Markvision Enterprise FAQ

Why can I not choose multiple printers in the supported models list when creating a configuration?

Configuration settings and commands differ between printer models.

Can other users access my saved searches?

Yes. All users can access saved searches.

Where can I find the log files?

You can find the installation log files in the hidden directory of the user installing MVE. For example, C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\mveLexmark-install.log.

You can find the *.log application log files in the installation_dir\Lexmark\Markvision Enterprise\tomcat\logs folder, where installation_dir is the installation folder of MVE.

What is the difference between host name and reverse DNS lookup?

A host name is a unique name assigned to a printer on a network. Each host name corresponds to an IP address. Reverse DNS lookup is used to determine the designated host name and domain name of a given IP address.

Where can I find reverse DNS lookup in MVE?

Reverse DNS lookup can be found in the general settings. For more information, see Configuring general settings.

How do I manually add rules to the Windows firewall?

Run the command prompt as an administrator, and then type the following:

  • firewall add allowedprogram "installation_dir/Lexmark/Markvision Enterprise/tomcat/bin/tomcat9.exe" "Markvision Enterprise Tomcat"
  • firewall add portopening UDP 9187 "Markvision Enterprise NPA UDP"
  • firewall add portopening UDP 6100 "Markvision Enterprise LST UDP"

Where installation_dir is the installation folder of MVE.

    <Connector port="443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" 
    sslImplementationName="org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSEImplementation" 
    SSLEnabled="true" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" 
    compression="on" compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,
    text/javascript,application/javascript,application/json" maxThreads="150" 
    maxHttpHeaderSize="16384" minSpareThreads="25" enableLookups="false" 
    acceptCount="100" connectionTimeout="120000" disableUploadTimeout="true" 
    URIEncoding="UTF-8" server="Apache" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1,TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2" 
    sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="C:/Program Files/Lexmark/Markvision Enterprise/
    ../mve_truststore.p12" keystorePass="markvision" keyAlias="mve" keyPass="markvision" 
    keystoreType="PKCS12" ciphers="TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,
