    Abstract: A method is provided for a multifunctional printing system in which a plurality of jobs are placed in a queue in anticipation of processing the same. The queue, over time, receives jobs of at least a first user type and a second user type. In operation, first and second jobs of the first user type are placed in the queue. When a third job is ready for placement into the queue, a determination as to whether the third job is of the first user type or the second user type is made. If the third job is of the first user type, then it is processed subsequent to the processing of both the first and second jobs; however, if the third job is of the second user type, then the third job is processed ahead of at least the second job.

    Abstract: A print manager system for a copying machine in a network which includes at least one copier machine, at least one terminal, and an object request broker. The copier machine has a CPU for controlling the copier, a memory for storing control programs and a copier machine's appearance data, and a communication device for transferring the appearance data. The appearance data may include a picture of the appearance of the copier, a picture of an operation panel of the copier, and specifications or status information of each device of the copier. The terminal is connected to the copier machine, and has a display device for displaying the data from the copier machine, a pointing device for pointing to a part of the displayed images of the display device, and a communication device for transferring coordinate numerical data of the part of the displayed images pointed to by the pointing device to the copier machine. The object request broker is connected to the copier machine and the terminal, and has a CPU controlling the object request broker, a memory storing control programs for controlling the object broker, and a service controller for controlling an interface between the copier machine and the terminal for selecting a best available copier machine for the terminal.

    Abstract: A multi-function device connected to a computer includes a printer for printing on a recording paper, a modem for making facsimile communication, an interface for receiving printing data from the computer, a memory commonly used for the printer and the modem, and a controller for controlling the printer and the modem. The controller determines a capacity remainder of the memory. Further, the controller slows down a speed of receiving printing data from the computer upon determination that the capacity remainder of the memory is below a predetermined level while both of the printer and the modem are in operation.

    Abstract: A multi-function image processing system smooth in operation and high in reliability having the functions of a fax and a printer is disclosed. An image is printed by a print engine, data are transmitted and received by a host interface and processed by a print data processing section which produces print data. The print data are transmitted to the print engine through a printer engine interface. The connection with the public line is controlled by a channel controller. On the other hand, an original is converted into image data by a reader, which image data are processed and print data produced by a fax controller. The print data are transmitted to the print engine by a fax engine interface. The transmission and receiving of the print data and the control data are arbitrated by an engine interface arbiter between the print engine interface and the fax engine interface on one hand and the print engine on the other hand.
