Drop in front of your existing host print stream. The host keeps printing as it always has.

A modern replacement for legacy print servers, form generators, and label producers. Press accepts the output your existing systems already produce — host print streams, line-printer data, label specs, form definitions — and routes them to modern destinations with a real audit trail.
The actual shapes the product produces — generated from your own services, not hand-built for a demo.
Every capability below ships in the preview build.
Drop in front of your existing host print stream. The host keeps printing as it always has.
Version-controlled, previewable. Replace decades of opaque print-server configuration with reviewable templates.
Network printer, PDF archive, email, S3, webhook. One output, many targets, per-rule routing.
See every print job — queued, rendered, delivered, failed. Replay and reroute on demand.
Who printed what, where it went, who approved any reprint. Signed receipts per job.
Multi-byte, mixed-direction, and gendered language handled end-to-end.
Press accepts the print stream the legacy system already emits. No upstream change.
Form and label templates render the data. Previews, diffs, and approvals are first-class.
Rules send output to the right target — printer, archive, email, downstream system.
Queue, latency, errors, retries — on one in-app surface. No separate print dashboard.
Every job, every page, every reroute is signed and queryable. Reprints leave a trail.
Control plane and data plane ship as separate images — size each for your traffic.
