摘要:
A portable printer contains a print controller that acquires first ID of a first character printed in advance on an instant film from a wireless tag embedded in the instant film; acquires second ID of a second character contained in image data to be printed on the instant film from a header of the image data. The print controller makes a judgment based on a print permission table and the IDs of the first and second characters as to whether an image based on the image data is permitted to be printed together on the instant film. The print controller then performs an output based on a result of the judgment. The print permission table is stored in a storage portion and indicates whether the first character and the second character are allowed to be printed on a common instant film.

A method of controlling a peer-to-peer (P 2 P) connection of an image forming apparatus that supports the P 2 P connection includes: receiving in the image forming apparatus a P 2 P connection request from an external wireless device; checking a device type of the wireless device by the image forming apparatus; determining whether the device type corresponds to connection restricted device types; and when the device type is the connection restricted device type, blocking a P 2 P connection to the wireless device by the image forming apparatus, and when the device type is not the connection restricted device type, P 2 P connecting the image forming apparatus to the wireless device.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus, includes a transmission unit that transmits image information; a first display control unit that controls, when a plurality of recipients to transmit the image information to are designated, a display unit to display a first list including the plurality of recipients; and a second display control unit that controls the display unit to display the contents of the first list in a different manner, in a case where the first list cannot be fitted within a single screen of the display unit.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus is provided with a specifying unit, an output control unit, and an event detecting unit. The specifying unit specifies an operator who inputs an output request for outputting an output object. The output control unit controls an output process in accordance with the output request. The event detecting unit detects an event having a possibility that the operator stops immediate output of the output request. Even in a case where the output control unit is instructed from the operator to perform an immediate output process of the output request when the operator is specified and where the operator is specified, the output control unit stops the immediate output process of the output request in a case where the event detecting unit detects the event.
摘要:
A control method for controlling an image forming apparatus, adding an additional information to an image, outputting the image to which the additional information is added in the adding step, a designating step of designating a user, determining whether a user of the image forming apparatus is the user designated in the designating step, and permitting to set not to add the additional information in a case where it is determined that the user of the image forming apparatus is the user designated in the designating step.
摘要:
An apparatus includes a reading unit that reads a first value indicating usage of the apparatus from a portable storage medium, a use limiting unit that updates the first value according to use of the apparatus and limits use of the apparatus when the updated first value reaches a predetermined value, and a writing unit that writes the updated first value into the portable storage medium.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus (1) includes: a job control unit (16) configured to impose an execution restriction on a job if the number of simultaneously-executed jobs on a function-to-function basis reaches an upper limit value; a guaranteed job count setting unit (161) configured to set a guaranteed job count, wherein the guaranteed job count provides a guaranteed number of simultaneously-executable jobs on a function-to-function basis; and a shared job count setting unit (162) configured to set a shared job count that can be allocated in common to respective functions, which provides the number of simultaneously-executable jobs.
摘要:
A camera including a processor and an image sensor, memory device, and communication port that are electrically coupled with the processor. The image sensor captures image data and transmits it to the processor, which sends it to the memory device for storage. After the image data is downloaded from the camera through the communication port, the processor becomes disabled. Preferably, the memory device is a volatile memory device that is permanently connected with a power supply. Preferably, the communication port is a standard USB receptacle. Preferably, the image data is deleted from the memory device after it is downloaded from the camera. Preferably, the camera includes a sealed housing that contains the processor, image sensor and memory device.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus including applications and system side software for providing system side services to the applications is provided, in which the image forming apparatus includes: an authentication module for displaying an authentication screen on an operation panel of the image forming apparatus, wherein the authentication module allows the image forming apparatus to display a screen for using the image forming apparatus instead of the authentication screen if authentication data input from the authentication screen satisfies an authentication condition, and wherein the authentication module is provided in the image forming apparatus separately from the system side software.
