Star CloudPRNT Enables remote printing directly to Star printers anywhere
Star CloudPRNT enables remote printing directly and securely from a web server to Star printers anywhere in the world without the need for a local POS terminal or PC, avoiding complicated network configurations. This solution is ideal for cloud-based POS applications such as shelf-edge labeling, Click & Collect, restaurant aggregation and courier deliveries.
- For shelf-edge labeling, a Star printer can print and cut 80mm or 112mm wide labels sent directly from Head Office, enabling price changes to be implemented immediately across a number of locations and individual stores.
- Click & Collect in-store orders – ideal for customers ordering from a retailer’s central website but collecting goods in individual stores.
- Restaurant aggregation – providing constant polling for online orders. A cost-effective solution for smaller takeaways / restaurants as the one printer can act as both the receipt printer and website order printer.
- Logistics – an efficient replacement for a courier driver’s PDA using a mobile device or tablet. With the solution on the smartphone or 3G/4G tablet, the driver can obtain the customer’s signature upon delivery of the item. When the driver presses ‘Complete Delivery’ the delivery information is sent via CloudPRNT to a Star printer with a HI X Connect interface, providing proof of delivery. The solution can also be used for courier labeling applications.
