Cloud Pull Printing in OptimiDoc Cloud enables users to submit documents from any supported device—workstation, mobile, web, or cloud storage—into a secure personal or shared pull‑print queue. Documents remain encrypted and inaccessible until the user authenticates and releases them at a multifunction device (MFP) or a network printer via the OptimiDoc Cloud Mobile App. This workflow guarantees confidentiality, prevents sensitive documents from being left exposed, and fully supports hybrid‑work mobility.
Print Anywhere, Release Anywhere
OptimiDoc Cloud gives users complete printing freedom without relying on local networks or print servers. Documents can be submitted from workstations, the web, mobile devices, or Chromebooks—allowing users to print from home, on the move, or in the office.
Because jobs are stored securely in the cloud, users can release them anywhere by authenticating at any printer connected to OptimiDoc Cloud. Pull printing works across all major printer brands, and even printers without native integration can be used via the mobile app.
Flexible Configuration of Pull Printing in OptimiDoc Cloud
OptimiDoc Cloud provides highly flexible Pull Printing configuration options, allowing organisations to tailor print workflows for various teams, sites, and security requirements. This flexibility is built around virtual spoolers, which define how print jobs are stored, accessed, and released.
User‑Specific Pull Print Spoolers
Each user has a private pull‑print queue stored in an isolated container that only they can access.
Ideal for:
-
High‑security environments
-
Personal devices
-
Identity‑based data isolation
Shared Pull Print Spoolers
Multiple authorised users share a single queue.
Useful for:
-
Shared office printers
-
Team printing zones
-
Operational workplaces needing collaborative access
Custom Print Behaviour per Spooler
Each virtual spooler can have unique:
-
Print settings (colour/mono, duplex, finishing options)
-
Storage backend (OptimiDoc storage, OneDrive, Google Drive, etc.)
-
Access rules (per user, group, department, or role)
This allows administrators to create different print experiences within one tenant, such as:
-
A cost‑saving mono spooler for general users
-
A full‑colour spooler for marketing
-
A highly secure spooler for HR or Finance
-
A shared spooler for reception or logistics
Summary
Cloud Pull Printing in OptimiDoc Cloud works by storing documents securely in cloud storage or Cloud Nodes, authenticating users at the device, and releasing jobs only after secure identity verification.
This ensures:
-
Maximum document security
-
Full mobility
-
No reliance on workstations or local networks
-
Cross‑platform device support
-
Central auditability and accounting
