1. A method, comprising:
receiving a print job sent from a mobile communication device; determining whether the mobile communication device is within a print activation distance of an identified printer, wherein the print activation distance is a maximum distance between the identified printer and the mobile communication device; when the mobile communication device is not within the print activation distance, waiting to execute the print job based on an expected pickup time; when the expected pickup time arrives:
locating the mobile communication device;identifying the printer proximate the mobile communication device; andinitiating execution of the print job on the identified printer when the mobile communication device is within the print activation distance of the identified printer; and when the mobile communication device is within the print activation distance, initiating execution of the print job at the identified printer, wherein the printer proximate the mobile communication device is a closest distance printer to the mobile communication device.
