Abstract
Aspects of the present invention relate to systems and methods for remote interaction with an imaging device. According to a first aspect of the present invention, an imaging device may receive, from a remote computing device, an HTTP request for an interface image associated with an interface on the imaging device. A functional replica of the interface, at a time associated with the request, may be sent, to the remote computing device, in an HTTP response. According to a second aspect of the present invention, a computing device may send, to an imaging device, an HTTP request for an interface image, and the computing device may receive, in an HTTP response, an interface image. According to a third aspect of the present invention, a gateway computing device may receive, from a remote computing device, an HTTP request for an interface image associated with an interface on an imaging device. The gateway computing device may request, from the imaging device, update information associated with the interface, and the gateway computing device may convert update information received from the imaging device to an updated interface image.
