    摘要: A controller is configured to: perform a registration process for again storing connection information in an intermediary server; after the registration process, perform a transition process of changing a state of a device from a first state to a second state, the first state being a state where setting information is stored in a memory and a service is usable by the device, the second state being a state where intermediary server information is stored in the memory and the connection information and the setting information are not stored in the memory; after the transition process, receive, from the intermediary server, the connection information that is stored again; connect to a target server by using the received connection information and again receive the setting information from the target server; and store, in the memory, the setting information that is received again.

    摘要: A device includes a communication interface and a controller. The controller is configured to obtain connection information for connecting the device with a target server from an external device via the communication interface, connect the device with the target server using the obtained connection information, and in response to failing in an attempt to obtain the connection information, provide an error notification varying depending on at what timing the attempt to obtain the connection information has been made. The controller provides a first error notification when the attempt to obtain the connection information has been made at a first timing. The controller provides a second error notification different from the first error notification when the attempt to obtain the connection information has been made at a second timing different from the first timing.

    摘要: In an example, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a processor of a computing device, may cause the processor to transmit an email message addressed to an email address associated with an image forming apparatus. Example email message may include content to be printed. Further, instructions may cause the processor to receive a confirmation email message from an email print server in response to the transmission of the email message. Example confirmation email message may include a status update mechanism. Furthermore, instructions may cause the processor to execute the status update mechanism. Example status update mechanism may fetch a print job status indicating a progress of printing the content from the email print server and display the fetched print job status in the confirmation email message.

    摘要: A non-transitory storage medium stores a supporting program executable by a computer of an information processing apparatus. The supporting program causes the information processing apparatus to execute obtaining a print setting, generating a character string for displaying indicating at least a part of the obtained print setting, obtaining image data indicating the image of a selected print job, and transmitting the print job and the generated character string for displaying in a state in which the print job and the character string for displaying are associated with each other. The job name and the character string for displaying are displayed on a display of a connected printer in the state in which the job name and the character string for displaying are associated with each other.

    摘要: A printing system provides consumable use estimation for print jobs using an estimation system and the digital front end (DFE) of a printing device. A hybrid consumable use estimation process is enabled that minimizes impact to the production printing at the printing device. The DFE of the printing device generates a consumable use estimate using an estimate job queue and raster image processor (RIP) separate from the normal job queues. The estimate job queue does not generate print data. Using the rendered data, the DFE generates the consumable use estimate and returns it to the estimation system. The printing device then prints the document for the print job and provides the actual consumable use to the estimation system for monitoring and tracking of consumable use. In some instances, the estimation system performs the consumable use estimation when a condition exists at the DFE at the printing device.

    摘要: A server system includes a setting unit configured to, based on an input from a user having first authority, set information indicating whether to permit registration of a printing apparatus based on a registration request from a user having second authority being more limited than the first authority, and a registration processing unit configured to, in a case where a registration request for registering a printing apparatus is received, perform processing for registering the printing apparatus based on the registration request, wherein, in a case where the user who has issued the registration request has the second authority and where the setting unit sets information indicating that the registration of a printing apparatus based on the registration request from the user having the second authority is permitted, the registration processing unit performs the registration of a printing apparatus based on the registration request from the user having the second authority.
