PrintMe vs PaperCut Hive

The free PrintMe app lets you print from your mobile device to any of the thousands of locations that have PrintMe-enabled printers, including hotels, airports, and retail locations where print services are offered. Note: The PrintMe service is offered by businesses to their customers. Printers for consumer household use are not compatible with the PrintMe service. Establishing a free account is quick and easy – only an email address is required. With the PrintMe app, print files uploaded from your mobile device as well as files you already uploaded to the PrintMe service that are associated with your email address. Using the PrintMe service is free; however, while some printing locations offer complimentary printing for guests, other businesses charge a fee for printing. Location Services • Uses current GPS location to find the nearest PrintMe-enabled location. Submitting Files • Upload documents and images via "share" functionality. • Supports PDF, Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher), images (BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG, TIFF) and text documents. • Email documents to print@printme.com Document Management • See list of all files you uploaded to the PrintMe service. • Documents are automatically deleted in 24 hours.

PaperCut Hive makes printing convenient, responsible, and secure in your organization. We're all for flexibility. This app gives you the option to securely release your print jobs using your mobile phone. Of course, you can also release your job at the MFD/Printer touch screen as well. This mobile app just gives you one more option, and a touch-free one at that! To get the most out of this app, make sure you have an approved email invitation to use your organization's printers & MFPs. To release prints using your phone, simply tap your phone on an NFC sticker on the printer, scanning a QR code, or selecting the printer's name from a list. Did you forget to double-side the document? No problem, the PaperCut Hive app will remind you and allow you to make those changes on your way to the printer. PaperCut Hive makes it easy to print from all your devices including desktops, laptops, Chromebooks, and of course your iOS phone. See! You can use your phone for work too! Here’s how it works: - You’ll receive an invitation from your organization - It will guide you through the installation of this app as well as apps on your computers and other devices - You will then be able to select ‘PaperCut Printer’ when printing from any of your devices - This app also allows you to view your print jobs and securely collect your documents at any printer/MFD in your organization - Simply walk up to the printer and tap the NFC stickers, scan a QR code, or use the MFD touch screen.
