HP Presents HP ePrint Services App for iPhone
HP today announced the HP ePrint support App for iPhone is now available around the App Store.
Now thousands and thousands of iPhone customers can lookup for and download the app to unlock the strength of the HP ePrint Enterprise answer on their system. The HP ePrint Enterprise solution allows users to print inside their enterprise network through an HP Managed Print Companies engagement, and customers could also download the HP ePrint services App to print at a large number of HP ePrint Cellular Print Places globally, such as FedEx Office® and Hilton Around the world.
"By 2014, 90 percent of global Fortune 1000 companies will implement cloud printing providers for cellular personnel, showing what HP has known for years – mobility is not a trend, it's a way of life," said Bruce Dahlgren, senior vice president, Managed Enterprise Solutions, Imaging and Printing Group, HP. "We are committed to anticipating our customer needs and delivering innovative solutions like HP ePrint Enterprise for our enterprise customers that need simple, secure cellular access to printing."
Making printing as mobile as business users
With the launch from the HP ePrint services App, iPhone users can now print emails, presentations, reports, travel documents and more to any networked enterprise printer. To help mitigate security risks, all print jobs are managed by HP ePrint Enterprise Administrative Server software, ensuring that data is kept in the company's own network.
iPhone consumers can easily lookup a directory of obtainable print spots and use their smartphone's GPS functionality to navigate to HP ePrint Cellular Print Spots that include print and copy retail stores as well as hotels and airport lounges.
FedEx Workplace implemented the HP ePrint solution across its network of more than 1,800 locations nationwide last year,
Office 2010 Professional, giving consumers of BlackBerry® smartphones – and now iPhone – access to ePrint through the world's largest retail printing network.
"With these ePrint enhancements, iPhone users can now print documents directly from their devices to our stores using our FedEx Workplace Print & Go services," said Brian Philips, president and chief executive officer, FedEx Workplace. "We are the only national print retailer to offer smartphone printing – making us the clear leader in the marketplace with our extensive portfolio of products and providers."
Many HP ePrint Cellular Print Locations, which includes Hilton Around the world, are powered by the PrinterOn® network of public printers.
The HP ePrint services App is obtainable for free from the App Shop on iPhone or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.
