Systems and methods for monitoring an imaging job using implicit address discovery
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring an imaging job sent to an imaging device being used by a computer system, the method comprising:
- sending an imaging job to an imaging device;
receiving the imaging job at the imaging device;
discovering an implicit network address from the imaging job;
starting the imaging job at the imaging device; and
sending a status message for the imaging job to the network address.

Abstract
A system for monitoring an imaging job and for implicit network address discovery is disclosed. The system includes a computing device and an imaging device in electronic communication with the computing device. Executable instructions on the imaging device are configured to receive the imaging job sent to the imaging device. An implicit network address is discovered from the imaging job without using an explicit address embedded in the imaging job. The imaging job is started at the imaging device. A status message for the imaging job is sent to the network address.
