NOTE

There is no need to start the printer. Just make sure the printer and the software are both shut-down before installing the new version.

Before the installation: back-up the settings
1. Start the software
2. Select "MENU" >> "Parameter" >> "Back up to DISK" to save the settings to a file
3. Close the software
4. Rename the installation folder of the software
  e.g. "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF" >> "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF (old version)"
New version installation
1. Install the new version of the software
  Since the original installation folder is renamed, you can install it in the default folder
  e.g. "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF"
After installation: restore the settings
1. Copy all the files inside the following subfolder "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF (old version)\Medium" to the same subfolder of the latest installation: "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF\Medium"
2. Copy the "ricoh_phcfg.rhdat" file in the folder "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF (old version)" to the latest installation:
  "c:\Mutoh PJ-2508UF"
3. Start the new software
4. Select "MENU" >> "Parameter" >> "Load from DISK" to load the backed-up settings file
5. Close the new software

After that the installation is finished: the software is upgraded and all settings are migrated to the latest installed version!

1.0.1.14 Changed items

Native USB3 driver support for Windows 10

A new driver has been developed that can now be used on Windows 10, without workaround using "disabling the driver-signature". As a consequence, the native Windows 10 USB driver of the printer software will no longer be rejected after each Windows 10 major software-update by Microsoft.

Make sure to use the correct driver for the correct Windows version!
When upgrading on a Windows 10 station, ensure that the old (Windows 7) USB driver is properly uninstalled and removed first in the device-manager!

The default installation drive for the new software is now automatically the C-drive
A new print head configuration has been added
The version information is now visible in the main screen title bar
Expanded the field width of the print mode name
Added "Queue auto print" function

This function starts printing the next data without displaying the "media thickness" detection screen in the following screenshot:

If you check this "Queue Auto Print" checkbox, you can continue printing files continuously without this confirmation-window. The functionality of this checked box will only work when the "Add to Queue" is selected

Note

Experimental function: Added "White Edge Shrink" function in the print mode configurator

This function is experimental and not yet stable. It's currently not yet recommended to use this function. To be used on own risk only.
Spot color preview is now possible in the Task Select window
