Abstract:
Provided is an information processing apparatus capable of appropriately deleting a user that does not consent to policy or the like. A user-notifying unit performs a notification for requiring consent from a user registered in a user DB. A response-acquiring unit acquires response information of the user. A re-notification-transmitting unit, when consent response information is not acquired, separately transmits a re-notification to the user. The re-notification includes transmission information for transmitting consent or non-consent re-response information. A re-response-acquiring unit acquires the re-response information corresponding to the transmission information in the re-notification. A user-deleting unit deletes the user from the user DB when the re-response information is not consent.
Abstract:
Provided is an image forming system that is capable of displaying an accurate preview image in pull output. A document-data-receiving unit of a server receives document data from a terminal. A data-type-determining unit determines whether received document data is direct-output data or pull-output data. A document-data-retransmitting unit, when document data is determined to be direct-output data, transmits the document data as is to an image forming apparatus. A model-information-acquiring unit, when document data is determined to be pull-output data, acquires model information from the image forming apparatus. A preview-creating unit performs rasterization of the document data according to the model information, and creates preview data. A preview-transmitting unit transmits preview data that is created by the preview-creating unit to the image forming apparatus.
Abstract:
A pull printing system includes a plurality of storage destination devices that store printing data for pull printing, and a priming data transmitter. The printing data transmitter transmits the printing data for the pull printing to at least one of the plurality of storage destination devices. The printing data transmitter selects a storage destination device to which to transmit the printing data from among the plurality of storage destination devices based on specific conditions of each of the plurality of storage destination devices and on specific requirements with respect to the conditions.
Abstract:
Provided is an information processing apparatus capable of calling functions of a plurality of servers without having to perform authentication every time. An authentication-executing unit, in the case where a function requires authentication in one of the plurality of servers, performs authentication with that server. An integrated-arrangement unit arranges in one application instruction areas that acquire instructions for calling the functions to any one of the plurality of the servers, and further, arranges the instruction areas in which a plurality of the functions that are similar and that require authentication by the authentication-executing unit and/or a plurality of the functions that are to be authenticated in the same server are organized as a folder. An authentication-state-changing unit controls the authentication state in correlation with any one of the folder organized by the integrated-arrangement unit, the application, and the function.
Abstract:
Provided is an information processing apparatus that is capable of changing the processing performance for each customer and executing a series of tasks related to reading of a document. A service-level-information-acquiring unit acquires service-level information from an image forming apparatus. A processing-capacity-changing unit changes the degree of processing capacity by its own apparatus in accordance with the service-level information. The processing-capacity-changing unit also changes the degree of processing capacity by changing a number of allocated execution units of a task-executing unit within a specified time.
Abstract:
Provides is an information processing apparatus that is capable of efficiently executing a series of tasks related to reading a document. In the information processing system according to the present disclosure a document reading apparatus includes a performance-information-transmitting unit that transmits performance information in accordance with a request from the information processing apparatus. An information processing apparatus includes a performance-information-acquiring unit, a task-sharing unit, and a task-execution-control unit. The performance-information-acquiring unit acquires performance information of the document reading apparatus. The task-sharing unit, in accordance with the performance information that is acquired by the performance-information-acquiring unit, determines which tasks of a series of tasks for data of a document that is read by the document reading apparatus will be executed by an own apparatus and by the document reading apparatus, and shares the tasks. The task-execution-control unit causes tasks that are determined by the task-sharing unit to be tasks that will be executed by the own apparatus to be executed by the own apparatus, and causes tasks that are determined to be tasks that will be executed by the document reading apparatus to be executed by the document reading apparatus, and processes the tasks as a series of tasks.
Abstract:
A function providing system for providing a function to an image forming apparatus includes a server and a function relaying circuit. The server provides a function for the image forming apparatus. The function relaying circuit is located outside the image forming apparatus, the function relaying circuit providing the function to the image forming apparatus. The function relaying circuit uses the function corresponding to an instruction from the image forming apparatus, and the function relaying circuit transmits a use result of the function to the image forming apparatus.
Abstract:
Provided is an information processing apparatus that efficiently executes a series of tasks related to reading a document. An information processing system includes an upstream server, image forming apparatuses and a regional server. An apparatus-information-acquiring unit of the upstream server acquires apparatus information from plural image forming apparatuses. A task-sharing unit shares the respective tasks of a series of tasks for document data that is read by a specified image forming apparatus, based on a storage unit that is an apparatus-information-storage unit that stores an ID, position information that indicates a position in a network, and performance information for that image forming apparatuses that is included in the apparatus information. The task-sharing unit, in accordance with the ID and performance information of plural image forming apparatuses, determines and shares tasks so as to be executed by image forming apparatuses that are at nearby positions in the network.
Abstract:
A device registration system includes a network, an image forming apparatus, a mobile terminal communicatively connected to the network via an access point, and a server. The image forming apparatus comprises an image forming apparatus near field communication (NFC) unit configured to perform wireless communication with the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal comprises a mobile terminal NFC unit configured to perform wireless communication with the image forming apparatus. The server is configured to register setting information associated with the image forming apparatus in a search list, wherein the setting information includes (i) position information indicative of a location of the image forming apparatus and (ii) tag information representative of a text label that describes the image forming apparatus.
Abstract:
Provided is a document management system for managing document data by applying access restrictions to each metadata acquired by character recognition of document data to be managed. The mage forming apparatus acquires document data to be managed. The image-processing server performs character recognition of document data and acquires metadata. The image forming apparatus specifies metadata to be concealed in document data. The image forming apparatus receives a security setting, correlates a metadata name to be concealed with the security setting, and transmits the security setting together with document data to the image-processing server. The document-management server, in the case where there is an access request from a user for document data, allows access to the document data based on the security setting by not masking metadata for which there is access authority, and masking metadata for which there is no access authority.
