TLS: Options for Samsung XOA printers with PrinterOn app/agent installed on the printer - c07674069

As of March 31, 2020, PrinterOn is deprecating support for TLS v1.1 and earlier. These protocols no longer meet the security requirements of most security-conscious services such as PrinterOn. As a result, from that date forward, PrinterOn Public will require all communication between PrinterOn components to be secured using TLS v1.2 or later. This change will have an impact only on PrinterOn Public and PrinterOn Enterprise Hybrid customers. PrinterOn Enterprise On-Premise customers are not affected.  In order to ensure that your PrinterOn services does not experience a disruption, you must ensure that all PrinterOn client applications used to access your service are sufficiently upgraded and configured to use TLS 1.2.

As the existing PrinterOn agent for XOA printers no longer meet this security requirement, the agent might become unresponsive and no longer functional. The printing service can still continue to work but the printer agent can no longer be used and an alternative is needed.

The Alternative: Replace the embedded printer agent with a Print Delivery Station, a Windows-based software application. For steps on installing Print Delivery Station, please see this article.
