• a control service of a printing device for communication with the server to access the list;
• wherein the list is a most-recently-used list of intercepts to or from clipboard stores respectively of the at least two of the group of client devices;
• a second client device of the group of client devices for communication with the server;
• wherein a top item obtained from the first client device is available for a paste action or a copy action from the list by the second client device;
• wherein operating systems of the first client device and the second client device are different from one another;
• wherein the server is configured with a printer driver to convert an item of the intercepted data on the list into page description language data to provide a print job to the printing device for the second client device;
