So, i’m working on a small store for printing documents, but most of time i need to ask my customers to send me the pdf file through Bluetooth to my phone and so i print it from Epson app. The major issue is that doing that takes a LOT of time, probably because my phone has 1 gbRam, this could speed up if i connect it from USB to a desktop, but my usb ports are seriously damaged.

Any ideas? I’m grateful for your opinions.

I’ve planned to send files through email, as many android users on my town doesn’t even know they have an email (gmail bleh).

ps: this does have not to do with my previous question, but it’s terrifying that are people who don’t know they actually have an email account (gmail bleh).

    most people have whatsapp, while I really don’t condone using it, if you don’t care about their privacy, you could give them that option, probably have a good chance they use it. though you should still use email since alot of people must know how to use it.

    Usually people prepare USB flash drives when they want print something elsewhere, so you probably have to fix those ports, you probably can’t live without usb ports especially for this line of work.

      yeah, most of my costumers have a Whatsapp account (to not say all of them), i’m trying to avoid using Whatsapp for my store and their privacy, but sometimes using it is required to give an “out of the box” feel to them. Most people on my town don’t have any pc, as they’re a bit expensive on my country, even flash drives, that’s why i’m not too concerned about my usb ports for now, as it’s very uncommon around here, but i’ll fix them soon.

      Probably email is my main option for now, thank you for your suggestion, really appreciated it.
