Improvements
- Optimized printer status monitoring reduces the amount of traffic required to reflect the status in Printix Administrator. On the Printers page when you select Status you will now be presented with details about the Network, Printer, and Toner.
- Improved integration with third party Follow/Pull printing solutions. Chrome print documents, mobile print documents, and documents released from cloud storage are now supported and can be sent to and released from third party Follow/Pull print solutions.
- Tighter integration with Google. If you Delete a user in G Suite, the user is also deleted in Printix. If you Suspend a user in G Suite, the user is signed out from Printix and will not be able to sign in until the user's account is not suspended in G Suite. If Google groups is already enabled it needs to be enabled again. If Google groups is not enabled, it must be enabled.
- Printix App now has improved status reporting when releasing documents.
Fixes
- Windows default printer choice is now preserved when Printix Client converts a print queue.
- Additional optimization of the fix to Printix Client mentioned in changelog 2019-04, which dealt with the issue that under very rare conditions, involving bidirectional communication, a document would not be printed, because the connection from the Printix Client to the printer terminated abruptly.
- Discover printers would record Zebra printers without a MAC address if the MAC address was not configured for the printer's first Ethernet interface. Now each Ethernet interface is checked for a MAC address.
- Corrected timing issue that could prevent the conversion of shared print queues. Please observe that a shared print queue that has been added since Printix Client was started will not get converted until the computer is either restarted or the user signs out of the computer and signs in again. Alternatively, the PrintixClient.exe can be ended and started.
- On 2019-07-31 HP Universal Print PCL 6 (v6.8.0) version 61.230.1.24296 and HP Universal Print PS (v6.8.0) version 61.230.1.24296 made part of Printix Driver Store.
- Fixed rare issue in Printix App for iOS and Android with scan QR code and scan NFC tag.
- In Printix for Chromebook the menu item Open Printix Administrator is now available again if you are signed in with the Role as System manager. It was unintentionally left out of the menu in the previous version 1.0.0.60.
