HP Unlocks the Printable Web for Millions of Internet Users
By Reshma Kumar at October 17, 2007 10 CommentsHP has just announced that it will be making it easy for you to print your customized content from the web. This is part of HP’s Print 2.0 Strategy to offer internet users new and enhanced printing options to control what they print and how they print it. HP has partnered with high traffic sites like Facebook, Flickr, Windows Live Spaces, and Disney.com to offer this improved print capability. HP plans to deliver this via Web 2.0 technologies such as those developed through an acquisition of web-based app, Tabblo, and others.
“People are frustrated with printing from the web – it’s often wasteful and rarely do the pages print with the information laid out on the page the way you want,” said Vyomesh Joshi, executive vice president, Imaging and Printing Group, HP.
On Facebook, users can use a Graffiti widget to draw on or decorate their own and friend’s profiles and print their real-world artwork. With Flickr, it’s a similar feature. The HP technology will power a blog printing feature on Microsoft Live Spaces.
