Secure Cloud Printing, Without the Infrastructure Risk
ezeep removes the attack surfaces that make traditional printing a security concern: local print servers, driver vulnerabilities, unattended output trays, and inbound network connections. What's left is encrypted, authenticated, and managed from the cloud.
Security Built Into the Architecture
These aren't add-on features. They're how ezeep works by default.
Encrypted End to End, No Inbound Connections
All print data is encrypted using TLS 1.3 from device to cloud and cloud to printer. The ezeep Hub uses outbound-only connections, so no inbound firewall ports are needed.
No Local Drivers, No PrintNightmare
ezeep renders jobs in the cloud, so no printer drivers are installed on endpoints. The attack vector behind PrintNightmare and the 29 subsequent spooler patches doesn't apply.
Pull Printing for Document Confidentiality
Jobs are held in the cloud until the user authenticates at the printer via QR code or RFID card. Nothing prints unattended, and nothing sits exposed on a shared tray.
Identity-Based Access Control
Users authenticate through Microsoft Entra ID or Google Workspace. Printer access follows group membership, and when someone leaves the organization, their access is revoked automatically.
Group-Based Permissions and Policies
Admins assign printers and capabilities like Pull Printing and local printer access per group. Users only see what their group allows, and policy changes apply instantly.
Audit Trails and Privacy-Friendly Reporting
Every job is logged with user, printer, page count, and timestamp. Reports can be anonymized for GDPR compliance, and webhooks push data to SIEM tools in real time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Curious about how it all works? Here's everything you wanted to know about ezeep's cloud printing solution!
How does ezeep protect against PrintNightmare and printer driver vulnerabilities?
ezeep renders print jobs in the cloud using a virtual printer driver (ThinPrint Output Gateway), so no manufacturer-specific drivers are installed on user devices. This eliminates the attack surface that PrintNightmare (CVE-2021-34527) and the 29 subsequent Windows Print Spooler vulnerabilities rely on. No drivers to update, no drivers to compromise, no Point and Print Restrictions to manage.
Is ezeep secure enough for regulated industries like healthcare and finance?
ezeep encrypts all print data in transit using TLS 1.3 (minimum TLS 1.2), uses outbound-only connectivity that eliminates inbound network exposure, and supports Pull Printing for secure document release at the printer. Print jobs are deleted from the server after successful delivery. GDPR compliance is built in, reporting can be anonymized, and ISO 27001 certification is in progress. For detailed controls and compliance documentation, see the Security and Compliance page.
What happens to print data after the job completes?
Print jobs are deleted from the server after successful delivery to the printer. Pull Printing jobs that are not released are automatically deleted after 72 hours. No documents are retained on local endpoints or in the cloud after completion. The ezeep Hub communicates using outbound-only connections, so no print data passes through inbound firewall ports.
How does Pull Printing prevent confidential documents from being exposed?
Pull Printing holds every job in a secure cloud queue until the user walks to a printer and authenticates via QR code scan or RFID/NFC card tap. Nothing prints until someone is standing at the device. This prevents sensitive documents from HR, legal, finance, and healthcare from sitting unattended on shared output trays. Pull Printing is available on Business and Enterprise plans.
Where is ezeep hosted and how is data residency handled?
ezeep runs on Microsoft Azure infrastructure. Print data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and jobs are deleted after successful delivery. For details on data residency regions, Azure compliance certifications, and the full security architecture, visit the dedicated Security and Compliance page.
Printing That Doesn't Compromise Security
No print servers. No inbound connections. No unattended documents. Cloud printing that's secure by design.
