  For more detailed information about bug fixes, see Mobility Print Release Notes.

• Watermarking and digital signatures: Watermarking and digital signatures are powerful capabilities that enhance printing security by allowing identification of the source of any printed document. Enhancements to the existing functionality include:
  • The addition of full page watermarking for PCL6 and PostScript print jobs. This allows you to print a repeating watermark across the entire page, making it impossible for someone to remove it without destroying the document. Note: If you have secondary servers (Print Providers), you must upgrade them all for this functionality to work.
  • The default text used in the printed watermark now includes the %signature% variable. This prints a digital signature on each page, which can be used to identify the exact job in the job log.
• Secure Print / Find-Me configuration: Enhancements to Secure Print and Find-Me now make it easier to find printers and get your configuration right the first time. Changes include:
  • Added the ability to filter the source queue list by printer name on the Create Device page and Device Details page.
