Fixed a problem seen on some Windows XP desktops where the client software would report an annoying "End Now?" dialog on logout or system shutdown. The problem was caused by a 3rd party component.
[+] 2007年12月12日 - PaperCut NG 8.0 (Build 5428)
注意事项:
这是一个重大的发布。请检查升级政策,升级资格。This release also contains a database upgrade and administrators should factor this into their upgrade plan.
主要的新功能:
Added group-based printer restrictions allowing administrators to restrict the use of a printer to a group or set of groups. This is particularly useful on Mac servers, as OS X server does not have in-built group-based access controls.
Added a new account selection mode to automatically charge a user's print jobs to a single shared account. This is useful when a user works in a single department or project, as it automates account selection and removes the need to display the popup and run the client software.
Admin rights may now be assigned at the group level in addition to individual users. This offers more convenient management on sites with a large number of administrators.
对服务器和客户端完全支持Apple Mac OSX 10.5 (Leopard)
PaperCut now supports Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) offering an alternate clustering option in addition to Microsoft Clustering services.
Added new admin access controls (ACLs) to limit management tasks such as Pre-Paid card management and refunding of print jobs.
A new set of transaction based reports providing detailed listing and summary of transaction types and amounts.
Enhanced user account synchronization allowing users' card/identity numbers to be automatically imported/updated from fields in Active Directory or LDAP.
Internet 控制模块目前支持代理服务器直接运行的最大的OSX
Mac and Linux系统现在可以配置运行“二级Internet控制服务器”
改善不同的CSV报告以便更容易使用
Much improved documentation covering Apple Mac setup including deployment on Leopard and using the Workgroup Manager to publish printers.

Added total/summary rows to the bottom of all of reports.
Add a new option to allow the popup authentication to remember the authentication for "this job only".
Add more filters to the transaction log pages providing more flexibility searching of the transaction logs.
Improved the performance of the internal database, by automatically optimizing database tables.
