Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise systems and methods for third-party administrative control of remote imaging jobs and imaging devices. In some embodiments, administrative controls may be used in conjunction with the remote user interface features to restrict access to the imaging device by remote user devices, remote user interface applications, and/or walkup users. In other embodiments, a server may provide a discovery process for imaging devices coupled thereto and may maintain a central repository for device capabilities information. The server may further emulate remote user interface capabilities for those imaging devices that do not directly support such features. In still other embodiments, a monitor process may be spawned to monitor status of the imaging device and jobs thereon and to control the state of job processing on the imaging device.

Abstract: Expedited administrative processing of a pay-for-print job addressing content that was the subject of a previous imaging job is realized through anticipatory generation and storage of print cost data for the content attendant to processing the previous imaging job. Anticipatory generation and storage of print cost data permits highly accurate print cost estimation without incurring a penalty in terms of delayed price quotations or delayed verification of funds for the pay-for-print job.

Abstract: The invention, it its several embodiments, pertains to document control, more particularly to tracking and controlling production and destruction of documents. Documents may include softcopies and hardcopies. Typically, each document controlled in the exemplary tracking and control system has its own tracking identifier, so as to enable the system, for example, to distinguish an original document from copies and to distinguish copies from copies.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for securely accessing imaging job resources in a printing device. The method initially downloads a restricted software resource to a printing device. That is, the resource is restricted to use by a user group. As differentiated from factory installed software, or field upgrades, the restricted software resource is stored in a user-accessible memory, such as non-volatile storage (e.g., RAM). Subsequently, an imaging job is accepted for processing. The imaging job is verified to be associated with the user group. Subsequent to verification, access is permitted to the restricted software resource, and the imagining job is processed using the restricted software resource.
