Legend:

check mark  Added feature
info  Improved/changed feature
warning   Bug fixed

Version 2026.06.04

warning   Fixed broken density setting

The density setting under scan settings is now displayed correctly and is reliably applied to scans. Previously, the setting could appear incorrectly or fail to take effect, leading to unexpected scan results. (HBT-6370)

warning   Fixed scan to JPEG format

When scanning with the JPEG format selected, an empty document is no longer created. Users now receive the expected output, ensuring scans complete as intended without invalid files. (HBT-6369)

warning   Fixed translations containing broken variables

Translated text that previously displayed broken or unresolved variables now renders correctly. This ensures users see clear, properly localised messages throughout the interface. (HBT-6384)

warning   Fixed language selector selecting language when scrolling

The language selector no longer unintentionally changes the selected language while the user is scrolling through the list. Languages are now only selected on a deliberate choice, preventing accidental changes.

warning   Fixed duplicated endpoint screen when retry button is used

Using the retry button no longer results in a duplicated endpoint screen. The interface now handles retries cleanly, providing a consistent and uncluttered user experience. (HBT-6347)

warning   Fixed scan paper size selection dropdown size

The paper size selection dropdown under scan settings is now displayed at the correct size, making it easier for users to view and select the appropriate paper size. (HBT-6369)

Version 2026.05.20

check mark Scan workflows support

Users can now access and run scan workflows from the terminal interface. Scan workflows enable users to scan documents into predefined destinations and formats, supporting common business processes such as scanning to email, network folders or cloud storage.

The terminal provides a simple and consistent workflow selection experience, helping users complete document digitisation tasks quickly and securely. (HCP-16221)

info Improved terminal security with token signing and replay protection

Token signing has been introduced alongside replay protection. This ensures terminals remain secure and that device code flow does not need to be re-run. (HCP-15394)

info Custom logo upload has no longer 10 kB size restriction

Custom logo uploads were limited to a 10 kB file size, preventing administrators from uploading standard-sized logo files and resulting in missing logo on the terminal. (HCP-15585)

check mark Pull print now supports all finishing options

Users can now pull and print jobs with the full set of finishing options originally defined within our driver, such as stapling, hole punching, and folding.

This ensures finishing settings are correctly transferred and applied when printing from the cloud, so output matches the intended job configuration. (HCP-15861)

Users can now also set or modify basic finishing options directly on the terminal, such as number of copies, colour, or duplex.

check mark Users are notified when print job finishing options are not supported

When a print job contains finishing options the target device does not support, the user is now clearly informed before or during printing.

This prevents silent failures and gives users the opportunity to adjust settings or select a different device, ensuring a predictable printing experience. (HCP-15862)

check mark Support for custom public CA-signed certificates

Administrators can now configure the terminal to trust custom public CA-signed certificates for their SAFEQ Cloud tenant, rather than relying solely on the default certificate chain. (HCP-15977)

warning Fixed Canon device copy operation causing terminal instability

When using the Canon device copy functionality, device-specific data was incorrectly included in the copy operation. This could cause a newly provisioned or reset terminal to break. (HCP-15981)

check mark Support for proxy with basic authentication

The terminal now supports connectivity through proxy servers that require basic authentication credentials. (HCP-15992)

info PIN code auto-submits when the OK key is pressed

Users can now confirm their PIN entry by pressing the OK key on the device, which automatically submits the PIN without requiring an additional step. (HCP-16050)

check mark Terminal settings secured with MFD admin credentials

Terminal configuration settings are now protected by MFD administrator credentials, preventing unauthorised access to the terminal setup.

Additionally, administrators can now unlock the MFD directly from the terminal interface. This enhances overall security and gives administrators reliable control over both terminal configuration and device access. (HCP-16178)

check mark Terminal can be configured using the Terminal Deployment Tool (TDT)

The terminal can now be remotely configured using the Terminal Deployment Tool, enabling centralised and automated configuration management across device fleets.

This reduces the need for manual on-device configuration and supports efficient, consistent deployments at scale. (HCP-16179)

info Stored device token and API key are now encrypted with a device-specific compound key

Device tokens and API keys were stored without device-specific encryption, posing a potential security risk if stored credentials were exported with weak password and the export decrypted.

Both credentials are now encrypted using a compound key derived from device-specific secrets. This binds the credentials to the originating device, preventing unauthorised reuse or extraction on a different device. (HCP-16180)

info Push print features now at parity with Canon Gen 1 Embedded Terminal

The push print functionality has been extended to match the full feature set of the Canon Gen 1 Embedded Terminal.

Existing users migrating from the first-generation Canon ET will benefit from a consistent and complete push print experience, ensuring a smooth transition with no loss of functionality. (HCP-16180)

check mark Installation automation

Terminal installation can now be automated, significantly reducing the manual effort required during large-scale deployments.

IT administrators can streamline rollouts across device fleets, ensuring consistent and repeatable installations. (HCP-16363)

Version 2026.02.13

check mark Terminal self-registration

The terminal can now register itself and obtain a device token autonomously, without requiring manual printer creation for each device. (HCP-14967)

check mark Terminal configuration persisted across device restarts

Terminal configuration is now saved and retained across machine restarts and power cycles.

Administrators no longer need to reconfigure the terminal after a restart, ensuring consistent operation and reducing post-maintenance overhead. (HCP-15043)

check mark Endpoint registration

The terminal now supports full endpoint registration with the SAFEQ Cloud infrastructure.

This enables the device to be recognised and centrally managed as a registered endpoint within the SAFEQ Cloud environment. (HCP-15057)

check mark Administrators can add output port and embedded client

Administrators are now able to configure the required output port and embedded client for the Canon Gen 2 Cloud Terminal directly within the Web User Interface. (HCP-15062)

check mark Automated embedded terminal onboarding

The terminal now supports automated onboarding, including automatic creation of the output port and embedded terminal configuration.

This significantly reduces manual setup steps and enables a faster, more reliable deployment process for new installations. (HCP-15314)

check mark PIN and username/password authentication

Users can now authenticate at the terminal using either a PIN code or a username and password combination.

This provides flexible authentication options to accommodate a range of organisational security policies and user preferences. (HCP-15396)

check mark Quick actions available on the terminal

A set of quick actions is now available directly on the terminal interface, allowing users to perform common tasks in fewer steps.

This improves workflow efficiency and delivers a more intuitive experience at the device. (HCP-15397)

check mark Job list – users can view their print jobs

Users can now see a list of their queued print jobs directly on the terminal before releasing them.

This gives users full visibility into their pending jobs, enabling informed decisions about which jobs to print or discard. (HCP-15398)

info Application icon and name updated

The application icon and display name have been updated to reflect the current product branding.(HCP-15569)

check mark Users can pull print jobs from the cloud

Users can now release and print their jobs from the cloud using pull print directly at the terminal.

Jobs are held securely in the cloud until the user authenticates at the device and chooses to release them, enabling a flexible and secure printing workflow. (HCP-15581)

check mark Custom logo support

Administrators can now upload a custom logo to be displayed on the terminal interface.

This allows organisations to brand the terminal with their own identity, providing a consistent visual experience across deployed devices. Note that some limitations apply in this release. (HCP-15582)

check mark Card authentication

Users can now authenticate at the terminal using their access card.

Card-based authentication provides a fast and contactless login experience, supporting common card formats used in enterprise environments. (HCP-15583)
