing.
Using MarkVision Professional
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 Software and Documentation CD that shipped with your printer.
