Express PrintingRouting
- Kiosk orders are immediately released and printed using a directly-attached printer connected to the kiosk, such as a dye-sub.
- Only order metadata (no photos) will be seen in myLab, Print 50 and Lab 50.
- Images are not saved in the cloud and will not be viewable via myLab.
- Ideal for a while-you-wait service.
Local PrintingRouting
- Kiosk orders are imported by Print 50 over the LAN from the kiosk directly, resulting in faster transfer times.
- Images are not saved in the cloud and will not be viewable via myLab. Only order metadata (no photos) will be visible in myLab or at Print 50 / Lab 50 stations other than the station where the order is imported. Orders cannot be routed or fulfilled elsewhere.
- Ideal if you get many large orders or if your location has limited internet bandwidth.
Cloud PrintingRouting
- Both images and order data are uploaded to cloud platform and then downloaded by Print 50 / Lab 50.
- Orders can be rerouted to or downloaded by any Print 50 / Lab 50 station. Photos are also available to view and download from myLab for a minimum of 45 days.
- Transmission time will depend on the size of the order and the upload/download speed at your location. You will be able to print the order as soon as the first image is fully downloaded.
- Necessary for off-site filled products.
- Ideal if you often need to re-route orders or use myLab for pulling an image.
