Abstract: A system for choosing a printer based on proximity comprising: a beacon to broadcast a transmission having a beacon ID; a printer to: receive the transmission, determine a received signal strength indicator for the transmission, generate a printer location signal including the beacon ID, the received signal strength indicator, and a printer ID associated with the printer, and transmit the printer location signal to a host server; the host server including a processor and a memory, the server configured to: receive the printer location signal from the printer, determine a printer location based on a predetermined location of the beacon, the beacon ID, and the received signal strength indicator, and associate the printer location with a printer zone; a printer proximity application to: receive a print request, the print request including a print data and a target zone, and transmit the print data to the printer in the target zone.

Abstract: A method in a server includes: storing, at the server, a configuration update definition including (i) criteria, and (ii) configuration update payload data; obtaining at the server, from a computing device having a connection to a wireless local area network (WLAN), a parameter of the connection; determining whether the parameter satisfies the criteria of the configuration update definition; and in response to determining that the parameter satisfies the criteria, transmitting the configuration update payload data to the computing device.

Abstract: A method in a server includes: storing, in a memory of the server, an energy consumption definition corresponding to a client device, the energy consumption definition including: (i) a plurality of operational states of the client device, and (ii) an estimation mechanism for each operational state; receiving, from the client device, operational data including an active one of the operational states at the client device, and a time period associated with the active operational state; generating, based on the operational data and the estimation mechanism corresponding to the active operational state, an estimated energy consumption for the client device; in response to generating the estimated energy consumption, obtaining an updated configuration setting for the client device; and transmitting the updated configuration setting to the client device to alter energy consumption at the client device.

Abstract: An application server is disclosed herein. The application server comprises a memory and a processor. The processor is capable of operating a process comprising: receiving a print request, the print request comprising a print job and a print zone; requesting a list of printers located in the print zone; selecting a printer from the list of printers; and transmitting the print job to the selected printer.
