Anthony/Smith,
The System Service would help for being able to supply firmware images (resources), although I am also 100% in favor of printers that can do automatic updates.
For the web interface password we'd need something else, perhaps an operation attribute that could be supplied in a Set-Printer-Attributes request to provide a new web interface (admin) password? But this would require a bit of security work on our end...

For instance, a common method amongst the vendors of setting the printer administration password, firmware update method, etc. That would be extremely helpful to their buyers as this can be very troublesome navigating all the myriad of unique vendor management options.
