Printing Support
The MarkNet N7002e print server offers network printing support for laser, inkjet, and dot-matrix products.

Network Communications Security
SSL protocol secures connections to the device's embedded web server to protect configuration and device status messages. SNMPv3 supports encrypted and authenticated management traffic protecting remote configuration and device status messages. IPSec can be used with both TCP/IP IPv4 and IPv6 networks and provides encryption and authentication of communications at the network layer.

Works with an Evolving Network
MarkNet N7000 series print servers support IPv6, the next generation of TCP/IP. This feature allows workgroups to use existing printers with next generation networking standards. MarkNet N7002e offers benefits to workgroups with established networks by supporting legacy protocols such as TCP/IP (IPv4), IPX/SPX and AppleTalk .

Embedded Web Server
Remotely administer device settings through a web browser using the Embedded Web Server. With HTTPs support, administrators can modify print server settings, monitor printer status and update settings on select Lexmark printers over a secure channel.

Secure Internet Printing
With IPP 1.1, MarkNet N7000 Series print servers allow users to send encrypted print jobs over the Internet.

ThinPrint Support
Print over a limited bandwidth network with minimal impact to response time for use in Citrix MetaFrame and Microsoft Windows Terminal Services Environments. Features include 1) Enable and disable ThinPrint, 2) Change ThinPrint IP port, 3) Change block size and 4) Control bandwidth.
