Abstract

A method for running an application installed in an external server at an image forming device, comprising: receiving an input of an installation Uniform Resource Locator (URL) at the image forming device; accessing the external server through the installation URL by the image forming device and downloading the The server receives the metadata of the application installed in the external server; verifies the authenticity of the received metadata; when the authenticity is verified, creates an icon corresponding to the application on the user interface of the image forming apparatus; and in the image forming apparatus to run applications installed on external servers.

Description

technical field [0001] The present general inventive concept relates to a method of executing an application installed in an external server in an image forming apparatus. Background technique [0002] There are two main approaches to supporting open platforms in multifunction printers (MFPs). The first way is the method of installing the entire application in the MFP. The second way is a method of installing an application in a separate external server instead, and showing only a user interface (UI) of the application on the MFP. According to this second way, when the user controls the application through the UI shown on the MFP, the MFP communicates with the external server in which the application has been installed, and operates the application. [0003] In the second way, usually the MFP shows the UI of the application to the user through the web browser, and the application installed in the external server gives commands to the MFP by calling the open application pro...
