Abstract: A method disclosed. The method includes downloading a first print job data stream from a cloud computing network, transmitting the first print job data stream to a printer, monitoring a printing status of the printer to determine when the printer is ready to receive a second print job and downloading a second print job data stream from the cloud computing network upon determining that the printer is ready to receive the second print job.

Abstract: The systems and methods presented herein provide print operations to a client via a print application in a manner that makes the print application independently operable within a computing environment of the client. The system includes a print application initiator that is operable in the client to copy system definitions of the client that control computing sessions within the client, to retrieve print application definitions that control computing sessions for the print application, and to change one or more of the copied system definitions based on the print application definitions. The print application initiator is also operable to generate a computing session for the print application within the client based on the changed system definitions and to start the print application within the computing session to provide the print operations of a print processing device to the client.

Abstract: A computer system disclosed. The computer system includes a processing unit, a computer-readable medium coupled to the processing unit, a Windows operating system executed from the computer-readable medium and an Extension PacKage (EPK) file stored on the computer-readable medium. The EPK file includes one or more software package files and a version file having metadata information to enable installation of the one or more software package files. The computer system also includes a package manager, executed from the computer-readable medium by the processing unit, to install the one or more software package files for operation on the Windows operating system.
