Abstract:
A system for routing data over a network. The system can include a destination device having an address, an origination device, and a destination server. The origination device can be configured to generate a routing application request including a recipient identifier, to transmit the routing application request to a destination server, to receive a routing application from the destination server, and to automatically execute the routing application. The destination server can be configured to create the routing application based on the address of the destination device and preferential formats for routing data to a recipient with the destination device, to receive the routing application request from the origination device, and to transmit the routing application to the origination device.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are described for acquiring data from a peripheral and transferring the data to a host via a network. A disclosed method includes creating and storing a job profile at a host and retrieving and executing the subject job at a selected peripheral. The parameters for executing the job are stored with the job profile and the profile is retrieved from the host at the peripheral via the network. Data is acquired at the peripheral and transmitted to the host in accordance with the TWAIN protocol where it is made available to one or more applications running on the host.
Abstract:
An improved image processing system is provided which receives image data at a computer and transfers that image data to a work flow server for image processing and document distribution. The system uses a work flow web application computer program that receives image data from a scanner, transfers that image data via a native interface or a driver on a client computer to a browser on the client computer, and then sends the data to a network document distribution server which is addressed from the client computer using URL's.
Abstract:
A method of printing includes the steps of: receiving an image data file from an originator at said printer, said image data file including at least one origination identifier; determining if said at least one originator identifier matches an authorization identifier stored in memory of said printer, said authorization identifier corresponding to at least one enable property; and printing said image data file using at least one imaging substance, said imaging substance enabled for said originator.
