LEXMARK DOWNTIME REPORTS
Readme for version 5.0.24


1. OVERVIEW

   This Readme file pertains to the current release of the LEXMARK DOWNTIME
   REPORTS application.

   Lexmark Downtime Reports is an embedded solution that can be installed on
   printers that support the Lexmark Embedded Solutions Framework (eSF) v6.x. 
   The application retrieves files from a network share or FTP destination, 
   as well as prints jobs coming in through port 9444 and stores them in the 
   printer hard disk. The application updates the files on the printer at a 
   configurable rate to ensure the files are up-to-date. This feature lets 
   users select and print the latest versions of these files without network 
   access.

4. LIMITATIONS AND COMPATIBILITY OF THE RELEASE
