Embodiments of the present invention comprise systems and methods for third-party administrative control of remote imaging jobs and imaging devices. In some embodiments, administrative controls may be used in conjunction with the remote user interface features to restrict access to the imaging device by remote user devices, remote user interface applications, and/or walkup users. In other embodiments, a server may provide a discovery process for imaging devices coupled thereto and may maintain a central repository for device capabilities information. The server may further emulate remote user interface capabilities for those imaging devices that do not directly support such features. In still other embodiments, a monitor process may be spawned to monitor status of the imaging device and jobs thereon and to control the state of job processing on the imaging device.
