Version  Modified Points or Symptom Corrected 
3.  Specific versions of SSL or TLS (SSLv2, SSLv3, or TLSv1) can now be 
enabled/disabled using Web Image Monitor. The setting can be configured from 
either of the following locations: 
-  Configuration > Security > Network  Security 
-  Configuration > Security > SSL/TLS 
 
4.  The encryption strength used for SSL can now be configured. This can be done 
using either of the following settings in Web Image Monitor: 
-  Configuration > Security > Network  Security 
-  Configuration > Security > SSL/TLS  
----------------------- 
5.  For security reasons, the device will no longer accept SSL incoming, or establish 
outgoing, connections that use NULL or ADH ciphers. 
 
6.  Windows Authentication fails if the username or password includes lower-case 
European characters. 
 
7.  The device's SMB timeout was too short (1sec). This caused problems when 
being used across subnets. For this reason, it has been increased to 10 sec.  
7.31 Other changes: 
1.  For security reasons, the device will no longer accept SSL connections that use 
the NULL or Anonymous Diffie-Hellman ciphers. 
7.30  Symptom corrected:  
1.  The printer's IP address lease renewal request is incorrectly formatted and 
rejected by DHCP relay agents. This will result in a loss of connectivity that lasts 
until the printer reinitializes the network connection (10 seconds). 
2.  If either of the WSD Printer or Netware functions are enabled, the following 
problems might occur. If these problems occur, they typically last for about 2.5 
hours. 
-  The network might become unresponsive. 
-  Menu can be accessed but configuration changes will not be applied. 
3.  Windows authentication might fail on a domain controller whose hostname 
contains 2 byte characters. 
4.  SDK/J applications might not be able to recognize some supported USB 
devices. 
5.  When the device IP address and DNS server location are obtained from DHCP, 
the domain specified by the device setting "IPv4 > Domain Name > Specify" will 
be overwritten by the domain obtained from DHCP. 
7.26  Symptom corrected:  
1.  When jobs are submitted to the device's lpr port repeatedly, some of the jobs 
might not be printed.  
2.  If IPP authentication is enabled, printing through an IPP port from a Windows 
Vista/Server 2008 client might result in printing failure. 
3.  Multiple Windows Vista/Server 2008 PCs might not be able to access the device 
through IPSec. 
7.24.1 Other changes: 
1.  Kerberos authentication support for Windows Server 2008. 
 
Symptom corrected:  
1.  IPP print jobs are cancelled. This happened very infrequently.
