PrintGo Overview
PrintGo MCP server connects an MCP-compatible assistant to printers configured on a macOS, Linux, or Windows computer. It exposes tools for discovering printers, checking capabilities and status, printing supported content, and managing submitted jobs. Remote access uses a Cloudflare tunnel with bearer-password authentication, while local clients can launch it over stdio without a tunnel. Use it when an agent needs to print files or rendered markup and monitor the resulting queue jobs.
Primary Use Cases for PrintGo:
- Print invoices or reports from HTTPS-hosted PDFs
- Render Markdown or HTML documents and send them to a printer
- List local printers and inspect their supported settings
- Check or cancel submitted print jobs
