Just the other day I rushed into my office between meetings and needed a document printed right away, unfortunately, my laptop was in my car and I was running late. I didn’t have time to wait for my computer to boot up, thankfully I was able to print what I needed wirelessly from my iPhone. One more time my smartphone proved to be an invaluable tool. Have you ever needed to perform mobile printing? Here’s how it works, in my office we have a Konica Minolta bizhub C360 MFP, our network is equipped with Wi-Fi and I use an iPhone. The three main components needed for mobile printing, with Konica Minolta’s PageScope Mobile App loaded on my smartphone when I walk into my office my phone automatically connects to the company Wi-Fi which allows me to connect to the networked printers in the office. It really is that easy, the PageScope Mobile App is easy to you and comes with great benefits.
