01732 759725 26 WHAT'S NEW ezeep integrates with Zapier ThinPrint has integrated its cloud printing solution ezeep with Zapier. The integration enables companies to equip their apps with an automatic print workflow in just a few clicks or what are known as zaps. And all without any programming knowledge required. ezeep can also serve in businesses as a replacement for Google Cloud Print, which is no longer available. “It’s incredibly simple,” said Christoph Hammer, Senior Vice President Cloud Services at ThinPrint. “Whether it’s software for creating forms, an app for orders or invoices, or cloud storage. Not just these scenarios, but also the over 3,000 apps available at Zapier, can be used for printing with ezeep in just a few clicks or zaps. And with this integration, we’re offering an important feature for corporate workflows.” www.ezeep.com Focus On: What’s New Great visual performance Sharp NEC Display Solutions Europe has extended its dvLED line up, adding the E ‘Essential’ LED prepared bundles and the ‘Fine pitch Enterprise Eco’ solutions for LED customised video walls.
