Abstract: A method for downloading a data set from a network application to an output device, comprising the steps of initiating the network application; uploading search and discovery parameters to the network application to identify and locate the output device, the parameters being selected from geographical locating information, identifying information, prior access and usage information, and combinations thereof; identifying and locating the output device via an algorithm and a database in the network application; and downloading the data set to the output device. The network application preferably is distinct from the output device. The data set may be, for example, a file, an image, a video recording, an audio recording, other digital format file, or a written document. The output device may be, for example, a printer, document display device, laptop computer, mainframe computer, mobile device, video projector, or any other computerized device.
