Limitations

Print Roaming with multiple servers within WAN (Far-roaming mode)

Printing jobs over far roaming is currently not available using a new client in combination with Job Service.

Offline accounting - parsing of duplex and copy count information works only for PCL and PCL 6 jobs

Due to the limitation in the current version of mako-parser library, only PCL and PCL 6 (PCL XL) jobs have correctly parsed information regarding duplex and number of copies. Other formats return the default value of duplex, 1 copy.

Manual print location selection

Due to limited usage of manual print location selection, it is not fully compatible when combined with "SiteServerSources" set to "jobservice". In this case, both main locations ("jobservices") and their obtained locations in their cluster are combined together in the dropdown for the user to choose from. Also, when a different main location ("jobservice") is selected, its cluster locations are not immediately obtained, and the Spooler service needs to be restarted first. Also, when the location is changed, you might need to log in again.

YSoft Client v3 network-level load balancing, network-level failover

  • Load balancer must send all requests from the client to the same job service, and infinite affinity must be set for the load balancer

  • Scenarios that are not supported for YSoft Client V3 + load balancer:

    • Spool cleaning is not working if the client disconnects, the job service receives a delete request from SPOC, and then the client connects to a different job service.

    • If user notifications are set in Rule-Based Engine, they will not be displayed on the user workstation.

    • Auto update of YSoft Client v3.
