- If SSDP = Active (Web ImageMonitor > Configuration > Network
Security), a high load on the CPU might result in Web ImageMonitor
locking up.
- LP with an external controller will lose network connectivity. This
only occurred if the network settings were changed repeatedly and
the LP's "NetWare" setting was already "Active" (before the network
settings were changed).
- The LP icon might not be shown in the Windows "Network" dialogue
if SSDP is enabled. This affected Windows Vista, 2008/R2, and 7.
- The device might lose network connectivity if SSDP is enabled.
Network connectivity could be temporarily restored after a power
cycle.

RTB Reissue
The items in bold italics were corrected or added.
This RTB has been issued to announce the release of the data files (xxx.mqp) and the
Media List used for the Paper Library on the Aries-P1.5/C1.5.
MQP files and Media Lists are confidential information.
About the Media List
Media have been evaluated under 4 categories, “Image Quality”, “Image Performance”,
“Feed Performance” and “Others”, which are ranked in 4 levels (A+, A, B, and C). The
lowest rank from among the 4 categories becomes the overall evaluation rank for each
media.
About the MQP file
The MQP file only contains data for media ranked either ‘A+’ or ‘A’. Installing the MQP file
into the Aries–P1.5/C1.5 will enable application of the media from the Paper Library.
Rank Description
A+ Good results, no remarks. (Better than the product spec) (Only Image Quality)
A Good results, no remarks. (Product Spec)
B Note the remarks. Customers must be aware of the remarks.
C Not recommended.
