Abstract: A document printing system may include one or more print devices, each is capable of detecting a portable memory device, and also detecting a document file and associated configuration file stored in the portable memory device, where the configuration file may contain information about an interruption of a print job associated with the document file. The interruption may have occurred previously on any of the print devices. Each print device may extract and use the information from the configuration file, to automatically resume the previously interrupted print job. Each print device may also be capable of detecting an interruption of a current print job and recording information about the interruption in the configuration file stored in the portable memory device. In some embodiments, the information about the interruption of the print job may include a page number, cause of the interruption and/or job attributes of the interrupted print job.

Abstract: A print device for automatically printing a document file from a portable memory device may include a port, a print engine, and a processing device. The processing device may detect that a portable memory device has become communicatively connected to the port, then access a print history from a data store and retrieve a print instruction, use the print history to determine that a document file in a designated folder of the portable memory device has not been printed, and automatically print the document file using the print engine based on the print instruction. After printing, the device may further transmit a communication to the data store to update the print history to reflect that the document file is printed. The print device may be capable of detecting an interruption and allowing a user to resume the print job later on the same print device or on another device.

Abstract: Disclosed are a system, an apparatus, and a method for automatically printing printable files stored inside an external storage device without any intervention of a user. The apparatus comprises a peripheral port for communicating with the external storage device and a control section comprising a memory for storing computer readable program code and a processor for executing the code to control the apparatus. The computer readable program code being configured to cause the apparatus to execute a process for determining availability of the optional instruction in the external storage device and printing at least one copy of the fetched printable files based on the determined availability of the optional instruction.
