Print shops & signage
Live order status from proof approval to ready for collection.
No app for customers. Ready in 60 seconds.
At a glance
QRdy for print shops gives every customer a live job status page from order placement to ready for collection. A QR code at the counter links each job to a page your team updates as it moves through proofing, printing, and finishing, so customers know exactly where their order is without calling.
Why it matters
Print jobs run through multiple stages and customers have no visibility into where their order stands. QRdy gives every customer a live page so they track their job the way they track a parcel.
The real problem
Print jobs go wrong when communication breaks down between stages. A customer assumed the proof was approved. Your team was waiting for sign-off. The deadline passes. No one was at fault, the information just wasn't reaching both sides at the right time. Even when jobs run smoothly, customers call to check progress, which pulls staff away from the press. QRdy gives every customer a live status page from order to collection. Your team taps through proofing, approval, printing, finishing, and ready, the customer's page updates at each stage. Proof-ready prompts them to review without a phone call. Print in progress means they stop wondering. Ready for collection means they come in. The whole job runs smoother because both sides have the same current information at every point in the process.
How it works
The customer places their order and scans the QR at the counter. Your team taps through each production stage and the customer checks the page instead of calling to ask where things are.
Order received
Customer places order. Live tracking page created.
No app. No account. The job is tracked from the moment it is logged.
Proof ready for approval
Customer reviews and approves on their page.
The proof stage becomes a prompt rather than a phone call.
Printing in progress
Job on the press. Status visible in real time.
That reassurance stops the mid-job check-in calls that slow down the press.
Ready for collection
Customer notified the moment it's done.
No guessing, no early arrivals, no finished work sitting uncollected.
What your shop and customers see
The dashboard shows your team every active print job and its current stage. The live page gives each customer real-time progress without them calling between proof approval and collection.
Dashboard
Staff can see every active job, update each production stage with one tap, and let the page handle customer communication while the press keeps running.
Customer-facing live page
Customers want to know their job is in queue, in production, or ready, without calling between every stage. The live page gives them that at every point.
Active tracker
The live page shows the current production stage and order details so customers know whether their job is proofing, printing, or ready for collection.
Progress timeline
Customers can see which stages are complete and where the job is right now. Useful for multi-day jobs or orders with a proofing approval step.
Controls and sharing
Customers can copy their tracking link and cancel if plans change, all without calling the shop or coming in early to check.
Completed state
When the job is done and quality-checked, the page switches to a clear ready state so the customer comes in to collect at exactly the right time.
Custom to your workflow
QRdy lets you name each stage to match your production workflow. You might use order received, proof sent, proof approved, printing, finishing, and ready. Or a simpler flow for quick same-day print runs.
Why QRdy
Common questions
How does QRdy work for a print shop?
Customers place an order, scan a QR code at your counter or follow a link, and get a live status page linked to their specific print job. As your team works through each stage, order received, proof sent, proof approved, printing, finishing, ready for collection, one tap updates the page. Customers track progress from wherever they are and come in only when the page shows their job is ready. For multi-day jobs, the live page stops the daily calls asking where the order is at.
Do customers need to download an app?
No. Customers scan the QR code at your counter and the live status page opens in their browser immediately, no app download, no account, no signup. Print shop customers range from individual walk-ins to business clients placing regular orders. QRdy works for both. The check-in is a scan and a name entry, which takes under ten seconds and works on any smartphone browser.
Can it handle same-day and multi-day print jobs?
Yes. QRdy works for any job length. A same-day business card order gets the same live page as a multi-day large-format print job. The page stays active for the full duration and customers can check status anytime. For jobs with a proofing stage, the live page keeps customers informed through each step, they see when the proof is ready for review, when printing has started, and when the final job is ready for pickup, without any individual messages from your team.
