The Mobile Imaging and Printing Consortium (MIPC) announced that mobile handset makers Nokia, Samsung, and Siemens have become strategic members of the consortium. MIPC is an industry group founded to drive solutions and implementation guidelines for providing consumers with a simple and spontaneous experience when printing images taken with camera phones.

Consortium founders and printing industry leaders Canon, Epson and HP believe the MIPC is now strongly positioned to deliver guidelines enabling consumers to reliably and easily print camera phone images at home. The objective of the MIPC is to make these printing guidelines available during the second half of 2004. Existing connectivity technology standards and solutions such as Bluetooth(TM) wireless technology, printing from memory cards and PictBridge will be the underlying connectivity platforms for the consortium's work. According to a recent report by InfoTrends, camera phone users are expected to print more than 5 billion of the total images taken in 2004 and that number is forecasted to grow to 37.2 billion by 2008, when 85% of all mobile phones sold is estimated to feature an embedded camera.
