摘要： There is provided a device management system suitable for accurately calculating an average consumption quantity of toner and the like per print sheet and thereby accurately calculating a printing cost depending on use environments. A network printer 200 detects a remaining quantity of toner and the like, a total number of printed sheets and a total number of activations, and send status information including the detection results to a printer management server 100. When receiving the status information, the printer management server 100 registers the received status information with a status information registration table 400, and calculates an average consumption quantity by calculating the total consumption quantity of toner and the like, the total number of printed sheets and the total number of activations within an appointed period based on the status information registration table 400, multiplying the total number of activations by the consumption-quantity-during-activation calculation coefficient k 1 and dividing the multiplication result added to the total consumption quantity of toner and the like by the total number of printed sheets.

摘要： To provide a device monitoring system, device monitoring program, and device monitoring method which can monitor device status quickly without increasing the load on device management servers or increasing network traffic.
Devices 10 connected to a network N are provided with a device monitoring function 20 for monitoring another device 10 and notifying a device management server 12 or a third device 10 of any abnormality. This eliminates the need for periodic interrogations of devices 10 by the device management server 12 and responses from the devices 10 unlike conventional schemes, and thus avoids increases in the load on the device management server 12 and in network traffic even if the number of devices 10 increases.

摘要： A device-sharing system easily shares devices in a network environment. When a device management server 100 receives a provide-service request, it identifies, based on service information, the network device 210 connected to the home gateway 200 and the network device 210 linked thereto to provide a service as service-related devices, and reads and returns service information for the service-related devices. When the gateway 200 receives the service information in reply to the provide-service request sent to the administration server 100, it displays a service list based on the received service information. When a service is selected from the displayed service list, the gateway relays communication between the device 210 connected to the gateway 200 and the identified service-related device based on the device-to-device communication information contained in the received service information for the selected service.

摘要： An authenticated printing apparatus issues a request for a print job to a job holding apparatus that stores print jobs in association with job-specific information, the print job corresponding to job-specific information obtained from an authenticated user, and executes printing on the basis of the print job obtained in response to the request. The authenticated printing apparatus includes a first list storing unit that stores first list information of job holding apparatuses as destinations of requests for print jobs; a first list creating unit that carries out simultaneous communications to check for presence of job holding apparatuses via a communication network and creates the first list information on the basis of results of the simultaneous communications; and a requesting unit that issues a request for a print job to a print-job holding apparatus registered in the first list information with reference to the first list storing unit, the print job corresponding to job-specific information obtained from an authenticated user.
