ABSTRACT:
The method generates and displays an adaptive graphical user interface of a current configuration and current capabilities of a networked peripheral device connected to a local area network. The method includes the steps of requesting from a user's work station a current configuration and current capabilities of a networked peripheral device, transmitting, in response to the request, an interrogation command to the networked peripheral device over the local area network, and receiving, from the networked peripheral device, information corresponding to a current configuration and capabilities of the networked peripheral device. The method further includes retrieving peripheral device configuration and capabilities from libraries based on the received information and generating a graphical user interface using data within the retrieved libraries, and displaying a graphical user interface including a representative graphical image of the networked peripheral device in its current configuration and with its current capabilities.
