Establishing a link between a printing device and a cellular telephone enables direct output from the mobile device. This functionality allows users to bypass traditional computer-based printing processes. An example includes printing a photograph directly from a smartphone’s photo gallery to a wireless printer.
The ability to print directly from a mobile phone offers increased convenience and portability. Historically, printing required transferring files to a computer. This direct connectivity streamlines workflows and enhances productivity, particularly in situations where immediate hard copies are needed and a computer is not readily available.
