JetSend JetSend Internet Foundation Software Oak Technology's Soft Print Server embedded platform incorporates Hewlett Packard's JetSend technology. JetSend can be viewed as a built-in intelligent module that allows devices to directly communicate and exchange information without requiring an intermediary, such as a network server or device driver.
Devices negotiate automatically.
No need for user to know characteristics of sending and receiving devices Introduction Peripheral devices in today's market are becoming increasingly intelligent. Communications protocols are allowing easier and simpler exchanges of information between these devices. For example, a user could scan an image and print to a remote printer without having to access device drivers, know the status and capabilities of the printer, negotiate the outcome and use an intermediary device like a network server. In other words, this exchange would occur rapidly, seamlessly, automatically and with little or no user intervention. This interchange requires the implementation of standards that will allow data to pass from one device to another via common protocols.
