Abstract:
A method and system for providing a first network resource with secure but limited access to a second network resource. A method embodying the invention includes receiving, from a client, a request to access the first resource. The client is then directed to an authorization service. The authorization service generates an authorization ticket and provides the authorization ticket to the first resource. On behalf of the first resource, the authorization ticket is presented to the second resource with a request to access the second resource. The request is granted only if it can be verified that the authorization ticket was generated by a source trusted by the second resource.
Abstract:
A server system and a printing device are described. The server system can obtain environmental data that describes at least one environmental condition. The server system can transmit first data to the printing device. The first data is based upon the environmental data.
Abstract:
A printing device can transmit authentication data to a client computer remotely connected to the printing device. The authentication data can be used by the client computer to authenticate itself to a server computer.
Abstract:
An image-printing device includes a connection bay that accepts an insertable consumable resource. The consumable resource includes an option key that identifies at least one mode of operation associated with the consumable resource. The connection bay outputs at least one signal associated with the mode of operation when the consumable resource is inserted. A controller receives the signal associated with the mode of operation and in response outputs display information suitable for use by a display to indicate a selectable availability of the at least one mode of operation.
Abstract:
A computer-readable medium has a program available thereon for causing a suitably programmed information-handling system to detect the presence of a print job, and post the print job at a selected rendezvous point.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system and a method for controlling device printing modes pertain to receiving a request to change a printing mode of a printing device, generating a signed request that requests changing of the printing mode, validating the signed request, and enabling or disabling the printing mode in accordance with the signed request if the signed request is valid.
Abstract:
A computer implemented method by which a user edits and delivers a print job in a computer system, the method including providing a printing software object as a COM component for editing and delivering a print job and providing job data of the print job to the printing software object, by a print job creator, in the form of references to pages. The references to pages are used by the software printing object, to call and display the pages on a need basis. The user edits the job data of the print job based on the displayed pages and the print job is delivered for processing in accordance with the edited job data.
Abstract:
Memory integrated into a removable cartridge for an image forming device contains image enhancement data identifying an image enhancement technique. In a method embodiment, the data is read, and the image enhancement technique identified by the image enhancement data is implemented. In another embodiment, the image enhancement data includes a parameter. The image enhancement data is read, and an image enhancement technique is implemented according to the parameter.
Abstract:
A printer driver is determined according to a received printer identification. A content type that identifies the printer driver and the capabilities of the printer driver is then generated and returned.
