Abstract
In a method of printing using a mobile device, the mobile device accesses remote content. An archive file containing the remote content is generated on the mobile device or on a proxy server on a network. The mobile device then transmits a print request to an imaging device, and the imaging device requests and receives the archive file and prints the content.
Claims25
A method of printing using a mobile device, comprising:
- accessing remote content;
- generating on the mobile device an archive file containing the remote content;
- transmitting a print request to an imaging device;
- receiving a file request from the imaging device for the archive file;
- and
- transmitting the archive file to the imaging device, whereby the imaging device prints the content.
A method of printing using a mobile device, comprising:
- accessing remote content;
- generating on a proxy server an archive file containing the remote content;
- transmitting a print request to an imaging device, the print request including a reference that indicates a location of the archive file on the proxy server;
- receiving a file request at the proxy server from the imaging device for the archive file;
- and
- transmitting the archive file from the proxy server to the imaging device, whereby the imaging device prints the content.
A method of printing using a mobile device, comprising:
- accessing remote content;
- generating on a proxy server an archive file containing the remote content;
- transmitting a print request to an imaging device;
- receiving a file request from the imaging device for the archive file;
- transmitting the file request to the proxy server;
- receiving the archive file from the proxy server in a data stream;
- and
- streaming the data stream of the archive file from the mobile device to the imaging device, whereby the imaging device prints the content.
