If I am sitting next to my printer, I have a desktop computer in front of me
from which I can issue the print job, so why would I want to do it from a
notebook or smartphone?


Kevin.  No one is saying YOU want to print from your phone. However this software is not written just for you. Solomon and others do not write the software just for you but for the several million people who have to use printers in all different kinds of environments.

For a good proportion of those people out there.. printing from the phone is an expected feature be it instagram memes or that pdf your department head sent out which is too small to read on the phone. So it is going to be something Solomon and others will focus on or they might as well scrap printing.
