MySQL Compatibility
After installing Connect 1.7.1 a downgrade to a Connect version earlier than Connect 1.3 or to
a MySQL version earlier than 5.6.25 is not seamlessly possible. This is because the database
model used in Connect 1.3 and later (MySQL 5.6) is different to that used in earlier versions. If
you need to switch to an older version of Connect / MySQL, it is first necessary to remove the
Connect MySQL Database folder from "%ProgramData%\Connect\MySQL\data" before
installing the older version.
PostScript Print Presets
The print presets for PostScript were changed from Version 1.1 onwards meaning that some
presets created in Version 1.0 or 1.0.1 may no longer work.
Any PostScript print preset from Version 1.0 that contains the following will not work in Version
1.7.1: *.all[0].*
Any preset containing this code will need to be recreated in Version 1.7.1.
Available Printer Models
Note that only the single Printer Model (Generic PDF) will appear on the Advanced page of the
Print Wizard by default.
To add additional printer models click on the settings button next to the Model selection
entry box.
Note that the descriptions of some of the printers were updated in version 1.2 meaning that if
you had version 1.n installed, you may find that the same printer style appears twice in the list,
but with slightly different descriptions.
For example the following printer types are actually identical:
l Generic PS LEVEL2 (DSC compliant)
l Generic PS LEVEL2 (DSC)
