Abstract
A system and method are provided for maintaining a device job history. The method comprises: sending jobs to a device for performance; making a record of the jobs; maintaining the job record after the performance of the job; and, filtering the job record to retain a history associated with a client. The job record may be maintained at the device performing the job, on a server managing jobs sent to the device, or with the client sending the job. The client may choose to monitor such processes as device status, job status, or the communications to the device. In one aspect, the method further comprises viewing the filtered job record. Then, a viewable copy of the filtered job record can be accessed from the client, the server, or a web page associated with the device.
