MarkVision gives you several ways to see all the printers available to you at a glance.
Use the Folder Configuration task to create custom folders to organize your printers. If your printers are on a small network, you may only need one folder. However, if your printers are distributed across a large network, you can create multiple folders to organize them.
For example, if your printers are concentrated on a small network within a single building, you could create folders for each floor or type of printer. For larger printer networks, you could create a folder hierarchy that includes subfolders identifying printers listed by geographical location or by subnet.
Apply filter criteria to your folders to automatically populate folder contents or to find a specific printer. For example, create a folder named Color, and then select the appropriate filter criteria to show only color printers. MarkVision applies the filter and adds only color printers to that folder. The same printer can appear in more than one folder depending on the filters you set. For example, a color printer with a duplex unit would appear in both the Color folder and the Duplex folder. For more information on creating folders and using filters, see Organizing devices into groups and Finding the devices you want.
You can use the Map task to create a graphical representation that illustrates the distribution of your printers by placing a printer icon on a map background relative to your organization. The printer status determines the border color of the icon that is displayed. A printer icon with a yellow border is in a warning state; a printer icon with a red border is in an error state. For more information on using the map feature, see Creating maps.
