Zusammenfassung:An imaging system 10 (eg printer) includes a firmware-based internal page component 16. The internal page component 16 is capable of receiving and registering internal page data from a source 18 external to the page component 16 itself. The internal page component 16 can install a control panel display menu item corresponding to the registered internal page, and then capture user control panel input relating to that page. The component can then open a data pipe, and invoke the internal page data. The data pipe can be provided in the form of a VIO channel, e.g., invoking a print job, or can involve converting internal page data to a format capable of being viewed by a web browser.
