Abstract
A system and method for monitoring and maintenance of networked multifunction peripherals includes a service cloud having a cloud server and cloud edge service including one or more cloud edge servers functioning as a service bus. The service bus subscribes to device state information from the multifunction peripherals and obtains and stores the device state information. Device state information is analyzed and used in conjunction with the cloud server to obtain a software package from the server to the service bus. The service bus subscribes to a software installation messaging system with the multifunction peripherals and delivers the software package to them for installation in conjunction with subscription.
