Abstract

An image processing device is provided that generates a graphical user interface includingat least one image element that enables receipt of a data value of a particular type therein, the graphical user interface being generated in response to selecting a processing job to be performed by the image processing device. The generated graphical user interface is mirrored to a mobile computing device by transmitting data representative of the graphical user interface to a mobile computing device via a short distance communication protocol. A return data object is received, via the short distance communication protocol, that represents a modified graphical user interface including the at least one image element having the data value of the particular type, the data value having been provided using mobile computing device. The image processing device initiates execution of the processing job to generate job data and automatically associating the data value derived from the modified graphical user interface with the generated job data.
