## Beschreibung

PrintPilot automatically prints documents generated by other WordPress plugins.

When a supported plugin creates a document (for example an invoice, delivery note
or shipping label), PrintPilot can automatically send it to a configured printer—
without manual downloads or clicks.

PrintPilot does not create documents itself.

It simply detects when documents become available and forwards them to the printer
you selected.

This makes it ideal for WooCommerce stores, offices and organizations that need 
reliable, hands-off printing.

 * No frontend output
 * No document builders
 * No layout editors
 * Just automated printing

### How it works

 1. A supported plugin generates a document.
 2. PrintPilot detects the document.
 3. Your printing rules are applied.
 4. The document is sent to your configured printer.

Once configured, printing runs automatically in the background.

### Modules

PrintPilot integrates with other plugins through dedicated modules.

Each module connects PrintPilot to a specific plugin and allows PrintPilot to detect
documents created by that plugin.

All modules are included:
 – Assign a printer for documents generated by supported
plugins – Configure printer-specific options – Select document types and trigger
statuses where supported

## FAQ

### What exactly does PrintPilot do?

PrintPilot automatically sends documents to a printer as soon as they are created
by a supported plugin.

Example:

An invoice is generated in your WooCommerce shop  PrintPilot sends it directly to
your printer.

No manual download.
 No manual printing.

### Does PrintPilot create invoices or shipping labels?

No.

Invoices, delivery notes, shipping labels and other documents are created by other
plugins.

PrintPilot only handles the automatic printing.

### Do I need a cloud printing service?

Yes.

PrintPilot currently uses PrintNode to communicate with your printers.
 You need
an active PrintNode account and at least one configured printer.

### Does PrintPilot slow down my website?

No.

PrintPilot runs in the WordPress admin environment and does not add frontend scripts,
tracking or external requests unless a printing provider is configured.

### Can I choose which documents should be printed?

Yes.

You can configure which document types should be printed and which printer should
be used.

### How does duplicate protection work?

If “Print only once per order, status and document type” is enabled, PrintPilot 
prevents repeated jobs for the same combination:

 * same order
 * same status
 * same document type

Example:

An order changes to „processing“ and prints an invoice once.
 If the order later
returns to „processing“ again, the same invoice/status combination will not be printed
again while this protection is enabled.

### What happens if a printer is offline?

PrintPilot forwards the print job to the configured printing provider.

Queue handling and retry behavior depend on the provider (for example PrintNode).
