     Appendix A - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE RELEASE                1(1)

     Product involved: AXIS Print Monitor for Windows 95
     Software version: 1.01
     --------------------------------------------------------------

     1. Due to improper handling of the allocated memory in the
        Print Monitor, the system could run out of memory which
        required reboot of the PC.

     2. The logfile changed name to axprmon.log in order to have the
        same name on Windows 95 and Windows NT. On Windows NT, the
        system creates a file called axismon.log requiring another
        name of the Print Monitor's log file.

     Additional Information
     ----------------------

     AXIS Print Monitor is used for peer-to-peer printing
     under Windows 95. Peer-to-peer printing means that
     your print jobs are sent directly to the print server.

     AXIS Print Monitor can be used for client server printing.
     Install AXIS Print Monitor on the server and share the
     printers.

     Microsoft Network (NetBIOS/NetBEUI) must be running when using
     AXIS Print Monitor.

     When using the Print Monitor in a client-server configuration,
     Pop-up messages should not be used on shared printers, since
     they are issued only on the server and must be acknowledged on
     the server before the print jobs will be released.



     Appendix B - SOFTWARE LIMITATIONS                                1(1)

     Product involved: AXIS Print Monitor for Windows 95
     Software version: 1.01
     --------------------------------------------------------------

     When running the Add Printer wizard immediately after the
     monitor is installed or after reboot, the list with available
     AXIS Ports may be empty. Go back in the wizard, wait and retry
     to get the list with AXIS Ports.

     Due to a limitation in Windows, it is not possible to
     print from DOS on the machine where AXIS Print Monitor is
     installed. If AXIS Print Monitor is installed on a server,
     it is possible to print from DOS from the clients.

     On shared printers in Windows 95, the status of the printer
     is not reported to the clients. Windows has no mechanism for
     reporting printer status to clients.

     1. Two big memory leaks fixed. In Axismon.c function
        SyncRegistry, portKeyPath was never deallocated. In 
        Axismon.c function StatusThread, a printer object was
        opened (OpenPrinter), but never closed.

     2. Help is called context sensitive. When in Configure Port
        dialog, that Help page is opened.

     3. The logfile has changed name to axprmon.log. The reason is
        that on NT 3.51 the system created a logfile called
        axismon.log
