Details

The Hot Fix addresses the following issue:

When the 7.0 Popup Client is installed on a client PC, a copy of the spool file created by each print job is temporarily stored in the Pharos\Temp folder, and is removed by Pharos Popups once the print job has been handled. For any printing done to non-Popups printers a copy of the spool file is also retained, but Popups was not deleting the spool file. This could potentially cause accumulation of many spool files on PCs if many print jobs were printed to non-Popups printers.

The application of this Hot Fix ensures that no more spool file copies will be retained after print jobs for both Popups and non-Popups printers. Existing copies of old spool files in the Pharos\Temp folder will need to be deleted manually.
