Hotspot Printing

**habik** · 03-23-2015

Is there any other manufacturer that does hotspot printing as Ricoh? i.e. print to hotspot printer email address > code received > code entered to printer > print job prints out.

That involves setting up IPP and a ticket system.

No not really. But know it works with a URL and a you get a page where u can submit what you what to print. KM training explained the system and it looked cool.

There is no market were i'm at for complex workflows, wish there was because i like setting stuff like this up.

Do some research on IPP i think we are going to see a lot more of it in the near future.

Was it Direct Print where you login to the webpage and drop a file (pdf,jpeg,tiff) know this works on LAN. Just not sure how could I release the job at will.(i.e. Not printing immediately)

PrinterOn used by Ricoh is a 3rd party. When you send a job to a hotspot printer the job goes to PrinterOn, they send you a code which you are going to use at the printer to release the job. I don't see a market for it. You don't need a 3rd party to print from your mobile device, just a free app.

the only one i set up was at a hotel...thought it was a nice option for the hotel guest, but i went back about a year later for regular PM stuff, the staff said no one used it. not sure if it was too complicated or inconvenient for users.

I Know the Universities use a system combined with P-counter or Y-soft. So it u are a student or staff you get billed.

Is the user going to be billed at a counter?

With the BH box function u can drop documents in a box from PSWC, them walk to the machine to print.

No billing. Just easy operation. What I like about the concept is that its foolproof. Attach file to email and off you go and it works globally, which will be a desired function.
