Printing

When a user changes the finishing options of a print job on YSoft Terminal Pro 4, an improved message informs the user about the compatibility of the MFD and the finishing options.

The "secure" queue name in the print job ticket is now propagated well when the legacy YSoft SafeQ 5 client is used with YSoft SafeQ 6.

When parsing a print job’s username from the PJL header and no username is found, the username is taken from the LPR protocol and no new user with an empty username is created.

Any certificate’s validation errors in FlexiSpooler are now logged for quicker support.

Terminals

Under some circumstances, USB card readers connected to YSoft Terminal Pro 4 could stop working. It has been fixed.

Embedded Terminals for Konica Minolta, Develop and Olivetti devices now support new USB card readers (e.g. AU201S). When the property “usb-card-reader-conversion” is enabled and the conversion returns an invalid output, the original value is used for the user authentication

Wrong text {product.name} no longer appears on the Embedded Terminal for Konica Minolta, Develop and Olivetti devices when a language other than English is used

Administrators can once again successfully log into the The YSoft SafeQ 6 Embedded Terminal Migration Tool.

Embedded Terminal for Epson has been improved:

• Translation of some submenus to other non-English languages on Embedded Terminal for Epson has been fixed.

• Speed of the print job listing has been increased.

• Menu button is accessible even when only one print job is listed.

Scan Workflows

The export and import of scan workflows in the management interface has been fixed. An undefined item has been corrected in the exported XML files.

Billing codes are now propagated into %billingCode% scan variables when scanning with Embedded Terminal for Ricoh.

Installation and Administration

YSoft SafeQ 6 server installers (the bundled ones) have been improved. They can be used for YSoft SafeQ installation with clustered Microsoft SQL databases and the “Always On Availability Groups” database feature is supported. See the documentation for detailed setup instructions.

Deletion of a device with an assigned hardware terminal in management interface no longer causes any issues when the same hardware terminal is assigned to a new device.

The CLI user replication tool now interprets the RMAP keyword well and doesn’t delete a previous manual role mapping.

The CLI user replication tool no longer crashes with a blank source file.

The YSoft Payment System’s failover behavior has been improved in a cluster environment where SQL cluster components are running in different subnets. The new Microsoft JDBC Driver v. 6.2.2. for SQL database has been implemented.

Security

The management interface login page no longer makes the IP addresses of the network adapters visible in the html source when there are more adapters on the server.
