Enhanced password encryption for FTP and WebDAV

The security of YSoft SafeQ communications with external systems has been improved. In our previous Build, (Build 37), enhanced password encryption was introduced for SQL database passwords, LDAP passwords and SMTP passwords.

In Build 38, the security of passwords for FTP and WebDAV file transfer has been improved. The password for FTP and WebDAV file transfer, which is stored in the database, can be additionally protected with an enhanced password protection mechanism.

The Setup and Configuration of the Enhanced Password Protection chapter in the YSoft SafeQ 6 Administrative Guide assists administrators with enabling the enhanced encryption. The Enhanced Password Protection chapter describes password protection methods used by YSoft SafeQ 6.

Printing

Print jobs which were cancelled by the user logging out are now correctly re-queued for printing again.

Terminals, User Interfaces

Embedded Terminal for Ricoh no longer displays incompatible jobs when the property "showIncompatibleJob" is disabled.

Print jobs printed from USB by a public user are now being accounted for again on Konica Minolta bizhub 4050.

The secure transfer of user credentials from FujiXerox devices has been improved. User credentials are always sent to the server in encrypted form now.

It is now possible to install the Embedded Terminal for Samsung again. The error was caused by an expired certificate used to sign a package deployed to Samsung devices. It is now fixed, a new certificate has been used.

In customer environments where quotas were used, users were not able to log in to Embedded Terminal for FujiXerox. The issue was occurring during a reservation made during login. This has been fixed and users can once again log into Embedded Terminal for FujiXerox with quotas.

After a specific set of steps on an embedded terminal, it could happen that the scan button redirected the user to a screen containing a list of workflows instead of initiating scanning. This has been fixed.

Reporting

Administrators can once again see Job size in Advanced Job Information in the Management Interface.

Administrators can now correctly export Management reports to PDF.

Print jobs with more than 9 Chinese characters in the job name printed on Embedded Terminal for Sharp are being accounted for without any issues again.

Automated Scan Workflows

Some Konica Minolta A4 devices have been producing scanned files in a landscape orientation even though the user scanned in a portrait orientation. It has been fixed and all Konica Minolta A4 devices now consistently produce scanned files in portrait orientation as expected.

The behavior of a user input list with non-existing default values is now consistent on both Embedded Terminals for Konica Minolta (Native and Web-Based terminal). The specified default value is not displayed on the embedded terminal when it is not available in the source .csv or .xml file.

Installation and Administration

It is once again possible to upload software packages in the Management Interface in Devices → Hardware.

In rare cases when a customer had many (more than 200) LD devices communicating with one Spooler Controller, some of the LD devices were removed. This has been fixed and LD devices are no longer removed.

Updating of YSoft SafeQ 6 to a higher version of YSoft SafeQ 6 could end with an error message when the customer upgraded to YSoft SafeQ 6 from YSoft SafeQ 5 before and the YSoft SafeQ 5 database was no longer present. This has been fixed and a YSoft SafeQ 6 update will finish without an error message.

Deleting billing codes on YSoft SafeQ 6 installations with Microsoft SQL database no longer returns an error message and works as expected by administrators.

Documentation for YSoft SafeQ FlexiSpooler has been improved. The page with YSoft SafeQ FlexiSpooler Security considerations will help administrators better understand and consider security aspects of FlexiSpooler configuration.

The Cashdesk operator can now identify a new user via card when the configuration of the property, "onDemandPaymentAccountCreation", is enabled.

Single sign-on to the End User Interface with the Windows Integrated Authentication method is now working.

CLI device replicator now correctly recognizes Terminal Professional 3.5 and/or Terminal Ultralight, so these types of terminals can now be replicated without issues into YSoft SafeQ 6.

In rare cases after updating of YSoft SafeQ 6 to higher build, it could happen that administrators are not able to select any online accounting driver. This is now fixed.

A new tooltip with helpful information for administrators about Kiosk mode was added in the Management Interface based on customer feedback. Kiosk mode can be enabled when an Administrator is adding a new Konica Minolta device in the Management Interface.

Security of the Management Interface has been improved. Importing scan workflows through XML is no longer vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attacks.

The security of installing YSoft SafeQ 6 with an external PostgreSQL database has been improved. The checkbox, "Server requires SSL", which is part of installation setup screen, is now fully functional and full certificate validation is being used.

The security of YSoft SafeQ 6 has been improved. It is now possible to configure YSoft SafeQ 6 JMX ports to be open only for localhost. Before this change, the port was open on all interfaces and administrators needed to use a firewall.

YSoft be3D eDee 3D Print Management Solution

The terminology concerning printer components (print pad, print bed, print pad holder) has been unified across YSoft be3D eDee application and all documents (user guide, admin guide, service guide, modification kit, etc.)

In rare cases, the eDee printer allowed other users to start a new print job while the previous job was still in printing mode. This has been fixed and it will not happen anymore.

Product extensions (formerly known as customizations)

Note: Customers who use YSoft SafeQ extensions should contact their Y Soft RSM or Customer Support Services for compatibility verification with the new Build. We recommend testing all extensions before applying a Build update into a production environment.
