Abstract
With the advancement of digital solutions, the need for printing is becoming less relevant every year. This also means that the need for personal printers is decreasing every year, and services like Print in City, which allow users to access public printers for a small fee, are replacing personal printers. Currently, these services still have a downside compared to regular printers – they require the user to use a webpage to upload their documents. This complicates the service and discourages the users from using it. This thesis details the de-velopment of a virtual printer and printer driver to solve this problem. The virtual printer is a web service that acts as a regular printer and makes the experience of using Print in City very similar to the experience of using a regular printer. A working prototype of the pro-posed solution is developed and presented.
