CloudPRNT Next: Fast, Scalable Cloud Printing with MQTT
CloudPRNT Next is Star Micronics’ advanced remote cloud printing solution built on the MQTT protocol for faster, more efficient performance.
Faster, More Reliable Printing
Using lightweight MQTT messaging, CloudPRNT Next reduces latency and improves communication between cloud systems and printers, helping you complete print jobs faster and keep operations moving.
Remote Printing from Anywhere
Manage print tasks across multiple locations and devices from one central system. CloudPRNT Next makes it easy to handle receipts, orders, and labels—no matter where your staff or customers are.
Built for Scalability
Whether you’re running ten stores or a thousand, CloudPRNT Next keeps pace. MQTT’s efficiency allows you to manage a growing network of connected printers without compromising speed or reliability.
Expand Your Market
With CloudPRNT Next, retail stores and restaurants can expand their reach by incorporating online ordering into their operations. The enhanced remote printing capabilities provide a simpler way to manage online purchases, enabling businesses to reach larger markets effortlessly.
CloudPRNT was where it all began, introducing a groundbreaking way to print directly from the cloud to Star Micronics printers. With CloudPRNT, the printer communicates seamlessly with online ordering systems, storing and creating print jobs while keeping the printer’s status up to date. Orders are posted in a JSON format, and Star printers retrieve them at set intervals, making serverless, remote printing simple and efficient.
Supported Products
| Feature | CloudPRNT | CloudPRNT Next |
|---|---|---|
| Remote Printing | Print from anywhere via cloud-based systems, ideal for online ordering and remote operations. | Leverages MQTT protocol for enhanced remote printing, enabling faster communication and more reliable remote printing in high-demand environments. |
| Connection Type | Uses traditional HTTP protocol for communication between servers and printers. | Uses the MQTT protocol, offering a publish-subscribe model for faster, more efficient data transfer with reduced latency. |
| Bandwidth Efficiency | Operates via HTTP polling, requiring constant checks for updates, which uses more bandwidth. | Reduces bandwidth usage with the MQTT publish-subscribe model, sending data only when necessary. |
| Scalability | Supports cloud-based systems across multiple locations, allowing businesses to scale operations. | Optimized for scalability with MQTT, designed to handle large numbers of connected devices efficiently, ideal for multi-location businesses looking to expand seamlessly. |
| Reliability | Provides reliable remote printing, though subject to latency based on polling intervals. | Improves reliability through MQTT, ensuring faster communication even in high-demand and unstable network environments. |
| Energy Efficiency | Uses standard HTTP, which may increase energy consumption due to continuous polling. | Reduces energy consumption by limiting unnecessary data transmissions, helping prolong battery life in mobile or connected devices. |
| Specification | CloudPRNT | CloudPRNT Next |
|---|---|---|
| Functions | Enables users to print to Star printers directly through a cloud service or any online ordering service. | Supports high-demand remote printing with faster, more reliable cloud-based printing using the MQTT protocol, ideal for businesses with large-scale printing operations. |
| Hardware Configuration | A hardware extension of Star’s printer using a protocol to enable printing from remote servers. CloudPRNT is designed to be simple to implement, versatile, and secure. | Utilizes Star’s latest printer models, integrating MQTT technology for improved performance. It’s ideal for environments requiring real-time and dependable cloud printing. |
| Software Configuration | Compatible with all operating systems. | Supports all operating systems, with enhanced performance due to MQTT’s faster, more efficient data communication and reduced latency. |
| Data Specifications | All communication is handled via a single URL, which can be hosted by any web server. Clients (HI0X) will use an HTTP POST method to update device status and make requests at a fixed interval. The server will respond with instructions and details of available print jobs. | Utilizes the MQTT publish-subscribe model, minimizing bandwidth usage and reducing latency by transmitting data only when necessary, leading to faster, more efficient print job handling. |
