Abstract: A system and method for proximity-based printing are disclosed. A method may include communicating access point proximity information from an information handling system to a print server, the access point proximity information including information regarding the proximity of the information handling system to one or more network access points. The method may also include receiving printer proximity information from the print server, the printer proximity information based at least on the access point proximity information and including information regarding the proximity of the information handling system to one or more printers. The method may additionally include displaying the printer proximity information to a user interface. The method may further include receiving from the user interface a user selection of a printer and communicating the user selection to the print server.

Abstract: A system and method for modifying execution scripts associated with a job scheduler may include monitoring for the execution of a task to determine when the task has failed. Details of the failed task may be identified and used to attempt recovery from the task failure. After initiating any recovery tasks, execution of the recovery tasks may be monitored, and one or more supplementary recovery tasks may be identified and executed, or the original task may be rerun at an appropriate execution point based on the initial point of failure. Thus, when a task has failed, an iterative process may begin where various effects of the failed task are attempted to be rolled back, and depending on the success of the rollback, the initial task can be rerun at the point of failure, or further recovery tasks may be executed.
