System and method for resetting a counter associated with a component of an image processing device

摘要

Embodiments of the invention include receiving information indicating a component of an image processing device has been installed on the image processing device. Status information associated with the component is stored, the status information indicating the component has been installed on the image processing device. Information is received which indicates an operation performed on the image processing device is completed. In response to receiving the information indicating the operation performed on the image processing device is completed, the component is identified based on the status information. A counter associated with the component is identified and it is determined whether the counter has been reset. In response to determining that the counter has not been reset, an interface element is presented in a graphical user interface on a display of the image processing device, the interface element enabling a user to reset the counter by selecting the interface element.
