What is claimed is: 1. A computer program product comprising a computer storage medium and a computer program code mechanism embedded in the computer storage medium which when executed by a computer, causes a printer to perform a method of controlling a configuration of the printer, comprising: receiving a request for a printer control interface from a computer remote from the printer; sending the printer control interface to the remote computer, wherein the printer control interface is in the form of a Web page; receiving, from the computer remote from the printer, a series of printer control parameters in response to sending the printer control interface; and updating a control memory of the printer based on the series of printer control parameters. 2. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, further comprising: storing the series of printer control parameters in the control memory of the printer based on an identification of the remote computer. 3. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, further comprising: storing the series of printer control parameters in the control memory of the printer based on an Internet address of the remote computer. 4. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, further comprising: storing the series of printer parameters in a database. 5. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to a paper size. 6. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to tray selection. 7. The computer program product as claimed in claim 1, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to an image type. 8. An image forming device, comprising: an interface configured to receive a request for a control interface from a computer remote from the image forming device; an interface configured to send the control interface to the remote computer, wherein the control interface is in the form of a Web page; an interface configured to receive, from the computer remote from the image forming device, a series of control parameters in response to sending the control interface; and a processor configured to update a control memory of the image forming device based on the series of control parameters. 9. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to store the series of control parameters in the control memory of the image forming device based on an identification of the remote computer. 10. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to store the series of printer control parameters in the control memory of the image forming device based on an Internet address of the remote computer. 11. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to store the series of printer parameters in a database. 12. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to a paper size. 13. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to tray selection. 14. The image forming device of claim 8, wherein the series of printer control parameters correspond to an image type.
