About this brew

As you’re reading this, we're well underway with developing the PaperCut Hive embedded app for Konica Minolta MFPs. The app is going to bring most of PaperCut Hive's cloud print management features right onto the Konica Minolta MFP's touch panel, including:
- card-based authentication
- user self-sign up
- secure print release and Find-Me printing
- copy, scan, and fax tracking
- setup and batch deployment
- ...plus more in Phase II, like one-click scanning

About the brewers (aka the Product Engineering Team)
The Konica Minolta app is developed by one of the best teams in PaperCut (we're writing this of course!) because it's right at the intersection of IoT, Cloud, Microservices, and Single-Page HTML apps. Cool huh?
Atiq (the beard) is the most serious. Julian (the blue jumper) makes sure meetings are on time. According to Joe (the white t-shirt) Karen (The KM C224e standing behind us), who he used to live with for 4 months, is the funniest. We all like coffee.
What we`ve been up to so far?
See the timeline below. We'll update this from time to time so you can follow our progress.
