Driverless print server for legacy printers, profit goes to open-source

In plain words

This device connects older USB printers to any PC or smartphone wirelessly without requiring driver installation, using AirPrint and Mopria standards across Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. It supports most printers released before 2018, with drivers running inside the device itself. Revenue from sales benefits open-source printing and scanning projects including CUPS, SANE, and AirSane, with profits directed toward improving and developing new drivers for the community.

Wireless printing for USB-only printers, with AirPrint and Mopria support

UoWPrint is a modern print server created to bring wireless capabilities to older printers, scanners, and all-in-one devices. Contrary to older-generation print server hardware or home routers with printer-sharing functions, UoWPrint does not require to install any printer-specific drivers or applications on your devices but uses universal standard drivers available in any contemporary operating system. The printer driver is running on the print server itself, freeing you from installing drivers on the PC. In other words, with UoWPrint you can use AirPrint and Mopria to print and scan over the network on your USB printer. UoWPrint is best compatible with older-generation consumer devices…from printserver.ink

  Printercow – Turn any thermal printer into an API endpoint2025 · printercow.com · ▲150

  I've always been fascinated by thermal printers – there's something magical about seeing text and images materialize on paper in seconds. But I found that working with them programmatically was always a pain. You either had to deal with ancient printer protocols or use clunky vendor-specific SDKs. So I built Printercow (https://printercow.com) – it turns any thermal printer into an HTTP endpoint with just one command. Technical details: - Supports any ESC/POS compatible printer (Epson, Star Micronics, etc.) - Handles paper widths from 58mm to 120mm - Automatic image dithering…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Tapflow 2.0▲1,125

  We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
