Mike,
Out of curiosity, it would seem possible (and perhaps it already exists) for
a cell phone to use its camera as a scanner and to implement Scan and/or
FaxOut services, perhaps even using an IPP binding. Should we be
considering that?
Thanks,
Bill Wagner

Correct. Apologies if I wasn't clear below, but Send-Hardcopy-Document is
only required for printers with scanners.
