Abstract:
In a communication system, an image forming apparatus sends an address of a receiving section to an external device. The external device receives a selection of image data through plural thumbnails displayed on a display section, and wirelessly sends the selected image data to the image forming apparatus with the address. The image forming apparatus receives the selected image data and prints an image. The image forming apparatus accepts a selection indicating whether a communication between the external device and the image forming apparatus is performed either by a first or second communication system method. The image forming apparatus performs sending and/or receiving the image data with the address by the first communication system method when the first communication system method is selected, and performs sending and/or receiving the image data with the address by the second communication system method when the second communication system method is selected.
Abstract:
A device management terminal includes: an imaging section that images an electronic device placed at an installation location; a specific information acquisition section that acquires, from a server, specific information for specifying the electronic device that is being imaged; a status information acquisition section that acquires status information from the electronic device that is being imaged based on the specific information; and a display section that displays, on a screen, the acquired status information together with the electronic device that is being imaged.
Abstract:
An information processing system including an information processing apparatus that selects between transferring data and obtaining data, and controls transferring data or obtaining data based on the selection. The system also includes a server that stores data transferred from the information processing apparatus, and controls transferring data to the information processing apparatus based on a request for transferring data received from the information processing apparatus.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a creating unit that creates a plurality of files different in file format from identical setting information stored in a storage unit of the apparatus, a receiving unit that receives at least one of the created plurality of files, a determination unit that determines a file to be used among the plurality of received files according to at least one of the file formats of the plurality of files and dates of updates of the plurality of files, and an updating unit that updates the stored setting information using the determined file.
Abstract:
In embodiments disclosed herein disclose methods and systems for providing a multitenant facsimile server. The computer instructions may be executable to maintain a set of entity information, wherein the entity information defines a plurality of tenants, and maintain a database configured to store transmitted and received fax documents corresponding to a plurality of tenants. The computer instructions may be further executable to receive a facsimile document at the fax server, wherein the facsimile document comprises one of a document to be transmitted or a received fax. The computer instructions may be further executable to identify a tenant associated with the document based on an identifier. Further, the computer instructions may be executable to store the document in the database, wherein the document is associated with the tenant in the database.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus may communicate with a communication-target device, which is a device with which the information processing apparatus is to communicate, via a first type interface section. The information processing apparatus may store in a first storage area target identification information for identifying the communication-target device as a default identification information, in a case where a first network to which the communication-target device is belonging is identical to a second network to which the information processing apparatus is belonging via the second type interface section. The target identification information may be stored in association with at least one of a plurality of attributes. The information processing apparatus may cause the target identification information not to be stored in the first storage area as the default identification information in a case where the first network is not identical to the second network.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a communication unit, a scanning unit, an issuing unit, a storage unit, an information receiving unit, an identification unit, an authentication unit, and a communication control unit. The image data number issuing unit issues a unique image data number for image data. A user inputs the image data number of the image data, cloud information, a login ID, and a password into an external terminal. The external terminal transmits the input content to the image forming apparatus. The login authentication unit performs authentication on a cloud identified by the target cloud identification unit using the transmitted login ID and password. When login is successful, the upload control unit transmits the image data of the image data number to the cloud.
Abstract:
A server device includes a print history database; an information adding unit for adding, as invisible information, first information for specifying image data and second information about a server address; a first print data transmitting unit for transmitting, to a print server, the image data to which the invisible information is added; an image storage unit for storing image data which corresponds to the first information; a list generating unit for generating a list of the print product based on a print history of the image data specified by the first information read from the invisible information by a terminal device; a selected information receiving unit for receiving product specifying information that specifies the print product selected from the list of the terminal device; and a second print data transmitting unit for transmitting the print data on the print product specified by the product specifying information.
Abstract:
A data processor is configured to perform wireless communication with a relay transmitter, store a first physical address for the relay transmitter on a storage unit, receive a second physical address for the relay transmitter from the relay transmitter after the data processor being turned on, determine whether the second physical address for the relay transmitter is identical to the first physical address for the relay transmitter, and, when one or more authentication requirements is satisfied, establish wireless connection with the relay transmitter so as to achieve the data communication with an external device via the wireless communication with the relay transmitter. The authentication requirement includes the determination that the second physical address for the relay transmitter is identical to the first physical address for the relay transmitter.
Abstract:
A multi-function device may be connected with a color printer capable of printing in a communicable manner. The multi-function device may be configured to store identification information of the color printer, to color-scan an object to be scanned, to monochrome-print based on first image data representing an scanned object, to allow a user to input an instruction, and to send second image data representing a color-scanned object with the identification information of the color printer as a destination if a predetermined instruction is input.
