    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for executing various types of maintenance operations upon various types of printers. The maintenance operations can include preemptive actions that are taken upon a printer that is being operated in a certain environment, the preemptive actions based on evaluating operational statistics associated with a set of similar printers operated in a similar environment. The operational statistics, which are automatically accumulated over a period of time for various printers under various operating conditions, can be implemented in various ways, such as in the form of behavioral models and/or predictive models. In some embodiments, the behavioral models and/or predictive models indicate an expected-time-to-failure of a component when a printer is operated in a certain environment. The expected-time-to-failure information can be utilized to execute preemptive printer maintenance operations such as scheduling a replacement of the component ahead of the expected-time-to-failure.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring the settings of a peripheral device are provided. In one implementation, a method includes a step of determining when the peripheral device is powered up and in communication with a host device. The method further includes the step of reading configuration settings associated with an operating system of the host device when the peripheral device is determined to be powered up and in communication with the host device. Also, the method includes communicating the configuration settings associated with the operating system of the host device to the peripheral device for configuring the settings of the peripheral device.
