# Print Shop POS Software for Congo-Brazzaville

Print shops in Congo-Brazzaville require a POS system that manages custom print jobs, materials, quotes, deposits, and job-based billing accurately. EliteTeQ Print POS is built specifically for digital, offset, and commercial print shops to track orders, manage materials, and process payments from a single streamlined system.

Built for print shops in Congo-Brazzaville to quote jobs, track print orders, and manage payments efficiently.

## Problems We Solve

- **You Cannot See Which Jobs and Services Actually Make Money** — Business cards, banners, bulk flyers, binding — all keep the presses busy, but which services and job types actually profit after materials and time is a guess. You quote and chase work on instinct.
- **Every Job Is a Custom Quote Worked Out on a Calculator** — Size, paper stock, single or double-sided, colour, lamination, binding, quantity — each job is a fresh calculation. Done by hand at the counter it is slow and inconsistent, and one wrong number means you quote a price that loses money on the run.
- **"Can You Just Change..." After the Quote Is Agreed** — The customer bumps the quantity, switches to a heavier stock, or adds lamination after you have quoted. The job no longer matches the price agreed, and the final bill becomes a debate at pickup instead of a clean handover.
- **A Rush Deadline and No Clear View of the Queue** — Jobs move from artwork to proof to print to finishing to pickup, often against tight deadlines. Without a clear queue, a rush job gets buried, a deadline is missed, and a corporate client who needed it for an event walks away for good.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Convert the quote to an invoice that adjusts for approved changes, itemised so the customer sees why. *The final bill matches the agreed job, and pickup is a clean handover instead of a debate.*
- Build job pricing from size, stock, colour, finishing, and quantity so every quote is accurate and instant. *You quote fast and consistently, and stop pricing runs that quietly lose money.*
- Track every job through artwork, print, finishing, and pickup with deadlines visible on one queue. *Rush jobs stay on top, deadlines are met, and you keep the corporate clients who depend on you.*
- Take deposits to start a job and track the balance due on pickup, marked clearly per order. *Balances get collected on time and finished jobs do not sit uncollected eating your costs.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Services & Materials** — Add print services, materials, pricing rules, and finishing options.
2. **Quote, Print & Bill** — Create quotes, process jobs, and collect payments.
3. **Track & Optimize** — Use reports to improve margins and turnaround time.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know "can you just change..." after the quote is the whole game.** We know every job is a fresh calculation, the changes that come after the price is agreed, and the rush deadline buried in the queue. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real print shops in Nairobi, building job quotes, tracking the print queue, and managing deposits and consumables. So when you message us, a real person replies — someone who understands custom job pricing, quote changes, and deadlines — not a script. No jargon, no pressure, and an honest answer even if it is "you might not need us yet."
