PrintDesk completely takes over the routine work in your print shop: Every order received via Shopify, WooCommerce or directly goes through all production stages automatically - from order confirmation to invoice. Without copy-paste. Without media breaks. Without errors.
Four key areas where PrintDesk completely replaces manual work and puts your operations on autopilot.
Orders from Shopify, WooCommerce or PrintDesk direct receipt are immediately recorded as structured print jobs - complete and error-free.
Offers, order confirmations, delivery notes and invoices are automatically generated and sent in the corporate design of your print shop.
Orders are automatically placed in the production queue, prioritized and handed over to the responsible employees or machines.
After production, shipping labels are generated, shipment information is sent to the customer and the invoice is automatically issued.
This is what a fully automated order flow looks like in PrintDesk - from the first customer order to the paid invoice.
As soon as an order is received in your Shopify or WooCommerce store, PrintDesk receives all relevant data in real time: customer information, product specifications, circulation quantity, print data and payment status. The order is created in a fully structured manner in PrintDesk – without an employee having to enter the data manually. Parallel entry from several shops is possible; PrintDesk consolidates all jobs into one central view.
Immediately after the order is created, PrintDesk automatically creates the order confirmation in the corporate design of your print shop and sends it to the customer by email. For offers that were created before the order was placed, they are also converted into an order at the push of a button. All documents – offer, order confirmation, delivery note, invoice – are generated based on the same order data, so consistency is guaranteed.
The order automatically appears in the production overview and is prioritized according to defined rules - by delivery date, product type or customer category. Employees can see at a glance which orders need to be processed next. Status changes (e.g. “In production”, “Ready to print checked”, “In shipping”) are recorded in PrintDesk and automatically reported back to the online shop and the customer.
After production is completed, PrintDesk automatically creates the invoice and sends it to the customer. For shipping, delivery notes are generated, tracking numbers are stored and shipping notifications are triggered. Open payments are recorded in the dunning process; PrintDesk can send automatic reminders after defined deadlines. The Order management offers a complete overview of payment status and open items at all times.
What PrintDesk customers specifically report – measurable improvements in three key areas.
These numbers are not created by efficiency measures on the side, but rather by the structural elimination of media breaks in the order process. Today, every time an employee transfers data from one email to another system, it takes time and carries the risk of an error. PrintDesk closes these gaps on the system side.
Your customers also benefit: faster order confirmations, automatic status updates and professional invoice documents measurably improve customer satisfaction. Read more about the possibilities Print shop digitization in our blog.
PrintDesk integrates natively with the leading e-commerce platforms. No programming knowledge required.
PrintDesk's Shopify and WooCommerce integrations are designed so you can set up without any IT knowledge. One API key, one click on “Connect” – and PrintDesk will automatically receive all new orders from that moment on. The product assignment (which shop variant corresponds to which print specification) is done once via an intuitive assignment interface.
For printing companies that do not operate their own online shop, PrintDesk functions completely as a Standalone printing solution. Jobs are created directly in PrintDesk, and the entire automated workflow takes effect from the moment they are created.
PrintDesk automates the entire order process: Shop orders are automatically imported, offers and order confirmations are created automatically, production steps are controlled and invoices are generated automatically. Manual data entry is completely eliminated.
Yes. PrintDesk can be used completely without shop integration (standalone operation). Orders can be created directly in PrintDesk. The automation then takes effect from the moment the order is created - document creation, production control and invoicing run just as automatically.
The basic configuration is usually completed within one working day. For the shop integration (Shopify or WooCommerce), plan an additional 2-4 hours. Our onboarding team will guide you through the setup and ensure that all product mappings and automation rules are configured correctly.
PrintDesk makes it possible to mark specific order types or order values for manual approval. The workflow then pauses at the defined point and waits for approval by an employee. This way you stay in control without having to forego automation.
