Hello Jeff,

thanks for your mail.

The actual version 3.0.5.3 does not fully support PHP 7. It has problems 
with printing.

We fixed this already in the release branch 3.0.5. With the next release 
3.0.5.4 we will be ready for PHP7.

You can get the nightly package at:
http://mapbender3.org/builds/nightly/

We updated the windows requirement list for PHP7 already:

http://doc.mapbender3.org/en/book/installation/installation_windows.html

PHP zip as additional extension is needed.
# php.ini
# Download PHP Zip http://pecl.php.net/package/zip/1.13.2/windows
extension=php_zip.dll

I will let you know, when 3.0.5.4 comes out and can get integrated to 
ms4w.
