Are you eliminating print servers in your branch offices? or don't have IT personal to locally maintain your IT infrastructure? No worries, we have a solution for that too. Using the ezeep hub at the branch offices will allow users to print to those office printers. The ezeep Hub connector will connect to your local network and automatically searches for printers and connects them to the ezeep cloud with just a few clicks! In addition, it enables a fully cloud-based printing solution, including cloud rendering, enabling print jobs to be processed in the cloud and taking away the need to manage print drivers in your environment.
Note: At this point, you must have already received the ezeep Hub from ezeep, took it out of the box and connected it to the power and network outlet, as well as connected any USB printers if needed. If you do not have the hub yet, you can order it via this link: ezeep Hub Order Now!
