In accordance with an embodiment, a remote process may generate a script that includes instructions for performing at least one operation on a local client. The remote process may be running on a remote device that is separate from the local client. The remote process may send the script as an imaging job to a remote imaging interface installed on the local client. The remote imaging interface may be associated with a script interpreting despooling component. A spooler on the local client may despool the script to the script interpreting despooling component. The script interpreting despooling component may interpret the instructions within the script and perform the at least one operation based on the interpreted instructions.
