Question 1

What is EasyToPrint?

Accepted Answer

EasyToPrint is an all-in-one print shop management and printing automation platform. It bridges QR-based customer self-ordering, online UPI payments, and an automated Windows desktop Print Agent to eliminate counter chaos and automate printing workflows for Xerox shops and cyber centres.

Question 2

How does EasyToPrint work?

Accepted Answer

Customers scan your counter QR code on their smartphone, upload PDF documents, choose print settings (color/B&W, copies, duplex), and complete an instant UPI payment. The EasyToPrint Windows Agent immediately receives the paid order and automatically streams it to your connected printer without USB drives or manual intervention.

Question 3

What is the EasyToPrint Windows Agent?

Accepted Answer

The Windows Agent is a lightweight, secure desktop software running on your shop PC. It monitors your physical printers, connects via TLS 1.3 to your cloud queue, and silently dispatches print jobs through the native Win32 Print Spooler with DPAPI vault protection.

Question 4

Which printers are supported?

Accepted Answer

EasyToPrint supports all major desktop and commercial printers with Windows drivers—including HP, Canon, Epson, Brother, Ricoh, Konica Minolta, Kyocera, and Xerox. Both USB and local network printers are supported without requiring special hardware.

Question 5

Can I connect multiple printers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can connect and manage multiple physical printers simultaneously (such as a dedicated black-and-white high-speed laser printer and a high-resolution color photo inkjet). The platform automatically detects capabilities and routes customer orders to the correct device.

Question 6

Do customers need to install an application?

Accepted Answer

No. Customers do not need to download or install any app. The entire upload, customization, and payment process runs seamlessly in their mobile browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) within seconds of scanning your counter QR code.

Question 7

How do customer payments work?

Accepted Answer

Customers pay directly online using instant UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM) or cards powered by secure payment gateways like Razorpay. Print jobs are only dispatched to the printer queue after successful payment confirmation, eliminating unpaid prints and change calculation.
