摘要:
A method for assisting a user to correct a problem with a device, such as a printer includes extracting, from records comprising user actions on the device, a string of user actions on the device. The string of user actions is compared with at least one predetermined sequence of user actions for correction of a predefined problem with the device. Based on the comparison, an evaluation is made as to whether at least one prior user has attempted the predetermined sequence and, if so, a procedure is implemented to avoid a user repeating the prior attempt.
