locations within an organization's own campus, facilities or construction sites.
Using the Wi-Fi configuration on the iPad device, users can retrieve scanned PDF, PLT (HPGL1/2), TIFF, JPEG and DWF files via email or other
cloud-based applications, then send a print request to a supported Oce wide format device including all Oce ColorWave, Oce PlotWave TDS
and TCS systems via Oce Publisher Mobile App for iPad.

documents in the field, without disrupting their workflow. Employees no longer have to worry that they have all the documents they may need stored
on a jump drive or printed as hard copies before they go into the field. They can trust that all the critical documents they need are stored securely in
the cloud and can be accessed and sent to any Oce large format printing system within their existing network environment enabled with the mobile
printing software.
