OA DEVICE, OA SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control an OA device so that desired service of the OA device can sufficiently and easily be expanded from a client computer only through a necessary irreducible interaction. SOLUTION: A mobile agent actuated on the client computer moves to the interpreter of an image processor (S602). At this time, the interpreter of the client computer encodes and sends all instruction sequences and all data in an mobile agent object to the image processor. The interpreter of the image processor restarts LIVE operation from a current program counter in the mobile agent object. The mobile agent calls the print request operation of a printer control object to perform a printing process (S604).
