Driver history

CalderaRIP V19.0.1:
- Fixed an issue that prevented this driver from displaying the correct height and width of pages after importing the .sqpe file. Media now has the accurate dimensions following the import.
CalderaRIP V18.1.1:
- We've resolved an issue that caused the software to crash when printing a single-layer image.

CalderaRIP V17.3:
- It is no longer possible to use the multi-page settings available in the Main tab of Page Setup in combination with S&R (Step&Repeat). This is to avoid production issues due to incompatibilities with both tabs.

CalderaRIP V17:
- Revision A: Now this driver has only one default resolution, which prompts you to import the SQPE file into the ServerAdmin module.
  
  Caution
  
  Printing is not possible without importing the SQPE file.
  When using the "Nest" action, the job will remain on hold in the Spooler. When using the "Print" action, you will get a "driver error" message.

CalderaRIP V16.3:
- Revision A: Following an update on these printers' controllers (Lory V3.3), now both drivers support the latest specifications on the exchange format (SQPE file).
CalderaRIP V15.1:
- Revision A: When loading a .sqpe file to get device information, the File Selection window was freezing
CalderaRIP V15.0:
- Revision A: Printing in multilayer mode with cut or crop marks produced too many layers
- New multi-page settings
CalderaRIP V14 / 14.1:
- Revision A: Print field was duplicated + fix a bug when Fotoba ASP marks were enabled
CalderaRIP V13.0:
- Revision A.
