    摘要: A method and system for tracking and controlling the distribution of information on a networked system. The method includes scanning at least one job on a multi-function peripheral device, sending the at least one job to a destination device, sending the at least one job to a storage remote from the destination device, and storing the at least one job in the storage. In certain embodiments, the storage is at least partially secure from a user.

    摘要: Systems and methods for estimating the amount of imaging material, such as toner, used in a printing device. In one example, a system estimates toner usage from imaging data and accounts for a “diffusion effect” caused by non-adjacent pixel groups. In certain embodiments, the system examines sets of pixel locations within a page. For example, the system may evaluate each set of eight adjacent pixel locations (i.e., a byte of information) on a page. For each pixel location set, the system determines a proximity factor that is indicative of the number of independent pixel groups within the respective pixel location set. The system then calculates a proximity value based on at least a portion of the proximity factors and uses the proximity value and a pixel count for the page to estimate a toner usage amount.

    摘要: The invention relates to the authentication of user privileges for a multi-function peripheral (MFP) device using biometric data. A method is provided for capturing an identifying digital representation of a biometric member and comparing it to an authenticating digital representation of a biometric member saved previously. In addition to granting access to the operations of the MFP device, embodiments of the invention may be implemented that grant a user of the MFP device access to certain device privileges based on the biometric authentication. Additional layers of identifying information, including additional biometric comparisons, alphanumeric passwords/PINS, etc. are also contemplated by embodiments of the invention. Other embodiments contemplate storing the authenticating information on the MFP device, on a memory on a device in data communication with the MFP device, and on personal memory carried by the user of the MFP.

    摘要: Systems and method for providing integrated fax and voice messaging are provided. At the time a fax request is created, a user can enter one or more voice messages to accompany the fax message to be played upon delivery. The audio message is integrated into the fax message as digital sound data. Upon receiving an integrated fax message, a receiving fax device separates the audio data from the fax data. The fax data is printed, and the recipient may listen to the audio message.

    摘要: To prevent rubbing of the printing mechanism against still wet ink on a buckled or curled sheet of an absorbent print medium after an inkjet printer has printed one swath of a high density image, printing of the next swath is delayed as a function of the maximum density of the ink drops deposited on the print medium for the printed swath(s). The required delay in printing the next swath is dependent on print mode and preferably uses a formula with empirically derived constants to allow sufficient time for the solvent in the ink to evaporate or otherwise disperse and to permit any buckling or curling of the print medium to stabilize. In one preferred embodiment, a maximum density is calculated by counting drops of ink in each of several overlapping grids, and the magnitude and location of the maximum density grid on a prior page is also used to limit the throughput of a next page until a sufficient delay has elapsed to ensure that ink on the prior page will not be smeared when it comes into contact with the next page.
