Application management of printing requests through induced analytics
An approach for managing printing requests of a computer printing system is provided. In one aspect, the approach comprises a computing printing system receiving a printing request based on parameters of a printing request data. The approach further comprises the computing printing system determining printing alternatives for the printing request based on the printing request data. In addition, the computing printing system detects if the printing request can be archived in an email repository or transmitted to a mobile device of the requestor based on the printing alternatives. Moreover, the approach further comprises the computing printing system redirecting the printing request to one or more of an email archive of the email repository or the mobile device based on the detection of the printing request.
1. A method for managing printing requests within a computer system based on parameters of a printing request data, the method comprising the steps of:
receiving a printing request based on parameters of a printing request data of at least one electronic document of an email;
determining printing alternatives of the printing request based on the printing request data, wherein email contents of the email are examined to determine if the printing request is suitable for archive in an email repository, and wherein a printing type and a printing size of the parameters of the printing request data, are examined to determine if the printing request is suitable for transmission to the mobile device;
detecting if the printing request can be archived in an email repository or transmitted to a mobile device of a requestor based on the printing alternatives, wherein the email is archived in the email repository based on identification of fields of at least one sender of the email, urgency of the email, and subject matter of the email of the printing request; and
redirecting the printing request to one or more of an email archive of the email repository or the mobile device based on the detection.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of examining email contents of the printing request data further comprises:
parsing one or more header fields of the email contents to identify at least one sender of the email; and
parsing one or more attachments or one or more plain text body of the email contents to identify subject matter or urgency of the email.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the redirected printing request is displayed on the mobile device of the requestor.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the printing type and printing size includes one or more of number of pages, page margin data, page layout data, paper size data of the printing request data.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of redirecting the printing request to one or more of an email archive or a mobile device further comprises:
indicating an option to the requestor to print an electronic document of the printing request or redirect the printing request to either of one or more of the email archive or the mobile device.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein, the mobile device includes a contact list of mobile numbers of an individual, or a group of individuals, and wherein, the printing request is directed to the contact list of the individual, or a group of individuals based on the option of the requestor to redirect the printing request to the mobile device.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein an electronic document is displayed in an interface of the mobile device based on the redirected printing request.
8. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting a short message service to the mobile device, indicating a message that a printing request is submitted to the mobile device for display the electronic document of the email in an interface of the mobile device.
