Printer Properties Pro 6.5
Administrator 6.5, Client 6.5
Version released on 05/11/2004

Printer Watcher tuned to use even less workstation resources

Buffer size increased to fix a problem where certain printer drivers
     (were only getting some settings)

Fixed - PPPClient giving read error with busy networks

Fixed - PPPClient giving Advapi32.dll error on NT

Please see version 6.0 and 6.4 for more new features of version 6

Fixed - When running PPPClient.exe as a "unsecure system user" an
     application error occurs

Fixed - RPM installed public access printers were not being
     configured

Fixed - 98 application error from v6.1

Fixed - PPPAdmin giving Advapi32.dll error w/ certain printers

     ***RATED BEST NEW FEATURE BY PPPRO STAFF!***

Printer Watcher - PPPClient & PPPAdmin no longer have the "Set
     Client Runtime" option. The option is no longeravailable because the
     new PPPClient.exe waits as a background process (requires no
     resources) for any new printer installation. When a new printer is
     installed PPPClient.exe will immediately configure the printer. Why is
     this better?  So that all you have to do is fire off the PPPClient.exe
     (login script, Nal, etc.) and when a printer gets installed in 5 minutes
     or 5 hours PPPClient.exe will configure the printer automatically!

Support for IPP domain name changes

Support for IPP user or workstation printers

Support for Post Script drivers so the workstation does not
     have to reboot to get settings.

New printer finder that requires a lot less resources when starting
     the PPPClient.exe

Less network traffic generated because of the "Printer Watcher"
     feature that replaces the "Set Client Runtime" feature.

Fixed a bug that appears when installing NDPS printers with
     workstation association using Zenworks.If the workstation group or
     container object was not in the "role" of the printer then PPPClient
     would not find the printer.

Fixed a bug in v5.11 PPPClient.  If the " set client runtime" value was
     > 0, the PPPClient would not close

Fixed - Setting default printer in PPPCLient.exe v 5.10 or previous 5.x
     versions

Improvements for HP drivers

Support for NT document defaults

Public Access printers supported

Separate configurations for XP/2000/NT

Truncated printer support for all operating systems

Additional operating system language support

PPPClient.exe no longer "bings" when closing

PPPClient & PPPAdmin will recognize and apply settings to 9x printers
     that were distributed by ZEN printer policies

Fixed bug with running PPPClient as system user.

New Interface

Faster NDS tree browser

Ability to set the Client Runtime

     if administrator canceled any changes

Fixed - When running PPPAdmin.exe on Windows 9x, it could halt the
     pc when adding a printer (from within the PPPAdministrator) and
     clicking cancel

New check box "Show client window on workstation" to show
     logging dialog on client

New check box "Prepare workstation for system user" This new
     feature prepares the workstation to run the client as a system user
     (using Zenworks and no workstation registration).   Now the users
     no longer need Administrator rights on NT/2000 machines
