    ***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

    feature that replaces the “Set Client Runtime” feature.
