Abstract:
An extension computing device connects to a multi-function printing (MFP) device to enable additional functionality and capabilities to support the MFP device. Print jobs and other tasks may be performed in the extension computing device so that the MFP device addresses more important tasks in real time. The extension computing device receives and processes a print job without the need to engage the MFP device or its engine. The print job then may be stored in the extension computing device until it is printed on demand by the MFP device. Other applications also may be located in the extension computing device. An extension engine performs tasks to determine when to process the print job in the extension computing device. The extension computing device includes a processor, a print job manager, a storage, an operating system, and input/output capabilities.

Claim (Index 38):
A method for using an extension computing device to print a document at a printing device, the method comprising:\n analyzing a header of a print job; determining whether the print job includes an extension command for document storage according to the header; transferring the print job to the extension computing device from the printing device according to the extension command, wherein the extension command indicates that the print job is not executable by printer firmware on the printing device; processing the print job at the extension computing device to generate a rasterized document image using a raster image processing (RIP) firmware within the extension computing device to render the rasterized document image according to the extension command; and sending the rasterized document image to the printing device without further processing.
