CLOUD-BASED PRINTING MANAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240345787 titled 'CLOUD-BASED PRINTING MANAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods and systems for managing print jobs among multiple printing devices using a desktop client. The desktop client includes a database, application, and processor to collect data, communicate with a cloud-based server, select a suitable printing device, and direct print jobs accordingly.
- The patent application involves managing print jobs among a variety of printing devices.
- A desktop client with a database, application, and processor is used to handle the print job management.
- The desktop client collects data, communicates with a cloud-based server, selects an appropriate printing device, and sends print jobs to it.
- The desktop client can be a computing device, mobile device, or local server.
- The desktop client may also be a multifunction printing device (MFP).
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various settings where multiple printing devices are used, such as offices, schools, and print shops. It can streamline the print job management process and improve efficiency in printing operations.
