PaperCut 17.02 - Anyone given it a whirl yet?

[pete]

I'm waiting on assurances of copier compatibility (plus a few other things I've been nudging $manufacturer for), but the mobile printing revamp looks good.

Installed it last week... upgrade process was the same as any previous update.

 

All went well, except for FollowMe queue showing error (which was simply cured by cancelling the single print job that was in a error state within the queue)

 

GUI 'totally' different...

Farcically, we're still on v11.4. Counting the days until Easter when we'll be moving things forward just a tad...

We've only had Papercut since June last year and haven't upgraded yet - is the process fairly straightforward? I like the look of the new mobile printing feature so Easter would be a good time to upgrade.

^ For NG? Yes, pretty much every time it's been flawless for us.

 

For MF? Give your copier vendor a bit to test it against their kit and confirm everything's fine before you upgrade.

I would think Easter is the ideal time for us to move onto this version from 16.02, like the new look and the mobile printing looks cool which will fit in nicely with our moves into 1:1 devices and printing from the cloud will make this heaps better.

Upgrades are easy, just ensure you backup your database and note the version you was on. Its just a next next next process. You can only upgrade if you are still in maintenance also.

 

Thew new mobility print is a separate installer file, I'm told its an easy setup, just not had 5 minutes yet.

 

PaperCut is a simple product I find to work with when doing upgrades.

Been running 17.04 NG for a couple of weeks, really like the new interface and the new mobile printing app is really good. Will put 17.05 on next week

(now) running PaperCut 17.0.5 since release, without any known issues using combination of Toshiba eStudio MFD and Kyocera mono printers.

No as inspection in 3 weeks and NOT CHANGING ANYTHING before that!

 

But yes will upgrade to 17 and see how my Ricoh fleet handles it. Looking forward to the new interface.
