  • Operator-defined visitation sequence of client user interface controls
    Patent number: 6964024
    Abstract: A user interface for an image reproducing system that allows the system operator to visit system controls and features in an operator defined order. In this manner, the system operator avoids tabbing or scrolling through unwanted system controls and features. The user interface may utilize an image reproduction operation library that provides visual representations of objects that encapsulate attributes of the imaging system controls and features. The operator may select the visual representations using a pointing device in any desired order to define a preferred image reproduction sequence.
