`
`Technical Field of the Invention
`
`[0002]
`
`Present invention relates to providing content to an output device and,
`
`in
`
`particular, to providing universal output in which an information apparatus can pervasively
`
`output content to an output device without the need to install a dedicated device
`
`dependentdriver or applications for each output device.
`
`Background of the Disclosure
`
`[0003]
`
`The present invention relates to universal data output and,
`
`in particular,
`
`to
`
`providing a new data output method and a new raster image process for information
`
`apparatuses and output devices.
`
`[0004]
`
`As described herein,
`
`information apparatuses refer generally to computing
`
`devices, which include both stationary computers and mobile computing devices
`
`(pervasive devices). Examples of such information apparatuses include, without
`
`limitation, desktop computers,
`
`laptop computers, networked computers, palmtop
`
`computers (hand-held computers), personal digital assistants (PDAs), Internet enabled

`

`mobile phones, smart phones, pagers, digital capturing devices (e.g., digital cameras and
`
`video cameras), Internet appliances, e-books, information pads, and digital or web pads.
`
`Output devices may include, without limitation, fax machines, printers, copiers,
`
`image
`
`and/or video display devices (e.g., televisions, monitors and projectors), and audio output
`
`devices.
`
`[0005]
`
`For simplicity and convenience, hereafter, the following descriptions may refer
`
`to an output device as a printer and an output processasprinting. However, it should be
`
`understood that the term printer and printing used in the discussion of present invention
`
`refer to one embodiment used as a specific example to simplify the description of the
`
`invention. The referencesto printer and printing used here are intended to be applied or
`
`extended to the larger scope and definition of output devices and should not be construed
`
`as restricting the scope and practice of present invention.
`
`[0006]
`
`Fueled by an ever-increasing bandwidth, processing power, wireless mobile
`
`devices, and wireless software applications, millions of users are or will be creating,
`
`downloading, and transmitting content and information using their pervasive or mobile
`
`computing devices. As a result, there is a need to allow users to conveniently output
`
`content and information from their pervasive computing devices to any output device. As
`
`an example, people need to directly and conveniently output from their pervasive
`
`information apparatus, without depending on synchronizing with a stationary computer
`
`(e.g., desktop personal computer) for printing.
`
`[0007]
`
`Toillustrate, a mobile worker at an airport receiving e-mail in his hand-held
`
`computer may want to walk up to a nearby printer or fax machine to have his e-mail
`
`printed.
`
`In addition, the mobile worker may also want to print a copy of his to-do list,
`
`appointment book, business card, and his flight schedule from his mobile device. As
`
`another example, a user visiting an e-commerce site using his mobile device may want
`
`to print out transaction confirmation. In still another example, a user who takesa picture
`
`with a digital camera may wantto easily print it out to a nearby printer. In any of the above
`
`cases, the mobile user may want to simply walk up to a printer and conveniently print a
`
`file (word processing document, PDF, HTML etc) that is stored on the mobile device or
`
`downloaded from a network (e.g., Internet, corporate network).
`
`[0008]
`
`Conventionally, an output device (e.g., a printer) is connected to an information

`

`apparatus via a wired connection such as a cable line. A wireless connection is also
`
`possible by using,
`
`for example,
`
`radio communication or
`
`infrared communication.
`
`Regardless of wired or wireless connection, a user mustfirst install in the information
`
`apparatus an output device driver (e.g., printer driver in the case the output device is a
`
`printer) corresponding to a particular output device model and make. Using a device-
`
`dependent or specific driver, the information apparatus may process output content or
`
`digital document into a specific output device's input requirements (e.g., printer input
`
`requirements). The output device's input requirements correspond to the type of input that
`
`the output device (e.g., a printer) understands. For example, a printer's input requirement
`
`mayinclude printer specific input format (e.g., one or more of an image, graphics or text
`
`formator language). Therefore, an output data (or print data in the case the output device
`
`is a printer) herein refers to data that is acceptable for input to an associated output
`
`device. Examples of input requirements may include, without limitation, audio format,
`
`video format,
`
`file format, data format, encoding,
`
`language (e.g., page description
`
`language, markup language etc), instructions, protocols or data that can be understood
`
`or used by a particular output device make and model.
`
`[0009]
`
`Input requirements may be based on proprietary or published standards or a
`
`combination of the two. An output device's input requirements are, therefore, in general,
`
`device dependent. Different output device models may havetheir own input requirements
`
`specified, designed or adopted by the output device manufacturer (e.g.,
`
`the printer
`
`manufacturer) according to a specification for optimal operation. Consequently, different
`
`output devices usually require use of specific output device drivers (e.g., printer drivers)
`
`for accurate output (e.g., printing). Sometimes,
`
`instead of using a device driver (e.g.,
`
`printer driver),
`
`the device driving feature may be included as part of an application
`
`software.
`
`[0010]
`
`Installation of a device driver (e.g., printer driver) or application may be
`
`accomplished by, for example, manual installation using a CD or floppy disk supplied by
`
`the printer manufacturer. Or alternatively, a user may be able to download a particular
`
`driver or application from a network. For a home or office user, this installation process
`
`may take anywhere from several minutes to several hours depending on the type of driver
`
`and user's sophistication level with computing devices and networks. Even with plug-and-

`

`play driver installation, the user is still required to execute a multi-step process for each
`
`printer or output device.
`
`[0011]
`
`This installation and configuration process adds a degree of complexity and
`
`work to end-users who may otherwise spend their time doing other productive or
`
`enjoyable work. Moreover, many unsophisticated users may be discouraged from adding
`
`new peripherals (e.g., printers, scanners, etc.) to their home computers or networks to
`
`avoid the inconvenience ofinstallation and configuration. It is therefore desirable that an
`
`information apparatus can output
`
`to more than one output device without
`
`the
`
`inconvenience ofinstalling multiple dedicated device dependentdrivers.
`
`[0012]
`
`In addition, conventional output or printing methods may pose significantly
`
`higher challenges and difficultie
