ABSTRACT:
Documents are processed collectively by multiple printing devices. A printing device receives a request to print a document, and partitions the document into one or more blocks. The printing device communicates, to each of one or more additional printing devices, at least one of the one or more blocks. The additional printing devices convert the portions they receive to a print-ready format, and return the portions in the print-ready format to the printing device. The printing device uses the portions in print-ready format received from the additional printing devices to print the document.
