Abstract: The invention concerns a method and device for configuring an electronic document processing peripheral. The invention concerns more particularly a method of determining a configuration profile for an electronic document processing peripheral with the configuration profile representing a set of parameters defining a particular configuration of the peripheral. To do so, the electronic document processing peripheral determines user characteristics as a function of a user identification of a data item and then determines, as a function of the user characteristics, a configuration profile applicable for configuring the peripheral.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and device for configuring an electronic document processing peripheral. The invention concerns more particularly a method of determining a configuration profile for an electronic document processing peripheral, the configuration profile representing a set of configuration parameters for the peripheral, a set of fixed values of the parameters defining a particular configuration of the peripheral. This method is characterized in that it comprises the following steps: a step of obtaining (504) a user identification data item; a step of determining (506) user characteristics as a function of the user identification data item; a step of determining (508), as a function of the user characteristics, a configuration profile applicable for configuring the peripheral.

Abstract: A method for the transmission of the pages of an electronic document (100) by a client station to a server station connected by a communication network, with a view to the processing of the document by a processing peripheral, includes the steps of sending (S403) to the server station a document processing request; receiving (S405) a page request from the server station, the page request including information identifying a page of the document; translating (S407) orders corresponding to the page identified in the page request into a computer communication language; sending (S409) to the server station a response containing the translated orders corresponding to the identified page.
