Abstract:
A method and apparatus for printing data with a predetermined format transmitted from a terminal device using Bluetooth communication. The method includes receiving the data having the predetermined format from the terminal device using Bluetooth communication; combining the received data having the predetermined format with template data corresponding to the terminal device stored in a printing apparatus; and printing the combined data. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain the same printing result even when different printing apparatuses print the data by transmitting the data with the predetermined format from the terminal device to the different printing apparatuses using Bluetooth communication, and to obtain the same printing result when printing the data with the predetermined format by transmitting the data with the predetermined format from the terminal device or transmitting data obtained by combining the data with the predetermined format with the template data from the terminal device.
Abstract:
A control point includes a communication interface to search for one or more image forming apparatuses using digital living network alliance (DLNA), a user interface unit through which at least one piece of content is selected for printing using a user interface of the control point, and through which an image forming apparatus is selected from among the searched image forming apparatuses to perform printing, a DLNA stack unit to set a connection policy regarding connection to the selected image forming apparatus, and to selectively control the DLNA connection status to the selected image forming apparatus according to the connection policy, and a controller to control the communication interface to transmit print data corresponding to the selected content-for-printing and the connection policy to the selected image forming apparatus.
