Abstract
A method and apparatus for implementing one click printing in an application such as a web browser. The present invention exploits the 'pull print' method without requiring copying of the URL. An application is enhanced so that when the user clicks on the link for the pre-formatted document, the application contacts the user's printer, print server, or other device that accepts print jobs, and submits a 'pull print' request referring to the URL. Alternatively, the user accesses the context menu for a link which points to a printable document, the menu presented includes a choice to directly print the document, and then the “pull print” is done.
