Chicago Startup PrintWithMe Counts on Print Demand from Coffee Lovers

A Chicago-based startup aims to let you print and retrieve documents when and where you pick up your latte.

PrintWithMe says it’s putting its printers in coffee shops, coworking spaces and other places where customers might express demand for a printer.

The company says users access its printing devices through cloud-based technology that encrypts and later deletes the documents.

Users send a document as an attachment to a printer’s email address, then pay online via a link that the printer generates, the company says. Payment triggers the print job.
