Description

A kind of method of shared device printer

Technical field

The present invention relates to internet and cloud computing technology field, refer to especially a kind of method of shared device printer.

Background technology

Along with the development of the development of Internet technology and software engineering, particularly internet works software and cloud computing technology, for a kind of method of shared device printer provides feasibility.

At present, user has different equipment simultaneously, comprises intelligent terminal, PC, notebook computer, panel computer, conventionally printing device is as the equipment of independent operating or be attached on the equipment such as PC and work, and beyond the equipment except computer equipment, user is difficult to use printing device conventionally.

When needing printer and background system, current cloud printing type supports, the type of printer of supporting is limited, and support the printer of cloud printing when using cloud printing model, user cannot carry out personal settings to printing, as the space of a whole page, printer page arranges etc., support that the data type of printing is also very limited, mostly just support conventional file layout, as the doc file layout of office, the jpeg format of image, pdf document form, for the printing host equipment that possesses the ability of enriching, as computer, ability does not wait and is utilized well.

Along with terminal technology, the development of Internet technology and cloud computing technology, especially the development of broadband wireless Internet technology, bandwidth and the speed of wireless Internet are greatly improved, the covering of network and stability concerning the stable application being connected of needs, have been no longer bottleneck problem with network speed.

By cloud, store data and cloud data access interface, the data that can realize between user's distinct device are exchanged visits fast, by the virtual printing pond in high in the clouds, on other equipment, be presented as a virtual print capacity, make user feel with local device on ability use-pattern basically identical.

Secondly, a large amount of conventional printer are still being used, for the ability of utilizing better existing print resource and utilizing existing various printing host equipments, the shortcoming of avoiding current cloud to print in the time of in conjunction with the advantage of current cloud printing model, becomes a kind of new research direction.

In view of this, the object of the invention is to propose a kind of simple, in conjunction with the method for a kind of shared device printer of cloud data access technology. ?

Summary of the invention

As can be seen from above, user is in system registry, system provides online printing pool queue, the data that user prints needs send to online printing pool, and the equipment Inspection that user computer etc. possess print capacity prints to data being synchronized to equipment end after the online printing pool of system has print data.

Further, the development that the method that provided a kind of shared device printer is provided is a kind of distributed system business provides powerful guarantee, meets the requirement of user each side, promotes user friendly experience.

For achieving the above object, one aspect of the present invention provides a kind of method of shared device printer, and the method comprises:

User, in system registry, obtains system account, and system access right, and system allows user account to login on a plurality of equipment, and specifies access means and print capacity equipment and attribute.

In an embodiment of the method for a kind of shared device printer provided by the invention, the method also comprises:

System be take user provides online virtual printing pond as unit as user, printing pool access interface is externally provided, receive the file that user is submitted to printing pool, after the variation of printing pool data queue being detected, by the mode of system sending out notice message or the mode of subscriber equipment poll, provide printing pool data query.

There is the equipment of print capacity after signing in to system, by polling mode or system sending out notice message mode, printing pool queue existence detected and need print data, according to print queue way to manage, data are synchronized on the equipment that possesses print capacity, further, can automatic or manual mode print synchronous data.

Have the following advantages specifically:

Share print capacity:

By cloud computing technology, in the seamless shared printing device ability of isomery equipment room, effectively expanded equipment utilization scope, make full use of the advantageous ability of each equipment.

By sharing the ability on distinct device, saved device resource, avoided each equipment all to become large and complete equipment, reduced cost, merge each equipment, made user use equipment to experience just as a virtual unified equipment, taken full advantage of capacity of equipment.

Without printer support:

The cloud printing technique of comparing current, shared device print capacity is without printer support, and by printer host equipment, traditional printer also can be worked well.

Make full use of host equipment ability:

The cloud of comparing is printed current use-pattern, and native system can be supported more file type and carry out setting of printing, take full advantage of the ability of host equipment.
