发明名称 Remote and Customizable User Interfaces for Multi-Function Peripherals (MFPs)
摘要 A remote MFP GUI application allows a user to use a GUI of mobile device to specify features and options to be used to perform one or more functions at an MFP, instead of, or in addition to, using the user interface of the MFP. The remote MFP GUI application generates selection data that specifies the features and options specified by the user and causes the selection data to be transmitted to the MFP. The user then completes performance of the one or more functions at the MFP. Features and options specified by a user via the GUI of mobile device may be stored as a “UI profile.” UI profiles may be specific to a particular MFP, designated as a default UI profile for multiple MFPs, and may also be specific to a user. UI profiles may be created, edited, stored, retrieved and deleted.

主权项 1. A mobile device comprising: one or more processors; one or more memories; a display; a wireless communications interface; and a remote multi-function peripheral (MFP) graphical user interface (GUI) application configured to: retrieve, for a particular MFP, capability data that indicates one or more features and options supported by the particular MFP,cause, to be displayed on the display of the mobile device, a graphical user interface that visually depicts the one or more features and options supported by the particular MFP and provides graphical user interface controls for: selecting and de-selecting the one or more features and for specifying one or more options for the one or more features, andstoring, editing, and retrieving profile data that specifies user selection or de-selection, by a user of the mobile device, of the one or more features or the one or more specified options for the one or more features,detect, via the graphical user interface, user selection of the graphical user interface control for storing profile data,in response to detecting selection of the graphical user interface control for storing profile data storing, for the particular MFP, profile data that specifies the user selection or de-selection of the one or more features or the one or more specified options for the one or more features supported by the particular MFP,cause the profile data that specifies the user selection or de- selection of the one or more features or the one or more specified options for the one or more features supported by the particular MFP to be transmitted to the particular MFP, wherein the particular MFP uses the profile to perform a first set of one or more functions at least initiated by a user at the particular MFP,detect, via the graphical user interface, user selection of the graphical user interface control for retrieving the stored profile data for the particular MFP, andin response to detecting selection of the graphical user interface control for retrieving the stored profile data for the particular MFP, retrieve the stored profile data for the particular MFP, and cause the retrieved profile data to be transmitted to the particular MFP and used by the particular MFP to perform a second set of one or more functions at least initiated by the user at the particular MFP.
