Use Cases

Print fulfillment, automated by conversation

See how e-commerce and fulfillment teams use AI agents with Print Autopilot to route print jobs, upload documents, and keep physical order processing running smoothly.

Order-Triggered Label Printing

A new order comes in through your chatbot. Your AI Agent retrieves the shipping details, generates the shipping label PDF, lists Print Autopilot queues to find the label printer, and uploads the file. The label prints automatically at the warehouse. Zero manual steps between order placement and label creation.

On-Demand Document Printing for Customer Requests

A customer asks for a physical copy of their insurance policy document. Your AI Agent retrieves the policy PDF, identifies the nearest office print queue in Print Autopilot, and uploads the document for printing. The office staff picks up the printed document and mails it. The customer gets their request handled within minutes of asking.

Batch Print Queue Routing for Fulfillment Teams

Your fulfillment manager asks the AI Agent to process all pending print jobs. The agent lists active Print Autopilot queues, checks which ones are online, and routes each pending document to the appropriate printer based on document type. Shipping labels go to the label printer, invoices to the office printer, and marketing inserts to the color printer. Fulfillment stays organized.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent upload a file to a print queue in Print Autopilot?

The agent uses Print Autopilot's Upload File endpoint to send a PDF or image to a temporary R2 storage bucket. From there, Print Autopilot processes the file and sends it to the designated printer queue. The agent handles the upload automatically when a print job is triggered during conversation.

What file types can the agent send to Print Autopilot for printing?

Print Autopilot primarily accepts PDF files for printing, which covers most document types including invoices, labels, marketing materials, and forms. The agent stages the file in Print Autopilot's temporary storage, and the printer processes it based on its queue configuration.

Can the agent select different printers for different types of documents?

Yes. The agent lists all available Print Autopilot queues and can route documents based on type. You can train the agent to send shipping labels to your label printer, invoices to the office printer, and posters to the large-format printer. Routing logic is configurable in the agent's conversation flow.

Does Tars store the files uploaded to Print Autopilot?

No. Files are uploaded directly to Print Autopilot's temporary R2 storage during the conversation. Tars passes the file through to Print Autopilot and does not retain copies. The temporary storage is managed by Print Autopilot according to their retention policies.

What happens if a printer queue is offline when the agent tries to print?

The agent lists available queues first and checks their status. If the target queue is unavailable, the agent informs the user and suggests alternative active queues. The file can be rerouted to a working printer to avoid fulfillment delays.

Can I filter print queues by location or name with the agent?

Yes. The List Queues endpoint supports a name filter parameter. The agent can search for queues containing keywords like 'Warehouse', 'Office', or 'Label' to narrow down the right printer for the current job.

How is using Tars with Print Autopilot different from managing printers manually?

Manual print management requires logging into the Print Autopilot dashboard, selecting files, and choosing printers. With Tars, the AI agent automates the entire workflow within a conversation. Orders trigger print jobs without any human navigating the dashboard.

What Print Autopilot credentials does the integration require?

You need your Print Autopilot API key, which is provided when you set up API access in your Print Autopilot account. This key authenticates all queue listing and file upload operations. You can regenerate it from your account settings if needed.
