Near field communication (NFC) is a technology that enables devices to communicate
when they are in close range. NFC allows you to add a printer to your Android mobile
device easily. After you add the printer, there is no need to use NFC on that printer. The
NFC feature requires installation of the Xerox Print Service app on the mobile device.
