x.826 build (20th Feb. 2002)

  • printing through hot folder of PDFs with rotated fields in AcroForms fixed

x.823 build (30th Jan. 2002)

  • in order to use the print server started as service on Windows NT 4.0 Server with user account you had to set the registry DWORD value "IGSY" at "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\cyan\Opium4\ServerKernel" to "1". Now this patch is automated.

x.822 build (21st Dec. 2001)

  • NEW FEATURE: print server can now insert PDFs into jobs. PDFs or their FPO (proxy/sample) images, placed into e.g. Quark documents and omitted while printing, can now be inserted by the print server into the jobs [only: cyanPrintIP Easy OPI]

  • support of encrypted PDFs added

  • problem with TCP/IP printing to certain print servers solved

  • support of  true type fonts in PDFs added

  • the OPI option "Replace Links" "without embedded hi-res data" now works correctly for OPI 2 images in PDF jobs: the quality (i.e. resolution) of OPI images embedded in PDFs is now recognized correctly [only: cyanPrintIP Easy OPI]

x.821 build (10th Dec. 2001)

  • for PDF printing: selection of printer input slot added to print queue settings

  • the print server now creates unique print file names for each printed job. This solves a problem when printing several pages to hotfolders of BestColor.

x.820 build (31st Nov. 2001) [only: cyanPrintIP Easy OPI]

  • support for nested TIFF samples added. You can now omit TIFF samples in Quark and the OPI server inserts the correct Hi-Res image file.

x.819 build (26th Nov. 2001)

  • printing problems with PDF 1.3 files solved

  • added Windows XP support

  • manuals updated, appended and improved

  • NEW FEATURE: added print-to-remote-folders support

x.818 build (14th Nov. 2001) [only: cyanPrintIP Easy OPI]

  • "Create Proof" option has been improved. Downsampling when doing proof printing with a lower resolution now works correctly: only the image data in the actually required resolution is inserted into the jobs and sent to the printer. When calculating the required image data resolution, the image scaling factor of job is considered in correctly.

x.814 build (2nd Oct. 2001)

  • NEW FEATURE: PDF files, which are received as files through hot folders, can now be printed

x.813 build (3rd Sep. 2001)

  • corrected some messages written to the Windows event log

  • added programming API to server, so that 3rd party software developer can use printing functionalities of the product

x.812 build (31st Aug. 2001)

  • fixed a problem when in rare cases jobs larger than 500 MB are not printed

x.811 build (30th Aug. 2001)

  • fixed a problem with set cropmark, mirror, etc. in the print queue properties. Before, it could happen that if set cropmarks, mirror, etc. is enabled in the print queue properties, the job is not accepted by the printer

  • optimized memory usage when printing. Now much less memory is used when printing

  • fixed a problem when AppleTalk (PAP) queries are not correctly answered for the MacOS9 Chooser

x.810 build (7th July 2001)

  • the installer and the installation folder now include the file "build#.txt", which names the current build number of the product

  • if the cyanPrintIP Server is started on a machine with NT4 as a service, which logs on as Administrator (or another user account), then an NT security function causes our software not to start. This problem does not occur on Windows 2000 and looks like an NT bug, which is triggered by our software. If you want that the cyanPrintIP Server service logs on with a user account, you have to do the following: Set the registry DWORD value "IGSY" at "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\cyan\cyanPrintIP\ServerKernel" to "1". Setting this registry value to 1 causes the cyanPrintIP Server to deactivate the security feature of its user interface and therefore it will not call the NT security function at service startup
      

x.808 build (24th Oct. 2000)

  • new option: printing to folders allows writing the print file to a temp folder first

  • when printing to folders, the original print job file name will be retained

  • the online help file is now displayed in the correct latin character set

x.801 build (29th June 2000):

  • fix: Windows 2000 German problem with sharing queues as Windows printers. On Windows 2k German machines, you saw the following error message if you tried to share a queue as a Windows printer: "Hinzufügen von Windows Drucker fehlgeschlagen. Windows Druckername "Optra N PS". Anschluß "CxPrinterQueue1:", Treiber "Lexmark Optra N PS_OPT", Freigabename "Optra N PS". Das Handle ist ungültig.".

    IMPORTANT:
    if you install the build x.801 on a German Win2k machine and you saw the above message before, then you first have to do the following steps (i.e. removing 1 wrong driver file):

    1. stop the Windows print spooler service ("Dienst"), winspool.exe, named "Druckwarteschlange" (ie "Print Spooler"), in the "Services" ("Dienste") control panel
    2. delete the file "c:\WINNT\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\ps5ui.dll" and "c:\WINNT\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3\ps5ui.dll". Please note that "c:\WINNT" is the default Win2k installation path, but this path might be different on your computer. Please replace "c:\WINNT" with the path of your Win2k installation folder
    3. restart the Windows spooler service in the Services control panel
    4. run Setup.exe of cyanPrintIP

x.800 build:  

  • fix: in case cyanPrintIP installs the Windows PostScript drivers the first time on a system, it could happen that it fails to create 1 Windows printer - a second try to install this Windows printer always succeeded

x.799 build:  

  • fix: failures in Japanese resources could cause the cyanPrintIP administration program to crash: fixed an uninstall problem

x.798 build:  

  • fix: it could happen that parts of the registry could have too restrictive permissions - normal users couldn't access those parts: hide printer option in AppleTalk printer destination changed in that way that it is more general
