    Abstract: In a web-based imaging environment, a user accesses a destination service (e.g.,representing a printer), which retrieves user's imaging data production options for a processing job. The user selects desired production options, after which the destination service estimates the time duration required to process the user's job based on the selected options. If the estimated time required is greater than a predetermined threshold, the option of processing is disabled and a message is normally displayed to the user. If not, the option to process is enabled. In variations, the user's ability to process is reevaluated as the user selects differing options. In other variations, an administrator specifies the threshold, or specifies multiple user-specific thresholds, and/or thresholds specific to time of day and/or day of week and/or month. In another variation, if the user cannot process to this production device, a link to an alternative device is provided.

    Abstract: A system for remote installation of software is utilized to install peripheral software associated with a device driver during the installation of the device driver for a selected peripheral. In particular, a user installs a device driver for the selected peripheral installed from a remote computer. As part of the installation process, the device driver is configured to self-initialize and invoke an initialization entry point. The initialization entry point may be configured to point to a driver initialization description file which is read by the device driver. The initialization description file includes a name of the peripheral software and an installation method for the peripheral software. This information is utilized by the device driver to install the peripheral software according to the listed installation method.

    Abstract: Printer drivers in printer clients which have internal clocks take time/date data from the clock of the printer client and append that data to each transmission of a print job to a connected printer. The printer's processor extracts that time/date data from the print job transmission and uses that time or automatically set or adjust the time kept by a clock circuit internal to the printer. In this way, the printer's clock circuit consistently provides accurate time/date data that can be used to more efficiently manage the operation of the printer.

    Abstract translation: 具有内部时钟的打印机客户端中的打印机驱动程序从打印机客户端的时钟获取时间/日期数据,并将该数据附加到打印作业的每个传输到连接的打印机。 打印机的处理器从打印作业传输中提取时间/日期数据,并使用该时间,或者自动设置或调整打印机内部的时钟电路所保留的时间。 以这种方式,打印机的时钟电路始终提供准确的时间/日期数据,可用于更有效地管理打印机的操作。

    Abstract: A method, system and program product for operating a web imaging system for use with a browser on an imaging client, comprising the steps of: receiving a request from external web content for a reference to a resource; translating the request to an imaging client specific command; creating an opaque reference that is mapped to the imaging client specific command; and providing this opaque reference to the web content, without supplying a reference to the resource or the imaging client specific command to the web content.

    Abstract: A method of apprising a user of print job status includes assessing what portion of a print job has been processed, displaying a status of the print job reflecting the portion of the print job that has been processed, iterating assessing and displaying until assessing determines that the print job has been entirely processed and terminating the print job when assessing determines that the print job has been entirely processed.
