Version 2.3-7 of the PrintKit software is a maintenance update to version 2.3. It provides essentially the same feature set, but fixes several problems encountered in the version 2.3 software.

Version 2.3, a major release of the PrintKit software, provided new functionality and substantial recoding to enhance reliability. Key features include: support for Integrity servers; staple, punch, and folding controls; simplified queue configuration; listing data type with graybars, line numbers; separator page media selection.

The PrintKit 2.3-7 contains new model definitions. The definitions in this supplement have been validated for correctness.

For more recent models, and additional models that may not be fully validated, see the current Preliminary Printer Model Supplement.

The Quick Start document includes installation instructions and release notes. It is also included in the installation kit downloads.

The downloadable installation kit is a single self-extracting archive. Once you've transferred this file to your OpenVMS system, you run the file to unpack the individual components of the distribution, which consist of a VMSINSTAL saveset and the Read Me document.

The downloadable kit is a binary file. Be sure to keep this in mind if you need to transfer it between systems. (For instance, use TYPE IMAGE with FTP.) It should appear on your OpenVMS system with fixed-length 512-byte records.

Separate versions of the kit are provided for each of the OpenVMS hardware architectures. Each version contains a full kit – once unpacked, it can be installed on any of the hardware architectures – but each architecture requires its matching version of the self-extract code.

This kit supplies definitions for the following printer models. For each model, version numbers indicate the revision of the preliminary Supplement Kit which introduced the definition, and any revisions which changed it.
