Using your own email or WebDAV account to print remotely. (Advanced users)

If you want to print remotely to your office or home printers, you can use the "Print Remotely" option using WePrint.

Note:This guide is for advanced users who wish to use their own email or WebDAV account.
We recommend using the much simpler "WePrint Cloud" setup which only takes a few steps.View


Quick Start Guide
  1. Download and install the free WePrint on your Mac or PC from here: https://esz.nz/wp
  2. We strongly recommend you set up a new email account in the WePrint settings. WePrint creates printer emails that sit in the inbox. If you use an existing account it may get cluttered with these emails.
    Create a new email account.
  3. Add the new email username and password to the "Print Remotely" tab in the Settings of WePrint. Choose your email account type in the menu.
  4. On your iPad/iPhone, tap on the Print button inside Save2PDF
  5. Tap on "Choose" and then tap on the green "Print Remotely" button
  6. Select your email account type and then enter your new email address and password and then tap on "Connect". You should now see your list of WePrint printers in the choose printer screen.



Generally, when you are in your local WiFi network Save2PDF will automatically find your WePrint server in your network and allow you to print straight away. If you are not in the same WiFi network as
the WePrint server, or you want to print via mobile data you can use the "Print Remotely" option in the WePrint settings.


Do not confuse the "Print Remotely" function with printing from an email account, we are simply using this email account as a transport method. If Save2PDF supports email, you can set up
your email accounts to print in "Email" section of the app on your iPhone/iPad

If you have an office network with a firewall that blocks email server access, you could use a WePrint Cloud or WebDAV server. During step 5. select the type drop down in the WePrint
settings to select WePrint Cloud or WebDAV.

When printing, make sure the "Server" field on the Print screen displays the server name starting with "Remote". WePrint doesn't need to be running to Print Remotely,
and it is generally not restricted by firewalls. WePrint can be started later to collect the printed documents, so is great when traveling.
WePrint does need to be running at some stage to collect the print jobs and print them.

If you have any issues with the set up then please see our Print Remotely troubleshooting section (View)
