Print management solutions have become indispensable tools for businesses seeking greater control, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in their printing processes. These solutions offer a wide array of options for printing, catering to the diverse needs of modern workplaces.
In this overview, we’ll take a look at a crucial part of any printing workflow – all the possible ways your users can send files to print.
Print with System Printers
Users can use the native print dialogues in Windows and macOS to print using printers created on the system level.
This allows them to print from any application.
System printers are associated with an installed print driver.
Jobs can be transferred to MyQ X via IPPS, LPR, and RAW protocols.
MyQ X’s print spooler is listening for incoming jobs. It does not rely on the Windows print spooler and does not require the installation of an additional LPD service.
Easy Print from Local, Network, and Cloud Storage
Easy Print is a unique feature that allows users to select files from their available local and network folders or straight from cloud services, all directly on the device’s Embedded Terminal. This gives them the option to simply save the document in any of their available locations, come to the printer, and select this file for printing.
Print from Mobile Devices
MyQ X Mobile Client
Print documents stored on a mobile device or in cloud storage already connected to your smartphone. Simply open the app, select a file, and send it to print.
MyQ X Mobile Client is available for download in the App Store and Google Play.
Native Print with AirPrint and Mopria
You can allow users to print from their mobile devices natively via AirPrint and Mopria with the help of the MyQ Mobile Print Agent (MPA) service.
MPA is a lightweight client that publishes your mobile-enabled print queues to users on any network required.
With AirPrint, your Apple users can utilize the native print option of iOS/iPadOS/macOS. Printing from macOS is also possible to configure without an MPA service with IPPS and LPD printers.
Mopria requires an additional app installed on Android devices that will be used for printing.
