With End User Licensing, the application developer does not purchase an SDK, but instead registers FREE with Bachmann Software for a special End User Licensing key. This key is embedded in the application code and passed to our printing API's.

However, in order to unlock print engine functionality, each handheld user must purchase their own Print Engine from Bachmann Software and obtain a valid PrintBoy Print Engine registration code that matches their unique handheld. This end user Print Engine registration code is then entered by the user into our Print Setup program's Registration Screen, which then unlocks the print engine for use by 3rd party software applications.

Each end user copy of the PrintBoy Print Engine costs $19.99. (There are no volume discounts under the End User license model). Once again, the application developer incurs no cost under this licensing model, a developer license key is free with registration on our web site.

An End User Print Engine registration code unlocks the PrintBoy Print Engine for use by 3rd party applications which use ANY Edition of our PrintBoy SDK (Reports, HTML or Basic).

For very small deployments, the application developer may choose to purchase Print Engine licenses on behalf of each end user. However, a valid Print Engine registration code must still be obtained and entered on each handheld.
