Printing on Surface & Copilot+ PCs: No Drivers Needed

Written by silkek | August 22, 2025

The new ezeep Print App makes Windows on ARM devices like Surface and Copilot+ PCs instantly ready to print. Forget about printer drivers; this solution ensures your advanced hardware can handle basic print tasks without hassle.

Why AI-first PCs are a Breakthrough

2025 marks a turning point with the rise of AI-first PCs, including Microsoft’s new Copilot+ line and the latest Surface devices. These machines use ARM processors, a chip design already proven in smartphones, now transforming laptops.

ARM processors offer significant advantages:

  • Battery life that lasts all day
  • Whisper-quiet, fanless operation
  • Super-thin, lightweight designs
  • AI features built directly into the hardware

These benefits make ARM-based devices highly attractive for mobile workers, IT leaders, and coworking members who value portability and efficiency.

The Printing Challenge with ARM Devices

Despite their advanced features, ARM-based laptops often struggle with a fundamental task: printing. The core issue is driver availability.

  • Most printer manufacturers do not provide ARM-compatible drivers.
  • Microsoft’s standard drivers offer limited support, covering only a small selection of printers and functionalities.

This creates a situation where advanced hardware is hindered by outdated printing infrastructure.

How ezeep Solves ARM Printing Issues

ezeep provides a straightforward solution for printing on ARM64 devices. Its Print App eliminates the need for local, device-specific drivers.

Instead of relying on drivers installed on the device, ezeep processes print jobs in the cloud using the original manufacturer drivers. This means your Surface, Copilot+ PC, or any other ARM-based laptop can print to any printer without compatibility concerns. This cloud-based approach also makes the solution future-proof; as new ARM generations emerge, printing will continue to function without interruption.

The Impact of Driver-Free Printing for ARM

For IT Teams

ARM adoption no longer faces the significant hurdle of printer compatibility. IT teams can deploy new devices with confidence, knowing printing will just work from day one.

For Coworking Operators

Members can print from any device, whether it's an Intel laptop, a Surface, or the latest Copilot+ PC. This flexibility enhances the user experience and reduces support requests.

For Employees

Employees avoid the frustration of troubleshooting printing issues. Their new laptops will simply print, allowing them to focus on productive work.

Printing Experiences: Before and After ezeep

Before ezeep

In a coworking space, a member with a new Copilot+ PC discovers they can't print. This leads to support calls, troubleshooting, and wasted time for both the user and IT staff.

After ezeep

The same member connects their device, sends a document to print, and continues their work without a second thought. Printing becomes a background process that just happens, without causing any disruption.

Conclusion

The widespread adoption of ARM-based Windows devices represents a significant shift in personal computing. These devices are lightweight, intelligent, and designed for the AI era.

However, the transition to this future should not be stalled by basic necessities like printing. With the ezeep Print App for ARM64, Surface and Copilot+ PCs are instantly ready for business – no drivers, no limits, and no headaches.
