How to apply a Canon license

Canon licensing uses a new royalty-free licensing agreement between Tungsten Automation and Canon, as the Canon MEAP license used by Tungsten embedded applications is now a royalty-free A1 license.

Both Printix Go Canon and the Printix Go Canon Login apps require a separate license to apply for and install. Ensure the Canon printer is in production mode.

To obtain and apply your A1 LIC license file:

  1. Open the LAN file that was included with the application JAR file and record the license access number.

    Tungsten is unable to provide the License Access Number (LAN) for the China region. When using this embedded client in the China region, the reseller or customer must contact Canon China for a LAN key. Each license number can be installed on up to ten devices. This LAN key may be chargeable dependent on the regional (Chinese) licensing model.

  2. Record and add the serial number for each Canon MFP you want to license in a CSV format.
  3. Navigate in a web browser to the Canon License Management System (http://www.canon.com/meap).
  4. Enter the license access number and select Next.
  5. Verify the information and select Apply to Issue a License.
  6. Navigate to the CSV file on your local computer.
  7. Complete the rest of the steps until a license (.lic) file is downloaded.
  8. To finalize Canon licensing, see the instructions in How to prepare Canon printer for Printix Go.
