It Needs Less Printing Work. Hybrid and remote teams still need to print at times, and IT pays the price in tickets, workarounds, and wasted time.  ### Home Offices Are a Wild Mix Every employee works with a different printer, OS, router, and Wi-Fi setup. IT can’t manage or support environments they can’t see. ### VPN Printing Breaks - A Lot VPNs slow down printing, distort documents, or simply block traffic. Some home networks don’t pass print jobs at all. #### Virtual Desktops Add Friction Remote desktops don’t always discover nearby printers. Driver mapping fails. And local/remote redirection is unreliable. Features ## Simple, Secure Printing for Your Distributed Workforce ## Eliminate the Top Helpdesk Complaint: Printer Drivers Stop troubleshooting home printers. With ezeep's driverless printing, users can print to any device - at home or in the office - without a single driver installation. We handle the complexity in the cloud so your team can close the recurring tickets and focus on what matters. [See How Driverless Printing Works Click to See How Driverless Printing Works](https://www.ezeep.com/features/driverless-printing?hsLang=en) ## Free Your Users from the VPN Requiring a VPN connection just to print is a clunky and frustrating user experience. ezeep enables direct, secure cloud printing that works whether a use is on the corporate network or not. Remove a critical point of failure and give your remote employees a modern, seamless workflow. [Explore our Security Features Click to Explore our Security Features](https://www.ezeep.com/security-compliance?hsLang=en) ## One Print Experience. Everywhere.

Move campus printing to the cloud and reduce the day-to-day maintenance burden. Have fewer patches, fewer queue mysteries, and fewer "it broke overnight" surprises. Server-Free Centralized Less Upkeep ## One Experience Across Campus Support the real education device mix - Chromebooks, MacBooks, Windows laptops, tablets, and phones - across libraries, labs, dorms, and shared printers without special steps per department or "this printer only works on that OS." Campus-Wide Cross-Platform User-Friendly ## Permissions That Actually Make Sense Tie printer visibility and access to identity and groups, so students, staff, faculty, and researchers see the right printers by role, building, and department - all without constant manual adjustments. Role-Based Location-Aware Consistent ## Temporary Access, Without Temporary Chaos Support guest lecturers, visiting scholars, events, and short-term programs with controlled access that doesn't create recurring IT work or one-off setups. Temporary Access Controlled Low Effort ## Confidential Pages Stay With The Right Person Reduce tray exposure in busy shared spaces. Pull Printing helps ensure jobs only release when the user authenticates at the printer with their school ID, helping protect exams, registrar documents, and sensitive student records. Private Release Less Mix-Ups Auditable ## Visibility Finance Can Actually Use Understand usage across departments and locations, support quotas and accountability, and make it easier for busier and finance teams to track print spend without turning IT into the print police.  Measurable Accountable Budget-Friendly ## Cost Recovery Without The Busywork For campuses that charge students to print, ezeepCampus adds Self-Join onboarding and credit-based printing, so students and staff can self-serve while your institution keeps pricing and access under control. Self-Join Credit-Based Accountable - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ## How Hybrid & Remote Printing Works with ezeep Go from "I need this printed" to page-in-hand in three quick, simple steps. Connect your printers to the cloud, add your people, and print from any device, anywhere. 1 #### Connect Your Printer Plug in an [ezeep Hub](/ezeep-hub?hsLang=en) or install the ezeep Connector at any location. Your printers are online and cloud-managed in minutes, whether they're at HQ, a branch office, or someone's home. 2 #### Add Your People Sync users from your directory (for example Entra ID) so access follows identity and groups. Assign the right printers automatically, without manual printer mapping every time someone joins, moves teams, or changes locations. 3 #### Print from Any Device Home office, headquarters, hotel lobby. Users pick a printer and print from any device. No drivers, no VPN, no "which printer am I connected to?" calls to IT. Meet the ezeep Hub ## Make Any Home or Office Printer Cloud-Ready The ezeep Hub connects your existing printers to the ezeep Cloud - so remote and hybrid employees can print to on-site devices from anywhere, without leaving a PC running next to the printer. [Learn More About the ezeep Hub](https://www.ezeep.com/ezeep-hub?hsLang=en) Work Environments ## Designed for Every Kind of Environment #### Home Office Printing Employees print documents, customer material, and daily paperwork from their home setup without configuring drivers or connecting to the office network. #### In Office Printing When hybrid workers come into HQ, their assigned printers are already there. Same login, same dialog, same experience as working from home. #### Coworking & Shared Space Teams working flexibly can print to shared space printers, send jobs to their home office printer, or release jobs at the main office. #### Virtual Desktop Printing Whether users connect through Azure Virtual Desktop, Citrix, or Horizon, they get one consistent printing experience across every session and location. Security & Compliance ## Controlled, Protected Printing Outside the Office Remote printing doesn't have to mean anything goes. ezeep supports a protected, controlled approach. #### Encrypted Print Delivery Print jobs are encrypted end-to-end from device to printer. No unencrypted data crosses the network, and each tenant's traffic is fully isolated. Encrypted Print Delivery #### Identity-Based Access Printer access is governed by identity, not network location. Users authenticate through Entra ID or Google, and IT controls which printers each person or group can reach. Identity-Based Access #### No Local Data Left Behind Print data is processed in the cloud and delivered directly to the printer. Nothing is cached or stored on the user's device or local network. No Local Data Left Behind #### Visibility & Audit Trails IT can see who printed what, when, and on which printer. Activity is logged centrally for compliance, cost allocation, and usage governance.

"ezeep allows us to continue to utilize remote staff to process transactions and get the documents in the hands of those who physically process the workflow."

[Read More Customer Stories](https://www.ezeep.com/customer-stories?hsLang=en) ## Frequently Asked Questions Curious about how it all works? Here's everything you wanted to know about ezeep's cloud printing solution! ##### How does cloud printing work for remote and hybrid employees? [Cloud printing](/learn/how-cloud-printing-works?hsLang=en) routes print jobs through a secure cloud service instead of relying on local print servers or VPN connections. With ezeep, remote employees send print jobs from [any device](/use-cases/cross-platform-printing?hsLang=en) to any printer connected through the ezeep Hub or Connector, regardless of whether they are at home, in the office, or at a [coworking space](/industries/coworking?hsLang=en). No drivers are installed on the user's device, and no VPN is required. ##### Do remote employees need to install printer drivers to print from home? No. ezeep uses [cloud rendering](/learn/how-cloud-printing-works?hsLang=en) to process print jobs entirely in the cloud, which means [no printer drivers are installed](/features/driverless-printing?hsLang=en) or managed on any user device. Employees print from [Windows](/use-cases/windows-printing?hsLang=en), [Mac](/use-cases/mac-ios-printing?hsLang=en), [Chromebook](/use-cases/chromeos-printing?hsLang=en),[iOS, or Android](/use-cases/mobile-byod-printing?hsLang=en) without IT needing to configure anything on their machine. This eliminates one of the most common sources of remote printing support tickets. ##### Can employees working from home print to printers at the office? Yes. When an [ezeep Hub](/ezeep-hub?hsLang=en) is connected at the office, remote employees can send print jobs to office printers from anywhere. The document is rendered in the cloud and delivered to the office printer as if the employee were on-site. This is commonly used by legal firms, financial services teams, and other organizations where documents need to be printed and physically dispatched from a central location. ##### Does ezeep work with Azure Virtual Desktop, Citrix, and Windows 365? Yes. ezeep integrates natively with [Azure Virtual Desktop](/use-cases/azure-virtual-desktop-printing?hsLang=en), [Windows 365 Cloud PC](/use-cases/windows-365-printing?hsLang=en), [Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops](/use-cases/citrix-printing?hsLang=en), and [Omnissa Horizon](/use-cases/omnissa-horizon-printing?hsLang=en). It replaces unreliable printer redirection with a direct cloud printing path that delivers faster output, consistent formatting, and no driver conflicts inside the virtual session. IT manages all printer assignments centrally through the ezeep console. ##### How does ezeep keep remote printing secure without a VPN? ezeep encrypts all print data in transit using TLS 1.3 and processes print jobs through its cloud infrastructure hosted on Microsoft Azure. Print data is deleted immediately after the job completes. The ezeep Hub uses only outbound connections to the cloud, meaning no inbound ports need to be opened on the local network. User access is controlled through identity-based authentication via Azure ID or Google, and [Pull Printing](/features/pull-printing?hsLang=en) ensures documents are only released when the authorized user is at the printer.
