Enable hub mode for printers
No local printer on the iPad — instead, print jobs via Print Hub (browser) on another device.
If printers are connected to a central computer (Mac mini, PC) and all iPads in the service are to print via this computer, use Hub mode. Instead of going directly from the iPad to the printer, the receipt goes to the cloud, from where the Print Hub in the browser receives it and forwards it to the local printers.
Detect Hub Mode
When hub mode is active, you will see a "Hub mode active" banner at the top of the printer list (Settings → Printers). Local printers are optional in this configuration—the server primarily sends all receipts to the hub.
Print Hub Setup (Browser)
On a PC or Mac, open hub.service.de in your browser, log in with the same account, and start the Print Hub. Connect your local printers to this device (USB/LAN) — the hub will detect them automatically.
Hub mode is ideal for businesses with many iPads and a centralized printing infrastructure. Advantages: a central point for printer maintenance, no Wi-Fi discovery hassle, and consistent operation.
With Hub Mode enabled and the Hub Browser disabled, print jobs are temporarily stored in the cloud (PrintJobs) and printed later once the Hub is back online. No receipts are lost.
