I don't know if this was meant as serious?  But FWIW the IETF published the Internet Printing Protocol (STD 92) more than 2 decades ago, and it is used by nearly every network printer ("billions of printers") and most "cloud" printing services (including Microsoft's Azure-based Universal Print Service).  Any printer with "AirPrint", "IPP Everywhere", "Mopria", or "Wi-Fi Direct" on the box supports IPP.

The Printer Working Group (who is the current steward of IPP and the variable SNMP printing MIBs) has also defined numerous IPP extensions, including standards for cloud printing and Internet fax using a streamable subset of PDF.

So, assuming somebody doesn't just email you a file you can print it quite easily using a single, standard protocol.

[But of course telephone-based fax still hasn't died - boggles the mind...]
