Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012045862A1] The present invention relates to a system and method for printing an electronic document. A processing means, like a print server, is provided for interacting with a mobile device to receive electronic-document-information related to an electronic document. The processing means converts the electronic document into a print-ready-converted electronic document by using the electronic-document-information and a print-related-information, like the selection of a printer or providing necessary finishing options, such as duplex printing. The print-ready-converted electronic document is thereafter stored within a secure print queue on the processing means, including the print server. Using the mobile device the print-ready-converted electronic document may be released by the mobile device for printing on a designated multifunctional device. The mobile device may also be used for initiating a scanning of a hardcopy on a designated multifunctional device. The processing means, the mobile device and the multifunctional device may be part of a network.
