The Firmware Check plugin tries to identify printers or rather printer firmware
with known safety issues, such as disabled thermal runaway protection, or other
kinds of severe issues, like known communication crippling bugs, and displays a
warning box to logged in users on identification of such a firmware.

NEWS - OpenPrinting CUPS Filters v1.28.7 - 2021-01-07
-----------------------------------------------------
CHANGES IN V1.28.7
- driverless: Removed the support quality check from Pull
request #235 as it takes significant time for each printer
being listed, making cups-driverd (`lpinfo -m`) timing out
when there are many printers (OpenPrinting CUPS issue #65).
- libcupsfilters: In the PPD generator give priority to Apple
Raster against PDF (Issue #331).
- libcupsfilters: Added NULL check when removing ".Borderless"
suffixes from page size names (Issue #314, Pull request
#328).
- libcupsfilters: In the cupsRasterParseIPPOptions() map the
color spaces the same way as in the PPD generator (Issue
#326, Pull request #327).
- libcupsfilters: Fixed addition of grayscale mode in
generated PPD files, to avoid duplicate entries
(OpenPrinting CUPS issue #59).

NEWS - OpenPrinting CUPS Filters v1.28.6 - 2020-12-02
-----------------------------------------------------
CHANGES IN V1.28.6
- libcupsfilters: In generated PPDs add a grayscale mode if
there are only color printing modes (from OpenPrinting
CUPS).
- libcupsfilters: In generated PPDs add an "OutputBin" option
also if it has only one choice (OpenPrinting CUPS pull
request #18).
- libcupsfilters: Generated PPDs could have an "Unknown"
default InputSlot (OpenPrinting CUPS issue #44).
- cups-browsed: Removed unneeded IPP attribute additions
preventing the created local queues from preserving a
location or description the user assigns to them (Issue
#323).
- cups-browsed: Removed all calls of the resolve_uri() function
of libcupsfilters, as these are not actually needed and in case
the supplied DNS-SD-based URI is not resolvable, the function
gets stuck for ~5 seconds.
- cups-browsed: Fixed several memory leaks, mainly from the
code to merge printer IPP attributes for clusters (Pull
request #322).
- cups-browsed: Silenced compiler warning.
- foomatic-rip: Fix infinite loop and input from file on raw
printing (Pull request #318).
- foomatic-rip: Remove temporary file created during pdf-to-ps
conversion (Pull request #313).
Change to the OpenPrinting fork of apple/cups, e.g., that fork already contains
- dnssd patch patch-config-scripts_cups-dnssd.m4
- freebsd patch patch-cups_getifaddrs-internal.h
- libtool patch patch-af
https://github.com/apple/cups/issues/4947 was fixed in both.

Changelog:
This is qpdf version 10.0.2. This release includes several fixes
and performance improvements over 10.0.1. This release includes
prebuilt Linux binaries in a zip file for use in docker containers
or AWS Lambda. Also, the Windows releases are built with the latest
versions of dependent libraries and now use the OpenSSL crypto
provider by default. This is also the first release of qpdf to be
built with GitHub Actions.
