Update PDF printer from version 7.7 to version 9

Post by jsphillips » 29 Nov 2020 10:43

Hi All
I have read the previous topics concerning the Nova pdf printer.
Recently because of windows 10 update to 2004 build 19041.630 and further enhancements I find that I have had to update many progs/apps for successful working. My Printer hardware of Epson Samsung & Dell has all been updated and are now working again. I have run a check on all programs and Apps and I see I have NOVA PDF Printer 7.7 build 399.
Apparently the latest version is version 9.
Is this a Calico requirement that we stay with version 7.7 or should I update to version 9 ?
The newer Windows update that is imminently due requires that you check and where necessary update all drivers etc

Stay with Nova Printer 7.7 that is installed with FH as it is the only one Calico Pie are licenced to distribute.

If it is Windows 10 20H2 that you are thinking of, I have it on three PCs now, and everything worked fine, including Family Historian 6 and both Canon and HP network multifunction/printers, with no other upgrades required.
