Symptom Corrected
Disabling (Down) or enabling (Up) AppleTalk protocol from the
operation panel sometimes did not take effect after the change.
To avoid this, the firmware has been changed to save a new
setting to the NVRAM immediately after a change.
One banner page data of NetWare was split into two pages when
using NetWare 3.12 pserver mode.
In the NetWare remote printer mode, the NIB consumed a server
connection license. To avoid this, the firmware has been
modified to disconnect the NCP connection immediately after the
remote printer has connected to the server.
Software modified so that it can also be used for the Stinger-C.
On the web status monitor, the incorrect icon was used for
“Paper Empty”.
When the NIB was receiving five communications (five print jobs)
from PCs at the same time, any additional print job (6th print job)
disappeared.

Symptom Corrected
Bi-directional communication of "diprint" (using the 9100 port of
TCP/IP printing) is supported (required for the DAZEL system).
The "diprint direct [On/Off]" command using telnet has been
implemented for supporting bi-directional communication of
diprint (required for the DAZEL system). PortNavi and Multidirect
Print are not supported if bi-directional communication has been
selected.
The spelling of the command "retern" in the UNIX install shell has
been corrected to "return".
The DHCP of NetWare5 is supported.
The DHCP relay agent is supported. (This has been confirmed
only with the Windows NT 4.0 relay agent at this time.)
There may be some minor (character) display errors on the LCD
while the NIB firmware is being upgraded. The firmware has been
modified to prevent this.
HTTP access has been improved when multiple protocols are
used at the same time (e.g. telnet, IPP and HTTP)
PCL text filter support has been added.
