Dscoop launches the Automation Club (DAC) to help print service providers master AI, HP PrintOS integrations, and automated workflows through a collaborative community.
Dscoop has announced the official launch of the Dscoop Automation Club (DAC), a dedicated community designed to foster integration and connectivity within the HP PrintOS ecosystem. The initiative follows a sold-out AI Automation Hack-A-Thon and aims to provide print service providers (PSPs) and software partners with a collaborative platform to solve real-world production challenges through automation.
The DAC is positioned as a technical, integration-driven group rather than a traditional networking circle. It focuses on how different platforms such as MIS, storefronts, and production tools can communicate seamlessly. For instance, the club provides a framework for members to share expertise on connecting systems like PrintIQ with Infigo storefronts or integrating PrintOS SiteFlow to create a bi-directional data flow.
Bob Raus of HP emphasised the importance of this collaborative approach, stating, “At HP, we believe that integration is the foundation of automation. This club will accelerate the learning and adoption of automation tools, AI and more.” The club leverages existing HP infrastructure, including a wide range of APIs and SDKs, to help members scale their operations without starting from scratch.
Membership is currently open to those who attended recent Edge events, software partners, and DSCOOP members committed to the HP PrintOS ecosystem. While membership is free, the club requires a genuine commitment to sharing knowledge and contributing to the wider community. Early adopters will be granted “Founding Member” status as the group builds its initial wave of experts and partners.
Peter van Teeseling added, “The new Dscoop Automation Club provides a platform for learning, sharing and collaboration between HP, Dscoop members and the print industry’s leading software and hardware partners.”
The DAC will host regular sessions, including webinars and workshops driven by both leadership and PSPs who have successfully implemented automation. These events are designed to showcase practical integrations and provide direct lines to the developers shaping the future of print software. The inaugural webinar is scheduled for 23 April at 11 am EST, focusing on reflections from the recent Hack-A-Thon and the roadmap for the remainder of 2026.
