Abstract
A system and method for transmitting screenshots from a multifunction peripheral to detail pages for downloadable applications on an application store includes a selectively enabled key on the multifunction peripheral that allows a user to capture a screenshot of an application that is executing on the multifunction peripheral, and a controller of the multifunction peripheral that is configured to generate the screenshot and metadata identifying the executing application associated with the screenshot. The controller sends the screenshot and the metadata to the application store which uses the metadata to determine which detail page is associated with the executing application. The application store then adds the screenshot to the identified detail page.
