Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Upscale images to print-ready files (TIFF/PNG/JPG) via PrintScale.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: PRINTSCALE_API_KEY

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: PRINTSCALE_API_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "printscale": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "printscale-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PRINTSCALE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add printscale --env PRINTSCALE_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y printscale-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "printscale": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "printscale-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PRINTSCALE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "printscale": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "printscale-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PRINTSCALE_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • PRINTSCALE_API_KEY secret required env
    PrintScale API key (create one at https://printscale.app/dashboard/api)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Printscale MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: PRINTSCALE_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.2) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

printscale-mcp

An MCP server that lets AI agents (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) upscale images to print-ready files (TIFF + PNG + JPG) via PrintScale.

Setup

  1. Create an API key at https://printscale.app/dashboard/api.
  2. Add the server to your MCP client config, with the key as an env var.
Claude Desktop / Cursor (mcp config)
{

"mcpServers": { "printscale": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "printscale-mcp"], "env": { "PRINTSCALE_API_KEY": "psk_live_xxxxxxxx" } } } }

Claude Code (CLI)
claude mcp add printscale -e PRINTSCALE_API_KEY=psk_live_xxx -- npx -y printscale-mcp

Running locally from source instead of npm? Use

"command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/printscale-mcp/index.mjs"].

Tools

  • `printscale_upscale` — upscale an image. Provide a public image_url or a local file_path. Choose mode (auto / 2x / 3x / print); for print, set cm and dpi. Returns TIFF/PNG/JPG download URLs. Charges credits.
  • `printscale_job` — check a job's status by id.
  • `printscale_credits` — show the remaining credit balance.

Example prompts

  • "Upscale ./product.jpg to 60 cm at 300 DPI for print."
  • "Upscale https://example.com/photo.png at 3x and give me the TIFF."
  • "How many PrintScale credits do I have left?"

Notes

  • Start from a sharp source — PrintScale enlarges detail, it doesn't repair blurry or low-quality images.
  • Outputs are available for 3 days, then deleted. Download within the window.
  • Credits are shared with your PrintScale account (buy them in the app).

Env: PRINTSCALE_API_KEY (required), PRINTSCALE_BASE_URL (optional, defaults to https://printscale.app).
