Integrate PDFPrint with SharePoint or OneDrive to Print PDF Files Stored in the Cloud
Meta Description:
Learn how to print PDF files directly from SharePoint or OneDrive using VeryPDF PDFPrint Command Line no PDF viewer required.
Every file was a battle until I figured this out
I used to waste so much time every time a PDF needed printing.
The routine was always the same:
Download from SharePoint.
Open in a PDF viewer.
Choose a printer.
Hope the layout didn't break.
Print. Repeat.
Now multiply that by 50 documents a day.
This used to crush my morningsespecially when the deadlines were tight and I had to print updated files from OneDrive too.
The tipping point came when I accidentally printed the wrong version of a client contract... twice.
That's when I went hunting for a better way.
The tool that changed my workflow
I found VeryPDF PDFPrint Command Line by accidentsomeone in a tech forum mentioned it.
I downloaded it. Tried it. Loved it.
It's a command-line tool (yes, a DOS-style interface) that lets you print PDFs directly to any printer, including network printers, without opening them in Adobe or any viewer.
Even better?
You can pass in cloud URLs from SharePoint, OneDrive, or any HTTP/FTP source, and it'll fetch and print the file. No download needed.
This was huge for me.
Who is this for?
If you:
-
Work with SharePoint or OneDrive a lot
-
Handle bulk PDF printing daily
-
Want to automate or streamline document workflows
-
Are in law, HR, finance, logistics, or admin roles
This is your kind of tool.
It's made for IT folks, operations teams, and even solo consultants like me who just want stuff to workwithout clicking around like it's 2005.
What makes PDFPrint so effective?
Here's where it shines:
Print directly from the cloud
You can do this:
Boom. File prints instantlyno downloading, no viewer.
OneDrive, Dropbox, FTP, internal web servers? All good.
Batch print multiple files
I run this simple script daily:
Where files.txt
is a list of cloud-based PDF URLs.
It grabs them, prints them, and moves on.
I've saved hoursliterally.
Handles the quirks most tools choke on
Old printers?
Encrypted PDFs?
Weird paper sizes?
PDFPrint has switches for all that:
-
Raster mode for legacy drivers
-
Password support for protected docs
-
Custom tray and bin selection
It even lets you merge print jobs, add watermarks, or scale pages dynamically.
Smart features that save you mental load:
-
Skip viewer prompts
-
Pick trays or paper sizes from the command line
-
Auto-orient pages
-
Handle duplex printing
-
Set DPI, resolution, and even margins
It feels like having a printer whisperer in your toolbox.
Real example from last week
Our HR team uploaded a batch of onboarding PDFs to a shared OneDrive folder.
Normally, I'd manually download and print all 23.
Instead, I ran:
Job done in under 3 minutes.
While sipping coffee.
This tool solved real-world headaches
No more mismatched layouts.
No more clicking 17 times to print one file.
No more missing documents because someone forgot to download the latest version.
I'd recommend VeryPDF PDFPrint to anyone who needs to print PDFs from the cloud regularly.
