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.
-
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.
-
Step 02
Pick a pod and your options
Choose the pod you're headed to, set copies, colour, pages and scale, then hit Print.
-
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
