SendFileToPrinter
Enable Easy and Secure Printing and Configuration From the Cloud

Cloud-based printing is not always as secure or streamlined as it should be. SendFileToPrinter API fixes that. SendFileToPrinter is a cloud-based REST API for Zebra Print DNA printers that enables simple and secure cloud-based printing via Zebra Data Services cloud. It also allows you to easily configure printer-to-cloud connectivity and fix configuration issues from anywhere with Zebra's Printer Setup Utilities.

This API offfers a secure connection from your printer to Zebra Data Services cloud through SSL/TLS, allowing you to safely print, send any content in a file format and configure settings to any Print DNA printer from any location.

SendFileToPrinter in Action

Here are just a few examples of the difference SendFileToPrinter can make with easier, secure printing:
