Abstract

A print service system and method. The method typically includes receiving a print request at a local client computing device, and displaying a remotely served print interface on the local client computing device. The print interface is typically configured to request a printing parameter relating to the print request. The method may further include creating a printable file in response to the print request, and sending the printable file and associated printing parameter from the local client computing device to a remote publisher for printing. The print interface may be served by a workflow application server associated with the print service, and the printable file may be temporarily uploaded to a repository before being downloaded to the remote publisher for printing. The local client computing device may include a browser, and the method may further include, after receiving the print request, opening the browser to an address from which the print interface is remotely served. The browser may be opened by a client initialization program, which may be called by a print driver associated with the print service.
