Printer resource sharing in a media exchange network
First Claim
1. A system providing printer resource sharing in a communication network, comprising:
- a first communication device deployed in a first location;
a second communication device deployed in a second location;
a communication network communicatively coupled to the first communication device and the second communication device; and
at least one personal printer resource, communicatively coupled to the first communication device,wherein the first communication device deployed in the first location enables printing of information content on the at least one personal printer resource, at a request of a user of the second communication device, andwherein the user of the first communication device receives a signal from the second communication device that authenticates the second communication device, prior to printing of the information content on the at least one personal printer resource at the request of the user of the second communication device.

Abstract
A system providing printer resource sharing in a communication network is disclosed and may include a first communication device deployed in a first location, a second communication device deployed in a second location, and a communication network communicatively coupled to the first communication device and the second communication device. At least one personal printer resource may be communicatively coupled to the first communication device. The first communication device deployed in the first location may enable printing of information content on the at least one personal printer resource, at a request of a user of the second communication device. The user of the first communication device may receive a signal from the second communication device that authenticates the second communication device, prior to printing of the information content on the at least one personal printer resource at the request of the user of the second communication device.
