Abstract:
A method for routing a confirmation of receipt of a facsimile or portion thereof according to one embodiment of the present invention includes analyzing text of a facsimile; detecting at least one document feature of the facsimile based on the analysis; comparing one or more detected document features to a plurality of document features, each of the plurality of document features corresponding to one or more known document types; and routing the confirmation to one or more destinations based on at least one of the comparison and the analysis.Systems and computer program products are also presented.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes, a reception unit configured to receive an instruction to transfer the information processing apparatus to the second power state, an analysis unit configured, when the reception unit receives the instruction, to analyze a factor limiting the transfer of the information processing apparatus to the second power state, and a control unit configured, when the analysis unit analyzes the factor and as a result the factor is a first factor, to control the information processing apparatus to transfer to the third power state without waiting until the factor is resolved, and configured, when the factor is a second factor, to control the information processing apparatus to wait until the factor is resolved, and to transfer to the second power state.
Abstract:
An efficient method and system to enhance digital acquisition devices for analog data is presented. The enhancements offered by the method and system are available to the user in local as well as in remote deployments yielding efficiency gains for a large variety of business processes. The quality enhancements of the acquired digital data are achieved efficiently by employing virtual reacquisition. The method of virtual reacquisition renders unnecessary the physical reacquisition of the analog data in case the digital data obtained by the acquisition device are of insufficient quality. The method and system allows multiple users to access the same acquisition device for analog data. In some embodiments, one or more users can virtually reacquire data provided by multiple analog or digital sources. The acquired raw data can be processed by each user according to his personal preferences and/or requirements. The preferred processing settings and attributes are determined interactively in real time as well as non real time, automatically and a combination thereof.
Abstract:
A method for routing a confirmation of receipt and/or delivery of a facsimile or portion thereof according to one embodiment includes generating text of a facsimile in a computer readable format; ascertaining one or more of a significance and a relevance of at least a portion of the text by locating one or more keywords in the text, wherein at least two of the keywords are not adjacent in the text; analyzing the text for at least one of a meaning and a context of the text; and routing at least one confirmation of receipt and/or delivery of the facsimile to one or more confirmation destinations based on the analysis. Additional disclosed embodiments include systems and computer program products configured to similarly route confirmation of receipt and/or delivery of a facsimile or a portion thereof.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus comprising a reading unit, a detection unit, and a control unit, when the detection unit detects a closed state of the reading unit after the reading unit is opened in a reading operation by the reading unit, if the reading operation is able to be restarted from a state of suspension in which a conveyance of the document by the reading unit is suspended, the control unit controls the reading unit to restart the reading operation from the state of suspension.
Abstract:
An image reading lens includes a front lens group of five lenses including a positive lens and a negative lens, disposed on an object side and a rear lens group disposed on an image side, including a negative plastic lens. The image reading lens satisfies the following conditions: 0
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention acquires a file from a file generation apparatus and also acquires address book information including a facsimile number from an apparatus having a facsimile function. Then, the information processing apparatus extracts a character string from a predetermined position in a file name of the acquired file and collates the extracted character string with the acquired address book information to identify a facsimile number of a transmission destination of the acquired file.
Abstract:
A facsimile apparatus includes a data acquisition section, a timer section, an image processing section, a storage section, a fax transmission section, a reference time changing section, and a time modifying section. When the reference time changing section changes a reference time in the middle of fax transmission from the fax transmission section to a destination, the time modifying section standardizes times of day for use in generating time-stamp representations to be synthesized on all pieces of page data being subject to the fax transmission to the times of day in either the reference time before or after being changed. Thus, a facsimile apparatus as the destination obtains images of the pieces of page data to which their respective time-stamp representations indicating the transmission times of day having consistency with the reference time either before or after being changed are attached.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a receiving unit configured to receive data via a network, a printing unit configured to print an image based on the data received from the receiving unit, and a control unit configured to control the receiving unit to refuse a data reception based on a simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) when a toner remaining amount for the printing unit is less than a predetermined value, wherein the printing unit is configured to print, in the case that the receiving unit receives page description language (PDL) data, an image based on the received PDL data even if the toner remaining amount is less than the predetermined value.
Abstract:
A management server receives a server instruction inquiry from an image forming apparatus, and transmits a communication switching instruction to the image forming apparatus as a response to the server instruction inquiry, such that the communication switching instruction switches the communication system for communicating with the image forming apparatus to push communication. After push communication has been established by conducting an initial communication with the image forming apparatus according to the communication switching instruction, the management server issues server instructions to the image forming apparatus by push communication.
