Zusammenfassung:A system and method are provided for delivering document print instructions in a system of network-connected devices. The method comprises: accepting printer control data at a network-connected email address; generating the printer-controller form in response to the printer control data; calling the printer-controller form; populating printer-controller form parameters; attaching a document to the printer-controller form; emailing the printer-controller form, with attachment, to a network-connected printer; and, printing the attached document in response to the printer-controller form parameters. Printing the attachment in response to the printer-controller form parameters includes the printer: opening the emailed printer-controller form; parsing the printer-controller form parameters; and, printing in response to the parsed parameters. In some aspects of the method, the printer-controller form is saved at a network-connected server, and calling a printer-controller form includes accessing the form from the server. Alternately, the printer-controller form is generated by the printer and delivered, via email.
