Self-serve printing

Print from your phone.
Collect from the printer.

PrintPod is a self-serve printing pod. Send a PDF from wherever you are, set the options yourself, and take your pages off the tray when you arrive.

  • No account
  • PDF, up to 10 MB
  • Nothing to install

What you get

Everything a print shop does, minus the shop.

Same pages, same paper — fewer people involved.

  • No queue

    Send the job from wherever you are. It prints while you're on your way over — there's nobody to wait behind.

  • Straight to the printer

    Your file goes from your phone to the pod and nowhere else, then it's deleted the moment it has printed.

  • No account

    No sign-up, no password, no app to install. Open the site, pick a file, print.

  • Your settings

    Copies, colour, page range, paper size, scale, pages per sheet — all decided by you before you send.

  • Nothing to carry

    No pen drive, no emailing a stranger, no handing your unlocked phone across a counter.

  • Watch it happen

    The job reports back live — received, printing, done — so you know when it's worth walking over.

How to use

Upload, choose, collect.

Only the last step happens at the pod.

  1. Step 01

    Upload your PDF

    Open PrintPod in your phone's browser and choose the file. Up to 10 MB, with nothing to install first.

  2. Step 02

    Pick a pod and your options

    Choose the pod you're headed to, set copies, colour, pages and scale, then hit Print.

  3. Step 03

    Collect from the printer

    Follow the job as it goes from pending to printed, then take your pages off the tray.

Your document

It goes to the printer. Nowhere else.

Nobody handles it on the way but you.

Nobody opens it
There's no counter, no assistant and no shop computer in between. The file goes from your browser to the pod that prints it.
It's deleted after printing
The pod removes the file the moment the job finishes, so there's no archive sitting around afterwards.
No account to breach
Your browser holds an anonymous key. Only that key can read your job, and there's no password or profile attached to it.
What you sent is what prints
Every file is checked against a hash before it reaches the printer, so a partial upload never ends up on the tray.

Side by side

What actually changes.

Self-serve printing vs. a traditional print shop.

A print shop

  • Carry a pen drive, or hand your phone over
  • Queue behind whoever got there first
  • Whoever works the counter sees your file
  • A copy stays on the shop's computer
  • Settings explained across a counter
  • Open during shop hours, minus lunch
  • Wait to be handed your pages

PrintPod

  • Upload it from your phone, wherever you are
  • It prints while you walk over
  • Nobody sees it — straight to the printer
  • The file is deleted once it has printed
  • You set every option yourself
  • Available whenever the pod is up
  • Take your pages off the tray and go
