Abstract
A method for operating multiple client printing systems is described. The method includes creating an administration account. The method also includes instantiating a printing manager instance for each of the multiple client printing systems. The multiple client printing systems are associated with the administration account. The method further includes presenting a data structure comprising an object associated with each of the multiple client printing systems. The method additionally includes determining license usage data for the multiple client printing systems based on the printing manager instances. The method also includes presenting the license usage data.
Claims14
A method for operating multiple client printing systems, comprising:
- instantiating a printing manager instance for each of the multiple client printing systems, wherein each printing manager instance manages configuration of printer drivers to utilize printing cloud software for a single client printing system, wherein user permissions data indicates whether a user account has access to view each printing manager instance;
- and
- presenting a data structure comprising an object associated with each of the multiple client printing systems, wherein the data structure includes an administrative account object and printer objects, and wherein the data structure is filtered according to the user permissions data.
A computing device for operating multiple client printing systems, comprising:
- a processor;
- memory in electronic communication with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory, wherein the instructions are executable to:
- instantiate a printing manager instance for each of the multiple client printing systems, wherein each printing manager instance manages configuration of printer drivers to utilize printing cloud software for a single client printing system, wherein user permissions data indicates whether a user account has access to view each printing manager instance;
- and
- present a data structure comprising an object associated with each of the multiple client printing systems, wherein the data structure includes an administrative account object and printer objects, and wherein the data structure is filtered according to the user permissions data.
A non-transitory tangible computer-readable medium storing computer executable code, comprising:
- code for causing a computing device to instantiate a printing manager instance for each of multiple client printing systems, wherein each printing manager instance manages configuration of printer drivers to utilize printing cloud software for a single client printing system, wherein user permissions data indicates whether a user account has access to view each printing manager instance;
- and
- code for causing the computing device to present a data structure comprising an object associated with each of the multiple client printing systems, wherein the data structure includes an administrative account object and printer objects, and wherein the data structure is filtered according to the user permissions data.
