Hello. I am a software engineer working for a large digital print company, using large machine park of many NORITSU QSS minilab printers, like Noritsu QSS 3411, 3201, 3202
Recently, I have been developing a software for integration of Noritsu minilab printers with our own production system. I am using the QSS Network Service API with NetOrder TCP/IP Interface Version. Everything works great for dozens of machines QSS 3411, 3201, 3202, all having QSS Network Service versions from 2.1.0 to 2.3.0. I was able to develop the modern programming library to communicate with machines allowing:
- Reading machine state with solution temperatures, spooler space, usage statistics
- Reading paper and magazine information's (length, surface, width and more)
- Reading Errors and Attention Status
- Reading Print channel information's
- Loading and managing colour profiles
- LUT data registration
- Printing (Order registration, orders queue and history information's)
Recently my company has installed more machines with new software QSS 3702. They have an EZ-Controller instead of QSS installed and use newer API version - 3.1.1. I'm having an integration difficulties. I'm able to get some information (not all, for example spooler size info is always zero) and print orders. On the other hand, I cannot read orders information and history. The only status code I get is -51 (QSS NOT SUPPORT). Documentation says nothing about it and I am stuck here.
I will appreciate any help
