or provides certain document finishing, such as stapling or
saddle-stitch booklet making.

Second, users want to know a device’s current status—if it
is ready to print or is offline, for instance. Third, they may
also wish to know whether it is equipped with sufficient
supplies, such as ink and media, to be able to produce
their job. Fourth, when the device is shared, they may
wish to know how many other jobs may be lined up ahead
of them.

Manufactures typically provide the user with this
information either via a client software utility that is installed
on the client’s workstation, or via a printer Web page that is
accessed via the Web and a Web browser. Some
manufacturers may also provide software that
automatically indicates (via a pop-up window) when the
user’s job is completed or if there is a problem with the
device, such as depleted media.
