Installation

The easiest way to install the MyQ Canon Embedded terminal is via remote installation from the MyQ Web administrator interface. This method is very simple and it is preferable, especially when you need to install the terminal on a large number of printing devices, since you can install multiple devices in a batch.

You do this by creating separate printer discoveries and adding a configuration profile to any one of them. At the same time, you can assign the discovered printers to a group and/or queue.

Before the installation, make sure that the server hostname/IP address in MyQ, Settings, Network is correct. If it’s not, which could happen after a license update or upgrade, the remote setup will fail.

Remote installation via Printer Discovery

  1. Follow the instructions in the MyQ Print Server guide to create and configure a Printer Discovery.

  2. Then, you should create a configuration profile to attach to your Printer Discovery.

  3. The Canon section is displayed when the Canon terminal package is installed on the MyQ server. Applying the changes in the Canon section on the terminal require a force remote configuration of the device.

  • It is possible to change the Local Admin Pin. When the field is empty, the default value 1087 is used.

  • It is possible to change the Panel logout button function of the terminal. The available options are Logout and Return to top menu.
