Why Use IPP on Mobile Devices?</div><div> - Currently printing on mobile devices (smart phones, netbooks, etc.) is hit-or-miss</div><div> - Usually no way to install printer drivers, and vendor-specific solutions leave a lot to be desired (separate application, etc.)</div><div> - Printing is usually less "organized" - you print to the device you are near (queue "love the one you're with" music :)</div><div> - Printing requirements are generally simpler (smaller documents, etc.)</div><div><br></div><div>2. Mobile IPP Printing Use Cases</div><div> - EMail messages (and attachments)</div><div> - Web pages (boarding passes, directions, etc.)</div><div> - Photos (built-in camera)</div><div> - Notes, to-do lists, etc. created on the device</div><div> - All typically 1-3 pages in length</div><div><br></div><div>3. Mobile IPP Printing Experience</div><div> - Press "print" on phone</div><div> - Select nearby printer on Wifi network (DNS-SD/Bonjour/etc.)</div><div> - Select paper size and possibly options (duplex? quality?)</div><div> - Press "print" on phone again</div><div><br></div><div>4. How to Support IPP on Mobile Devices</div><div> - Mobile devices can already generate JPEG, PNG, XHTML, and PDF data easily (even in bands of raster data) via existing, embeddable (and often free) software libraries</div><div> - Mobile devices can already discover printers and send print jobs via IPP easily via existing, embeddable (and free) software libraries</div><div> - Many printers already support DNS-SD/Bonjour, IPP, JPEG, PDF, PNG, and XHTML-Print</div><div> - Missing piece: IPP standard to define interoperability requirements</div><div><br></div><div>5. Outline of a Mobile IPP Specification</div><div> - Require IPP/2.0</div><div> - Define the baseline document-format's to support: JPEG, PDF, PNG, and XHTML-Print</div><div> - Client (mobile device) must support generation of all formats</div><div> - Server (printer) must support at least one of the formats (advertised via document-format-supported)</div><div> - Server must also support media and media-supported attributes using PWG media names to select output size</div><div> - Server optionally supports other job template attributes</div><div> - Server scales to fit specified media</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; ">________________________________________</span></div><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div>Michael R Sweet, Senior Printing System Engineer</div></div></div></span></span>
