Creating hold queues
Create myQueue hold queues in PriApps CloudPrint, so users' print jobs are held securely in your cloud storage until they release them at a printer.
A myQueue is a personal hold queue for each user. It's an IPP print queue rather than a print driver, which gives your organization a modern, more secure way to print. When a user prints to a myQueue, the job is held securely in your organization's cloud storage until the user releases it at a printer or MFP managed by PriApps CloudPrint, using the PriApps MFP app, the PriApps smartphone app or the card reader supplied by PriApps.
PriApps CloudPrint creates your first myQueue when your organization is onboarded. PriApps recommends creating more than one, to spread the load and improve performance, and deploying each one to a different group of users, typically by location or site.
Before you begin
