Method and system for creating a graphic user interface for controlling, configuring and/or diagnosing an electrophotographic copying or printing apparatus

摘要

In a method or system for loading of program data for a graphical user interface for operation or for diagnosis of a printer or copier, first data are stored in a first storage region of a first data processing unit. The first data are transferred from the first data processing unit to a second data processing unit of an operating unit, the first data containing at least specifications about at least one program module necessary for generation of operation or diagnosis functions. With help of the second data processing unit, it is checked whether second data that contain the program module are contained in the second storage region of the second data processing unit. A version state of the program module stored as second data in the second storage region is compared with a version state of the necessary program module. Given non-existent second data in the second storage region and given inconsistent version states, the second data are transferred from a third storage region of the first data processing unit to the second data processing unit. Instructions of the program module are executed by the second data processing unit.
