I have been in talks with some faculty/staff about mobile printing across mobile devices, specifically smart phones and tablets.
Imagine, being late to class and you forgot to print out your essay. You rush out of your room forgetting your computer and the only mobile device that you have is your smart phone. Now, your class is located a fair distance away from the library so you won't be able to print your essay using a laptop. However, you stored your essay on your MSOE Box account. With your smart phone you were able to access your essay and print it out right before coming to class.
With mobile printing, I was hoping that you will be able to print from the mobile devices I specified above. Overall, its just a convenient service to have but I am curious as to its current development and the technology already available.
Does anyone else know about the current standing of MSOE mobile printing?
Thank you to Dana Grennier, Walter Schilling, and Mark Sebern for listening to my talk about mobile printing today.
Hopefully this could be a potential service for MSOE in the future!
Thank you,
Gerald Soriano
