A method, system, and program product for communicating with machines and end users connected to a network. Information sent to or from the machines is transmitted using electronic mail or a via a direct connection. The electronic mail may be transmitted over the Internet to a service center or from a service center to a resource administrator, but also may remain within a local or wide area network for transmission between a machine and an end user or a resource administrator. E-mail messages may be transmitted from a computer which is attached to a device which is being monitored or controlled and include information regarding the status, usage or capabilities of the attached device. The device may send status messages and usage information of the device by an end user to either a resource administrator or to a service center on the Internet through a firewall.

1. A method of monitoring usage of an image output device, comprising: receiving, from an image output device, a real-time status message transmitted using an Internet application-layer protocol over a network, the received message including usage information related to usage of the image output dev
1. A method of monitoring usage of an image output device, comprising: receiving, from an image output device, a real-time status message transmitted using an Internet application-layer protocol over a network, the received message including usage information related to usage of the image output device by a registered user of the image output device, the usage information being at least one of information of a capability of the image output device, status information of the image output device, and an alert;extracting, from the received message, identifying information of the image output device;extracting, from the received message, the usage information related to the usage of the image output device by the registered user;storing the extracted usage information in association with the identifying information in a database; andtransmitting a message over the network to a predetermined destination, when the extracted usage information indicates that a usage level of the registered user exceeds a predetermined threshold. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the image output device is one of a copier and a printer. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of extracting identifying information comprises: extracting a device identifier of the image output device;extracting model information of the image output device; andextracting device type information of the image output device. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising: extracting, from the received message, page count information of the registered user of the image output device. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: extracting, from the received message, total page count information of the image output device, wherein the total page count information includes the total page count since a last report. 6. A system, comprising: a computer including a processor configured to receive, from an image output device, a real-time status message transmitted using an Internet application-layer protocol over a network, the received message including usage information related to usage of the image output device by a registered user of the image output device, the usage information being at least one of information of a capability of the image output device, status information of the image output device, and an alert;extract, from the received message, identifying information of the image output device;extract, from the received message, the usage information related to the usage of the image output device by the registered user;store the extracted usage information in association with the identifying information in a database; andtransmit a message over the network to a predetermined destination, when the extracted usage information indicates that a usage level of the registered user exceeds a predetermined threshold. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the image output device is one of a copier and a printer. 8. The system of claim 6, wherein, in extracting the identifying information, the processor is further configured to: extract a device identifier of the image output device;extract model information of the image output device; andextract device type information of the image output device. 9. The system of claim 6, wherein the processor is further configured to: extract, from the received message, page count information of the registered user of the image output device. 10. The system of claim 6, wherein the processor is further configured to: extract, from the received message, total page count information of the image output device, wherein the total page count information includes the total page count since a last report. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the usage information includes page count information of the registered user, and the transmitting step comprises transmitting an email message to the registered user when the page count information for the user exceeds a predetermined percentage of a predetermined page count limit. 12. The method of claim 1, further comprising: registering the user as an authorized user of the image output device. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the usage information includes page count information and the transmitting step comprises transmitting the message when the extracted page count information exceeds the predetermined threshold.
