Abstract
A system and method for automated selection of a wireless document processing device. Data representing a plurality of available document processing devices is first generated on a wireless data processing device. The wireless data connection is then detected between a portable data device and an associated access point, wherein the access point is associated with at least one of the available document processing devices. Next, the at least one available document processing device is set as the default selection for performing document processing operations based on the detected wireless connection between the portable data device and the wireless access point associated with the at least one document processing device.
