Blueprint 5.0 and later with EDI

Upgrade to Blueprint 5.4 Update 3

Blueprint and Uniprint customers should install the fixes. Older, unsupported versions of Blueprint and Uniprint should be upgraded to a supported version of software first.

How do I determine what version of software I'm on?

  • Blueprint:

    • Blueprint: In the Blueprint Administrator, select “Help”, then select “About”, which will show the version number

    • Print Center: Bottom of Print Center login screen displays the version number

  • Uniprint:

    • Uniprint: Uniprint Updater Service shows available packages, installed packages, and their respective version numbers.

    • Print Center: Uniprint Updater Service shows available packages, installed packages, and their respective version numbers.

    • SignUp: Same version as the Uniprint version

How much time will these updates take?

For Blueprint, if a customer is already on 5.4 or later, the updates should take less than 15 minutes per server. Customers on Blueprint 5.3 Update 7 or earlier will first need to upgrade to 5.4, and then apply Update 3. Multiple upgrades are required in this scenario, but servers can be updated concurrently.

For Uniprint, if a customer is already on Uniprint 9.1 SP3 or 9.2 General Release, the updates should take less than 15 minutes per server. If a customer is on an earlier version, it may take around 15 minutes to an hour per server to apply the Service Pack, including this update (servers can be updated concurrently).
