Why Princh is perfect for your library

A visitor comes to your library to print a document. They go directly to your printer, scan a QR code with their phone, select the document they want to print, pay for it using ApplePay, and, finally, receive their print job. All this happens in under a minute, without staff assistance.

That’s the printing experience you will provide with Princh. Give your patrons an easy and secure way to print, copy, scan, and pay, without adding extra work for your staff.

Print from any device

Visitors can bring their own devices to print at your location(s), whether it’s their smartphone, tablet or laptop.

Questions & Answers

Yes! You can set Princh up directly on Ricoh IM series MFPs, eliminating the need for a printer server.

We have not encountered any LMS which cannot run seamlessly alongside our solution. Princh does not need to integrate with any LMS, since everything around printing and payment is handled by us.

They absolutely can. As long as patrons can find your printer ID they can remotely send their print jobs to your printer. We also recommend using our Manual Release feature, so your patrons have more control for releasing their print jobs.

The solution is managed via the Princh Administration Panel. Staff can release / cancel print jobs, manage printers, or review printing history, while admin users can manage locations, printing prices and Princh servers as well. Check out our interactive guide to see how the Admin Panel works.

Your annual subscription price includes staff training, regular security and feature updates, as well as any support you may need, via phone, email, or chat.
