Web-to-Print Instant! gives print customers the ability to browse jobs, obtain the price for the respective quantity and to place the order.

Geoff Stephens, managing director of TimeHarvest, said the system would appeal to a "substantial audience of busy people with modest technical ability who just want to order what they need then get straight back to their main job".

He added: "If customers can get what they need easily and quickly then they’ll use the system and place orders, but if there are too many barriers they’ll just pick up the phone instead, often to a competitor who hasn’t put so many obstacles in their way!"

For existing customers of TimeHarvest’s DigiQuote-PRO hosted quoting system, the Instant! system is available for just under £3,000 or for a £145 a month rental fee.
