I work with large enterprise customers where they look to Hewlett-Packard to solve universal problems you may be interested in, including: reducing wasted prints, facilitating document capture, improving electronic and paper security, reducing costs of specialty printing, etc. Hewlett-Packard has made strong investments in the solutions space to help customers optimize their infrastructure, manage their environment and improve workflows. For some people, this may be as simple as doing more with the printers, MFPs, scanners, etc. they purchase from HP already. For others, they may look for solutions which alter business process to improve efficiencies. If you're thinking along these lines, I strongly you to take a look at the HP Global Solution Catalog and the HP LaserJet Fonts websites which have been recently updated showing more solution partners, better descriptions, more products, etc.

Take care, B.

So I just happened to be looking for some Macintosh drivers for a client and stumbled across this nifty iPod Touch and iPhone application called HP iPrint Photo. I haven't used it myself as I'm an HP iPaq 910c user, but looks really neat for those users who would like to print photos on the go or from their house.

HP iPrint Photo

If you're not familiar with Bonjour, it used to be called Rendezvous and uses mDNS (Multicast DNS) to locate compatible devices on the network. HP has been supporting this protocol for some time now on most of it's network capable consumer and commercial devices. Here's a handy PDF from the Mac-Connect folks at HP which describes this in a little more detail.

For those printing from their HP iPAQ devices, HP bundles its own printing software which is extremely handy as well. But more on that in a different post.

Over and Out.
