摘要:
An operation monitoring apparatus monitors statuses of plural monitoring target apparatus connected to a network, by sending a connection confirmation mail, via a notification server located on the network, receiving the connection confirmation mail and an operation confirmation mail sent from each monitoring target apparatus, storing a scheduled transmission time of a next operation confirmation mail contained in the operation confirmation mail, as part of apparatus information of the monitoring target apparatus and judging, using the scheduled transmission time, whether the next operation confirmation mail has been received. The judgment is not made if a latest connection confirmation mail sent from the operation monitoring apparatus itself has not been received.
摘要:
The present invention provides a monitoring device configured to automatically associate devices forming a multifunctional device with support-contract information. A monitoring device configured to remotely monitor a device to be monitored connected to a network, the monitoring device including registration means which registers a group-identification information associated with an identification information of the device to be monitored, storing means which stores the support-contract information corresponding to the group-identification information, reception means which receives trouble-notification information transmitted from the device to be monitored, the trouble-notification information including the identification information related to the device-to-be-monitored, when a trouble occurs in the device to be monitored, acquisition means that acquires the group-identification information on the basis of a device-identification information of the received trouble-notification information and that acquires support-contract information from the acquired group-identification information, and display means that shows the acquired support-contract information and the trouble-notification information.
摘要:
Image forming unit has a photosensitive drum unit and a developing unit. The photosensitive drum unit has drum shafts extending outward from opposite sides thereof. The developing unit has a through-hole and a drum shaft mounting groove for receiving the drum shafts, and developing unit rotary shafts extending outward from opposite sides thereof. An engagement lever and a toner returning cylinder are provided in the photosensitive drum unit, and a shutter is provided in the developing unit. The toner returning cylinder and the shutter are disposed between the waste toner tank of the photosensitive drum unit and the toner returning pipe of the developing unit so that they are detachable and separable from each other. Further, a mechanism is provided for pressing the developing roller onto the photosensitive drum when the photosensitive drum unit is mounted to the developing unit or when the photosensitive roller is driven.
