Abstract: A method for delivering a publication to a subscriber includes obtaining, from a content source, a group of currently available subscribed content pieces for a subscriber; determining if content pieces, from the group of currently available subscribed content pieces, are invalid content pieces; removing any invalid content pieces from the group; creating a publication with content pieces remaining in the group; and delivering the publication to the subscriber.

Abstract: Examples disclose a method to query an availability of a target device. Additionally, the method generates a document for transmission to the target device based on the availability of the target device.

Abstract: A storage service stores data from a network device. A data collector retrieves the data for the storage service based on reference data passed to the storage service from the network device.

Abstract: A system for delivery of random novel content is disclosed. The system includes identification of the random novel content from source content imported from a content provider and in response to a selection of a selectable icon visually presented on a web-enabled device. The system further includes presentation of the identified random novel content to an output device via the web-enabled device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, source content is obtained from a computing system. A request is received, the request for scheduled automatic delivery, without user intervention, of subscribed-for content to a web-enabled printer. The subscribed-for content comprises at least a portion of the source content. A protocol for printing of the subscribed-for content is established based at least in part on information from the request and data stored in a memory. The subscribed-for content is caused to be formatted in accordance with the protocol. The subscribed-for content is caused to be obtained by the printer.

Abstract: For documents to be delivered via an automatic delivery system, a client-server solution ensures that a requested document is delivered and printed for instances when the requested document cannot be published at the time of normal scheduled delivery or print schedule. This aspect is particularly useful when the server is experiencing peak loads or if some document components are not available at the time of the normal scheduled delivery.

Abstract: A computer system includes an application with the ability to select printer settings from any of a variety of potential sources, and associate the printer settings with a document to be printed. The potential sources may include user-selected sets of printer settings that are particular to the document to be printed, are associated generally with the documents to be printed using the application, and globally associated with the computer system. The potential sources may also include a set of content-provider printer settings associated with the document and selected by a content-provider of the document.

Abstract: A URL page is printed by a computing system. When a reference to a URL address is dragged and dropped upon a print icon, the URL page is accessed from the Internet. The URL page is then printed on a printer. When the URL page is accessed and printed, the URL page is not displayed to a user of the computing system. Also, when a reference to the URL address for the URL page is dragged and dropped upon a desktop for a computing system, a special icon representing the URL page address is created on the desktop. Upon a user performing a function to activate the special icon, the URL page is printed.
