Cloud PC Printing for Windows 365 Without Print Servers

Windows 365 delivers persistent virtual desktops from anywhere, but printing shouldn't pull users back to VPNs, unreliable printer redirection, or driver conflicts. ezeep provides cloud printing that works across Cloud PC sessions, home offices, and branch locations on any device.

Printer Redirection Breaks in Cloud PC Sessions

Redirection is disabled by default and once enabled, it's all-or-nothing. Every local printer shows up, printer names change every session, and ERP and CRM apps that depend on consistent assignments break.

Universal Print Doesn't Replace Print Servers

Universal Print requires compatible hardware or a connector (which is just a print server by another name), additional per-user licensing, and Entra ID-joined endpoints. Run it alongside redirection and you have two parallel print paths with two sets of problems.

Users Lose Print Options in Cloud PCs

Redirected printers frequently block tray selection, duplex, and color settings. Drivers in Cloud PC environments create the same conflicts as on-premises, except now they're harder to troubleshoot remotely.

Don't Undo Cloud-First with Print Servers

You moved to Windows 365 to reduce infrastructure. Adding print servers back defeats the purpose.

ezeep connects printers directly to your Cloud PC environment through the cloud. No hardware to rack, no VPNs, no maintenance windows.

Printers That Show Up When Users Do

Nobody should spend the first five minutes of a Cloud PC session hunting for a printer.

ezeep syncs with Microsoft Entra ID and assigns printers by role and location, so the right printers appear instantly when users sign in.

Print Wherever Work Happens

A Cloud PC follows the user. Printing should too.

ezeep lets users print from their Cloud PC session to whatever's nearby: the office MFP, a home inkjet, or a mobile device on iOS or Android. One experience, no network tricks.

Full Print Options, No Driver Conflicts

Printer redirection often blocks tray selection, duplex, and color settings. Drivers in Cloud PC environments create same conflicts, except now they're harder to troubleshoot remotely.

ezeep handles all rendering in the cloud, so Cloud PC images stay driver-free and every option the printer supports is available in every session.

Nothing Prints Until Someone's There

Pull Printing holds every job until the user walks up and authenticates by phone, badge, or PIN.

Sensitive documents don't sit in trays, and pages that were never needed don't get printed at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft offers printer redirection through RDP and Universal Print, but each has significant limitations. Redirection depends on network conditions and frequently drops print properties and finishing options. Universal Print requires compatible printers or connectors, additional licensing, and Entra ID-joined endpoints. Running both creates two parallel print paths with different failure modes for IT to manage.

Yes. Users can print from their Cloud PC session to any locally connected printer at home, in the office, or at remote locations, with full print properties and finishing options. Mobile printing from iOS and Android is also supported through the ezeep app.

No. ezeep handles all rendering in the cloud using manufacturer drivers, so Cloud PC images stay completely driver-free. No driver installs, no update cycles, no compatibility conflicts, and no performance impact on sessions.

ezeep syncs directly with Entra ID for automatic user and group synchronization. Printer assignments follow your existing directory structure and security groups, so when someone joins a team or changes roles, their printer access updates automatically.

Yes. Unlike printer redirection where names change with every session, ezeep assigns printers with consistent names and full print properties. Applications that depend on fixed printer assignments work reliably without manual reconfiguration at each login.
