In addition to secure communication, iPrint Appliance now accepts non-secure communication from the Remote Renderer. In the Management Console Renderers's page, a new Settings icon has been added to select secure communication. If this option is not selected, both secure and non-secure communication will be supported.
For more information, see Section 6.2.2, Secure and Non-secure Communication Support (Remote Renderer).
A new iPrint client has been released for Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8.x, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2012 R2 with the following features:
Direct Print Accounting Support: Supports print accounting for direct printers with third-party print accounting solutions such as PaperCut. For more information, see Accounting With iPrint.
Simplified Printer Installation: Users can now install printers using the Google Chrome browser prior to version 42. Users also get an improved installation experience with the Firefox browsers. In addition, on the Internet Explorer browser, you no longer need to run as an administrator to install printers on the Windows operating systems. For more information, see Section 9.2.1, Using the iPrint Printer List Web Page on Windows.
If you are installing printers using the Google Chrome browser version 42 and later, see TID 7016444 on the Novell Support Site.
