Self-service cloud printing method and system

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-service cloud printing method and system which can have the advantages of being capable of supporting multi-user operation, high in account number safety, high in file data safety, high in printing efficiency, convenient to print, multifunctional and the like. The method comprises the steps that a file needing to be printed and sent by any user terminal is received, a printing order is created based on the file, and the printing order is sent to the user terminal; the printing order comprises printing identification information and printing cost; sending a payment request and the printing order to any user terminal, wherein the payment request carries the printing cost; determining the file as a to-be-printed file after determining that any user terminal completes payment of the printing fee in response to the payment request; and after it is detected and confirmed that a printing terminal identifies the printing identification information, the to-be-printed file is printed through the printing terminal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of self-service shared cloud printing, in particular to a self-service cloud printing method and system. Background technique [0002] In the current self-service cloud printing solution, only the remote sending of files by users and network printing on designated printers are realized, but the management of personal file uploading and printing when multiple users use shared printers under the Internet at the same time cannot be realized. Moreover, after the user arrives at the site of the self-service printer, the user uploads the file, pays, and prints at one time to complete the operation. There is no function of uploading the file and paying the order in advance, and since all operations need to be completed on site, the user needs to queue up to upload the file , Payment operations, these operations cannot be parallelized, a waste of time. When the user is not at the site of the self-service printer, i...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the current self-service cloud printing solution, only the remote sending of files by users and network printing on designated printers are realized, and the management of personal file uploading and printing when multiple users use shared printers simultaneously under the Internet cannot be realized.

Moreover, after the user arrives at the site of the self-service printer, the user uploads the file, pays, and prints at one time to complete the operation. There is no function of uploading the file and paying the order in advance, and since all operations need to be completed on site, the user needs to queue up to upload the file , Payment operations, these operations cannot be parallelized, a waste of time

When the user is not at the site of the self-service printer, if these cloud printing services are used, since the uploaded files will be printed immediately after the order payment, it is easy for the printing tasks to interfere with each other, the paging / partitioning of the pick-up is confusing, and the file information and personal information are easy to leak And other issues
