Create a map view

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.

Creating maps

With MarkVision's Map task, you can create a graphical representation that illustrates the distribution of your devices.

Creating a map

The type of map you create depends on the structure of your organization. If your organization has one location with just a few printers, your map could be a simple line drawing or a scanned plan of your building with icons marking the printer locations. If, however, you are responsible for many printers in various geographies, you might create maps that correspond with the hierarchy of your printer folders. For example, you could create a folder for the state where a group of printers are located. Within that folder, you might create a sub folder for the city. Additional subfolders could contain printers grouped by the building or floor number. Create a corresponding map for each folder.

Create maps using any graphics application that saves in JPEG or GIF format. You can create an original image or develop your graphic using a scanned image like an area map or building plan. Save the image in JPEG or GIF format. You can then select the graphic from the Map task in MarkVision.

Using a map

1Select Map from the All Tasks menu, or select a folder and click View Æ Map.

2Select a folder.

3Click the Map icon in the lower part of the window. Select the map you want to use, or click Browse to find the graphic you want to use.

4Arrange the device icons on the map image to represent its location in your organization, and then click Apply.

Note: A yellow border around a device icon indicates that the device is in a warning state; a red border indicates an error state.
