BatchPrint - Batch Print Software for Windows
by SoftOrbits
Print a whole folder in one queue: PDF, Office, email and images, without opening a file.
🖨️ Batch Print Software sends a whole folder of documents to the printer in one queue, without opening a single one of them. Press Add files, or Add folder to pull in everything printable inside a directory and its subfolders, choose the printer and press Print. It works through the list on its own. More than fifty extensions go into one queue, from PDF and Word to Excel, images, email messages, HTML, XPS, RTF and plain text.
ℹ️ Windows itself gives up early here. Select more than fifteen files in Explorer and the Print command disappears from the context menu. What is left is opening every document, pressing Ctrl+P, waiting, closing it and starting over, which on a stack of invoices costs an afternoon.
ℹ️ Free to try. The trial prints ten files per run and adds one page at the end of each batch. Nothing else is held back. All fifty-odd formats open, every layout setting reaches the paper, the sheet estimate counts the real job and the run report is complete. A license lifts both limits.
👍 Top 🔟 reasons to choose Batch Print Software
- 1️⃣ No fifteen-file wall. One queue takes a hundred documents and prints them in the order the list shows, which is the order you set.
- 2️⃣ Batch Print Software counts pages, color pages against black and white and total sheets before the job starts. On a run of 220 pages that number is the difference between a full paper tray and a stop halfway through.
- 3️⃣ Word and Excel documents print even when Microsoft Office is not installed. The app reads DOCX and XLSX on its own, with headings, tables, column widths and embedded pictures.
- 4️⃣ Email goes on paper as mail, not as raw source. EML and MSG files print with their attachments, and a PDF inside a ZIP archive prints straight from the archive, with no extra step of yours.
- 5️⃣ Per-file settings. One drawing in the batch can go duplex on A3 while everything around it stays A4 and one-sided.
- 6️⃣ Batch Print Software reports a corrupt or password-protected file in the log and moves on, so one bad document does not kill a queue of ninety-nine good ones.
- 7️⃣ Duplex, four pages on one sheet, page ranges, copies, margins, a custom paper size and a watermark, applied to the whole queue at once.
- 8️⃣ A cover sheet in front of each folder and an end sheet after it, so a printed bundle stays sorted on the tray.
- 9️⃣ Batch Print Software runs from the tray and can pause when the printer queue fills up, so a long job does not tie up the screen or the device.
- 🔟 Every run leaves a record of each file, the printer it went to, the time and the outcome. That is the page to open when someone asks a week later whether the bundle actually went out.
❓ Who needs Batch Print Software
- ✅ Accounting and back office. Invoices, statements and delivery notes at the end of a period, where the folder is known in advance and only the printing takes the day.
- ✅ Law firms and agencies putting together a case bundle, where the order of the documents is part of the work and cannot be left to chance.
- ✅ Engineering offices and print rooms sending a folder of drawings and specifications, with paper size and duplex set per file rather than per click.
- ✅ Schools and universities printing worksheets, exam papers and class sets, where the same folder goes to the printer again every term.
❓ Frequently asked questions
❔ Can I print all files in a folder at once?
💡 Yes. Add the folder and Batch Print Software enumerates the printable files inside it, subfolders included, and puts them in one queue.
❔ Do the documents print in the order I need?
💡 Batch Print Software prints them in the order shown in the list, and the list is yours to sort and rearrange before the run starts.
❔ Can it print Word files on a machine without Word?
💡 Yes. DOCX and XLSX are read by the app itself, with headings, tables, page breaks and embedded pictures. Installed Office or LibreOffice is used first when it is there, because the native layout is what the author saw on screen.
❔ How much paper will this job take?
💡 The list shows pages per file and the total, split into color and black and white, before anything reaches the printer. A folder of 137 invoices that comes to 214 sheets is a number on screen, not a discovery at the tray.
❔ What happens to a file that will not print?
💡 It is reported with a reason and skipped, and the rest of the batch still prints. Broken and password-protected documents do not stop the queue.
