Title
Digital camera user sends photo prints to a third party using a
geographically located IPP Everywhere printer through a Cloud Provider
Description
User has a digital camera connected to a mobile device and wants to send a
photograph from it to someone in a different geographic location. The user
selects a target printer based on the Cloud Provider's information regarding
geographic location, capabilities/features, and pricing. The user configures
the print job, and once the Cloud Provider determines that the settings are
valid, the job is sent to the targeted device and printed. The third party
picks up their job at the targeted printer.
