摘要:
According to one embodiment, a server apparatus includes a storage unit, a communication unit, and a controller. The storage unit stores print jobs received from an external apparatus. The communication unit transmits the print job stored in the storage unit, in response to a print request for the print job from any image forming apparatus, to the image forming apparatus which is a print request source. The controller changes the print job of which a storage limit expires among the print jobs stored in the storage unit into a deleted print job so as to have a temporary storage limit.

According to one embodiment, a document managing system includes a communication unit, a printing unit, a reading unit, a document-management-information storing unit, a discarding-information storing unit, an informing unit, and a management-information analyzing unit. The reading unit reads a document recorded on a recording medium and acquires a document file. The document-management-information storing unit stores, together with the document file, document management information including a confidentiality level of the document. The discarding-information storing unit stores plural kinds of discarding information for discarding a plurality of the recording media each of which is different depending on the confidentiality level of the document. The management-information analyzing unit acquires the discarding information corresponding to the confidentiality level of the document read by the reading unit and informing the discarding information from the informing unit.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus judges whether an identical part is included in the key and the printing contents, based on the result of comparing a previously stored key with the printing contents of a received print job. When the apparatus judges that an identical part is included, the apparatus stores the received print job in a private print job queue for private printing. When the apparatus judges that an identical part is not included, the apparatus stores the received print job in an ordinary print job queue for ordinary printing.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus judges whether the number of pages to print exceeds the number as a reference to judge whether to print many pages based on the setting of a confidential document print job, when receiving the print job. When the number of pages to print exceeds the reference number, the image forming apparatus ejects printed paper sheets to a housing box having a key unit to lock not to be taken out from the main body together with printed confidential documents. When the number of pages to print does not exceed the reference number, the apparatus performs a private print which starts printing and ejecting printed paper sheets to the paper eject unit after receiving an instruction from a user.
摘要:
Management of a transferred document in a unit of the number of copies is realized, if first transfer management information indicating information concerning transfer processing applied to an original document in the past is included in image data of the original document, the first transfer management information is acquired. Second transfer management information, which is obtained by adding information concerning transfer processing performed on the basis of the acquired image data to content indicated by the acquired first transfer management information, is separately generated according to the number of copies of transferred documents obtained by transferring the original document such that the second transfer management information is peculiar to each of the transferred documents. To a transferred document obtained by the transfer processing based on the acquired image data, the second transfer management information generated in association with the transferred document is granted.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus performs a user authentication process and performs a private print process according to a request from an authenticated user. When the user requests interruption of the private print which is now performed or it is detected that the user has left a place near the image forming apparatus while the private print is being performed, the image forming apparatus interrupts the private print which is now performed and stores a print state at the interruption time. Further, the image forming apparatus performs a user authentication process and re-starts the private print which is interrupted in response to a re-start request from the authenticated user.
摘要:
A method and apparatus of printing a document in a secure manner, includes receiving, by a printer, print data that has been encrypted using a printer public key. The printer-public-key-encrypted print data is decrypted by the printer using a printer secret key, to obtain decrypted print data as well as user identification information provided with the print data. Print pre-processing is performed by the printer on the decrypted print data, to thereby obtain pre-processed print data. The pre-processed print data is encrypted by the printer using a user secret key to obtain user-public-key-encrypted print data, and the user-public-key-encrypted print data is stored. The user-public-key-encrypted print data is decrypted and printed by the printer upon receipt of a user secret key, prior to printing the print data.
摘要:
It is an object of the invention to provide a management apparatus for an image forming apparatus that can automatically determine an installation location of the image forming apparatus on the basis of individual authentication information according to an access to the image forming apparatus by a regular user even if the image forming apparatus is moved. The management apparatus for the image forming apparatus of the invention acquires user information of a user authenticated by an image forming apparatus, acquires apparatus information of the image forming apparatus that have authenticated the user information, and specifies an installation location of the image forming apparatus on the basis of the user information acquired and the apparatus information.
