PaperCut unveils PaperCut MF 25

PaperCut has released PaperCut MF 25, which introduces advanced scanning capabilities, extends support to new environments, and delivers a major architectural uplift to enhance security, stability and scalability for the future. PaperCut MF’s Advanced Scan Actions transforms basic scans into actionable data by enabling users to capture crucial metadata directly at the multi-function device (MFD). Customers can now seamlessly integrate scanned documents into systems like ERP, E-MDS and CMS, automating processes and minimising manual intervention. This feature allows partners to offer a more comprehensive solution that addresses complex document workflow needs. PaperCut MF 25 extends its Advanced Scan to Fax functionality to two segments. The first is Advanced Scan to Fax for Linux: organisations committed to Linux can now integrate secure, intelligent faxing directly from their MFDs. This new functionality

eliminates the need for separate servers or complex workarounds, reducing operational overhead and aligning with Linux-centric IT strategies. The second is Advanced Scan to Fax for Lexmark. The solution is now available directly on Lexmark MFDs, eliminating the need for separate hardware. This integration provides a unified, intuitive user experience and offers a more secure, efficient and cost-effective solution for advanced faxing needs. PaperCut MF 25 includes a significant infrastructure upgrade with updates to Java 21, Spring 6, and other core dependencies. This improves long-term security, stability, and scalability by closing vulnerabilities and ensuring the platform is ready for future innovations. “This release is about helping our customers and partners solve today’s challenges while future-proofing their technology stack,” says Matt Coad, head of self hosted software at PaperCut. n
