Apparatus, system and method for controlling an image processing device via a mobile device

摘要

An image processing device is provided that generates a graphical user interface including;at least one image element that enables receipt of a data value of a particular type therein, the graphical user interface being generated in response to selecting a processing job to be performed by the image processing device. The generated graphical user interface is mirrored to a mobile computing device by transmitting data representative of the graphical user interface to a mobile computing device via a short distance communication protocol. A return data object is received, via the short distance communication protocol, that represents a modified graphical user interface including the at least one image element having the data value of the particular type, the data value having been provided using mobile computing device. The image processing device initiates execution of the processing job to generate job data and automatically associating the data value derived from the modified graphical user interface with the generated job data.

1. An image processing device comprising:
one or more processors; and a memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory including instructions stored therein that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to
generate a graphical user interface including at least one image element enabling receipt of a data value of a particular type therein, the graphical user interface being generated in response to selecting a processing job to be performed by the image processing device;mirror the generated graphical user interface on a mobile computing device by transmitting form object data describing a structure of the graphical user interface including the at least one image element and the particular type of data to be received within the graphical user interface to a mobile computing device via a short distance communication protocol, the form object data being used by the mobile computing device to render the graphical user on the mobile computing device;receive a return data object, via the short distance communication protocol, including data describing a modified graphical user interface including the at least one image element having the data value of the particular type, the data value having been input using mobile computing device;executing the processing job to generate job data and automatically associating the data value derived from the modified graphical user interface with the generated job data.
