摘要:
Methods and structure for verifying information in a device capabilities (DevCaps) file associated with a printing system. A job ticket generator generates test job tickets based on the DevCaps file and transmits the generated tickets to a job ticket validator. The validator validates that each received ticket can be correctly executed by the printing system. The generator accesses the DevCaps file to determine features configured on the printing system and possible values for each of the specified features. The validator returns a success or failure signal and the results of each test job ticket may be logged. An error status indicates an error in the DevCaps file relative to the present configuration of the printing system. The validator may be operable within the printing system such as a PostScript program executed by the printer controller or may be operable in a computer system coupled with the generator.

Methods and structure for flexible printing of documents from a mobile device in a printing enterprise. The mobile device is coupled with a remote print server through a public network and coupled with one or more printers of the enterprise through a private network. The mobile device serves as an intermediate device such that the printer is not connected directly to the remote print server. A user of the mobile device identifies a document to be printed and sends information relating to the identified document over the public network to the remote print server. The server renders the document and returns the rendered document to the mobile device that, in turn, transmits the rendered document to the printer over the private network to cause the document to be printed. Further, the user may select the printer by physically locating a preferred printer (in close proximity and/or equipped/configured as desired).
