Steps
- Log in, continue as guest, or use our WhatsApp Agent. We recommend logging in for better control of your print jobs.
- Upload files (PDF, Images). They stay ready until you choose what to print, and for up to 24 hours after upload.
- Select your files and click "Create Print Job" to choose print options and generate a PrintLink, QR code, or job code.
- At the store, share the PrintLink, show the QR code, or give the job code to retrieve and print your files.
- Disable the print job at any time so the store can no longer access it.
FAQ
- Can I use PrintLinks without an account?
- Yes. You can continue as a guest or use our WhatsApp Agent. Logging in gives you better control to manage and disable your print jobs later.
- Where can I collect my prints?
- At any print store you already use. Share your PrintLink, QR code, or job code to release the files for printing.
- Are my files safe?
- Yes. Your files are stored securely, encrypted, and automatically disabled after 24 hours. You can also disable access yourself at any time before that.
- Can the store see or save my files?
- There are two ways a store can print your files. If the store uses a PrintLink in a browser, they can technically view or save the file, but you stay in control and can disable access at any time. If the store uses the PrintLinks app with your job code, the files are retrieved and printed without being opened in a browser. That is the most privacy-friendly option.
- How do I pay for my prints?
- Pay the store directly when you collect your prints. PrintLinks does not handle payments.
- Is there a fee for using PrintLinks?
- Not currently. We are in an early launch phase and focused on learning from real usage.
