HP and other established Mopria Alliance to promote wireless printing

"Sadie Network News" September 25, according to foreign media reports, Hewlett-Packard, Samsung, Xerox and Canon and other brand manufacturers created the Mopria Alliance, to more easily print on mobile devices to develop a detailed standard called Mopria. As the computing industry expands its focus from PCs to smartphones and tablets, it is hard to keep up with the development of print technology. But the new alliance created by printer manufacturers and other vendors wants to change that. The group currently includes HP, Canon, Samsung and Xerox. The manufacturers announced the establishment of the Alliance in Tuesday. These vendors believe that this alliance will make it easier to print on mobile devices. They have developed a set of interfaces that allow the mobile operating system to simplify printing software and make it easier for applications to use the printing power. Mopria technology also manages printer technology. This allows people to use Wi-Fi direct wireless networks to send print tasks, or to operate a printer using mobile phones that support NFC (near-distance communication) technology. The idea of wireless printing is similar to Apple's AirPrint technology, but it is designed to support any mobile operating system, says Phil Mccoog, senior technical expert at HP's print business. Mccoog says Mopria has won support from Adobe Bae. With the Mopria Alliance set up in Tuesday, the alliance will try to contract more companies. He did not comment on Apple's support. But, he says, every company is welcome to join the Alliance. Each company can build its own extra parts on a mopria basis. After 2013 years of rapid development efforts, Mopria technology has been completed and will be applied to the real world this year. The technology is accompanied by an identification plan. Consumers should see this logo when they buy a printer later.
