On the OES Server Web page there is a software download tab. On the Printer Install page you can also download the iPrint client. It would be helpful if these pages also displayed the version number of the software being offered.

The list provided in the Inventory Detail Report are great, but when they are large it is hard to parse them as we lack any sorting or export options. Even a basic Copy 'n Paste doesn't help much as each entry is a pair of lines that each fill one cell...

NURM is a very practical tool to search and display NSS Rights. But with OES2018SP2 it requires a login into Microsoft AD. Please make NURM work without the AD login requirement. This would enable NURM to search and display rights in an eDir only installation...
