Problems solved by technology

In today's fast-paced mobile business environment, this limited printing solution is no longer satisfactory.
While legacy printing technologies certainly have advanced to output document faster with higher resolution, improved quality, and color, there has been little effort to develop a printing technology that fits today's mobile workforce.

Embodiment Construction

[0347] As discussed above, in one embodiment wireless-web enabled devices are enabled to access the system via WAP gateway 110 (FIG. 20). WAP interfaces comprises a "deck" of "cards" that are roughly analogous to HTML-based Web pages, except that they are encoded in WML and contain significantly less data. Furthermore, WAP cards are designed so that they can be navigated with a minimal user interface. With reference to the legend of FIG. 38, details of various WAP cards and operations corresponding an exemplary WAP-based user interface are shown in FIGS. 39-52. In one embodiment, a set of CGI scripts are used to automatically generate the WAP cards.

[0348] With reference to FIGS. 39 and 40, a user accesses the system with a WAP-enabled device in the following manner. First, the user access his or her wireless Internet gateway in the manner discussed above. The user will then enter the URL for the system, either directly or through a recalled link (i.e., favorite link, etc.) A splash ...

Abstract

A system and method for managing output such as printing, faxing, and e-mail over various types of computer networks. In one aspect, the system and method provides for accessing print and/or document resources located on private networks behind firewalls. A pass-through communication link is established between system components located on opposing sides of a firewall. A system-served user-interface enables users to select source data and an output device on which the source data are to be printed, either or both of which may reside behind the firewall. The source data are then retrieved and forwarded to a print service, which renders output image data corresponding to the source data and the selected output device. The output image data are then submitted to the output device to be physically rendered. Access to private resources is provided by the pass-through communication link. The system also enables documents to be printed by reference.
