# Printed Simply Integration

Order Desk can submit your print on demand orders to [Printed Simply](https://printedsimply.com/). As orders are fulfilled, the shipment info will automatically be pulled back into Order Desk and sent back to the original shopping cart.

### Setup

To connect to Printed Simply, click on **Manage Integrations** in the left sidebar. Under the **Print on Demand** tab, find and click to enable the Printed Simply integration.

Please note that Order Desk isn’t able to help find or reset your credentials, as they can only be provided by Printed Simply.

Once connected, you will have a few settings where you can set your preferences for this integration.

#### After Import, Move To

Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after they are sent to Printed Simply.

If you want to use a custom folder, create your own from Store Settings. See the [Working with Folders](/start-here/getting-started-series/quick-start-overview.md#working-with-folders) guide for more information.

#### After Shipment, Move To

Select the folder you want orders to be moved into when Printed Simply sends shipment details back into Order Desk.

Printed Simply has said that it takes 24-48 hours for tracking to appear in their dashboard.

#### Return Address Information

Set your default return address for Printed Simply to use on your order shipments.

If you need to customize the return address for certain orders, you can save different return addresses to your Store Settings and use a rule to set the return address on specific orders. If a return address is not added to the order, the default address set here in the Printed Simply settings will be used.

For information on adding additional return addresses and applying them to specific orders with a rule, read the [Store Settings](/guided-walkthroughs/using-order-desk/manage-store-settings.md#return-addresses) guide.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

```
GET https://help.orderdesk.com/integration-setup-guides/print-on-demand/printed-simply-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
