Abstract: Due to different formats for print jobs, in particular different means of identifying users, it is a problem how to handle a print job submitted to a cloud printing service, in which a user is identified by first user credentials, for processing by an authenticated printing system for which the user is identified by second user credentials. This problem is solved by a method comprising the steps of: i. obtaining the print job from the cloud printing service, the print job comprising print job metadata comprising the first user credentials, ii. obtaining the second user credentials based on the first user credentials, iii, adding the second user credentials to the metadata, and iv. forwarding at least the print job metadata comprising the second user credentials, to the authenticated printing system for the processing. A system for performing the method is also provided.

Abstract: Due to the lack of a user account, it is a problem to handle a guest print job, submitted by a guest user and associated with first user credentials, for processing by an authenticated printing system requiring the guest print job to be authenticated using second user credentials. This problem is solved by a method comprising the steps of i. obtaining the guest print job, the guest print job comprising print job metadata, the first user credentials being associated with the print job, ii. obtaining the second user credentials, iii. creating a guest user account with the authenticated printing system, the guest user account being associated with the second user credentials, iv. adding the second user credentials to the metadata, and v. forwarding at least the print job metadata, comprising the second user credentials, to the authenticated printing system for processing. A system and a computer program product for performing the method are also provided.

Abstract: Due to different formats for documents, in particular different means of identifying users, it is a problem how to handle a document in a cloud storage system, in which a user is identified by first user credentials, for processing by an authenticated printing system for which the user is identified by second user credentials. This problem is solved by a method comprising the steps of: i. obtaining the document from the cloud storage system, the document comprising document metadata comprising the first user credentials, ii. obtaining the second user credentials based on the first user credentials, iii, obtaining a print job corresponding to the document, the print job comprising print job metadata comprising the second user credentials, and iv. forwarding at least the print job metadata comprising the second user credentials, to the authenticated printing system for the processing. A system and a computer program product for performing the method are also provided.
