Will there be a SMB SKU for universal print? While printing is down, I can't see how a SMB can function using universal print when each employee only receives 5 print jobs per month? I would like to use it for smaller companies but with the limit set so low, it doesn't pay.

- Issa_KhouryJul 21, 2021Iron ContributorHi Tracy. Thanks for the feedback. Can you please provide more information about the situation you are seeing with smaller companies? Also for completeness, you probably know there are the add-on pack that can be purchased to increase the limit. In addition, the 5 prints per user per month are pooled. Some people don’t print at all in a given month leaving more capacity for others.
- GlenntjaJul 21, 2021Brass ContributorThis way of thinking is flawed and makes it needlessly complex As outlined above, it should be streamlined This is how it should be Solution #1 Business Premium includes a partial licence for Universal Print, however it's limited to printing on the devices with the Connector installed, and you cannot print across the internet Universal Printing SKU includes the full product for $1,5 per user per month and includes unlimited printing with full integration and access to print across the internet Solution #2 Business Premium includes the full version at no extra cost, increasing said SKU's value and the adoption As it stands now, no sane business, should make use of Universal Print as the licencing makes it needlessly complex and there is no killer feature - You really should consider making it easier, or giving an option where you do not need to consider purchasing 500, 1000, 10000, 100000 print jobs - Which none of your competitors are doing (Printix and Uniflow Online for example)

We had about 2000-2500 deliveries per day. 70Windows users, 40 users working in the storage. Each caused one or two jobs for stock commision, a job for a packaging list, and one or two jobs for the invoice as there is one invoice for the customer and the other one or more for the buyer association that's common for kitchen stuff. Yes they love their freaking paper. I managed the printer fleet, the zebra direct print labels the toner and paper supply. 5 prints per user per months sounds like a nice idea in a paperfree office. Maybe we have some serious local issues with that in Germany but for
