Abstract: A system for identifying printers is disclosed herein. An example includes a network and a plurality of printers coupled to the network. The system also includes a device coupled to the network that transmits a current location to the network and a server coupled to the network to produce a map of printers within a proximity of the device based on the current location of the device. The system additionally includes an application associated with the device to selectively produce a sound on at least one of the printers to help identify a location of the printer and to transmit a print job to the identified printer. Other elements and features of the system are disclosed herein, as are examples of a method for identifying networked printers and a non-volatile storage medium.
