What would it cost you

Questions people ask first

What counts as a print?

Every job that reaches a printer. A job that failed — no paper, printer offline, bridge unreachable — is not billed, because nothing came out.

Do I need a bridge per printer?

No. Two USB printers fit on one bridge — a receipt printer and a label printer on the same counter is the usual case. You need a bridge per location, not per printer.

Can I start without hardware?

Yes. Every account has a virtual bridge: it accepts jobs, renders them exactly as a real printer would, and shows you the result. You integrate first and order the bridge once it works.

Can I use a computer instead of a bridge?

Yes, on a Mac, a Linux machine or a Raspberry Pi: the bridge also exists as software and speaks the same protocol as the hardware, so nothing about your integration changes when you swap. A proper Windows app is still being built.

Can I cancel monthly?

Yes. Billing is per month and overage is pay-as-you-go. There is no minimum term and no notice period.

What if I want to run it myself?

The server ships as a Docker image. Self-hosting needs no subscription; it also comes without our support and without the hosted dashboard.

How does VAT work?

Prices exclude VAT. Businesses in the EU with a valid VAT number are invoiced with the reverse charge.

You do not need one to start

Every account comes with a virtual bridge. It accepts jobs, renders them exactly as a real printer would, and shows you the result in the dashboard. Integrate first, order the hardware once it works — that way the box arrives at a counter where the software is already finished.
