Abstract:
A control method for an image forming apparatus configured to perform transmission of information includes performing retransmission of the information a predetermined number of times in a case where the transmission of the information fails, wherein an entry about the retransmission of the information is added to a notification table managed by the image forming apparatus, clearing the entry from the notification table, in a case where the retransmission of the information is completed the predetermined number of times or a case where the image forming apparatus receives a response to the retransmission of the information, and clearing the entry from the notification table in a case where user information necessary for the retransmission of the information is changed.
Abstract:
A communication device that is capable of reducing ineffectual process and load by checking continuity of a SIP session depending on whether a network charges a fee or not. The communication device communicates with another communication device by a predetermined communication protocol. A determination unit determines whether a network used for communication charges a fee or not. A checking unit checks whether the communication continues when the determination unit determines that the network charges a fee. A communication control unit finishes the communication when the checking unit determines that the communication does not continue.
Abstract:
A printing device determines whether a character string indicating argument corresponding to a first command has been registered as a registered virtual printer name, when an optional command of received print data includes the first command indicating a predetermined type of optional command and the character string indicating argument corresponding to the first command, generates a print job that prints the file data by using print settings associated with the registered virtual printer if the character string indicating argument corresponding to the first command has been registered as the virtual printer name, and generates a print job that analyzes the character string indicating argument corresponding to the first command and prints the file data by using the print settings specified based on the analyzed result if the character string indicating argument corresponding to the first command has not been registered as the virtual printer name.
Abstract:
When an IP address for use in an infrastructure connection mode and an IP address for use in a direct connection mode overlap each other, there is a possibility that an information processing apparatus incorrectly transmits data to an interface different from an interface supposed to receive the data. Thus, the information processing apparatus is prohibited from operating in the direct connection mode in a case where the IP address for use in the infrastructure connection mode and the IP address for use in the direct connection mode overlap each other.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus (MFP) performs communication control for receiving an advertisement (ADV) packet transmitted from a mobile terminal while regularly transmitting an ADV packet that includes service information regarding a service provided by the information processing apparatus, in conformity with the BLE standard. In this state, every time the MFP detects an ADV packet that designates the information processing apparatus as a communication partner in BLE communication, the MFP performs communication control for transmitting a connection request to the mobile terminal that is the transmission source of the ADV packet as a response to the detected ADV packet. The MFP thus serves as a master to establish a BLE connection with each mobile terminal.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus comprises: a power control unit that, when the information processing apparatus operates in a first power mode, controls to supply power to both a first control unit and a second control unit, and when the information processing apparatus operates in a second power mode in which a power consumption is smaller than that in the first power mode, controls to supply power to the second control unit, wherein when the information processing apparatus operates in the second power mode, the second control unit can respond to a status request of a first type in which specific identification information is designated and a status request of a second type in which specific identification information is designated while maintaining the second power mode.
Abstract:
A communication device that allows a proxy reception device to perform proxy reception of data directed to the communication device. The communication device establishes a SIP protocol-based session through a call controller connected to a network and performs data communication. The communication device holds proxy reception device destination information representing an IP address of the proxy reception device that performs proxy reception of data transmitted to a SIP URI of the communication device, and registers, into the call controller, registration information comprised of communication device destination information and proxy reception device destination information according to which the communication device sends proxy reception instruction information that instructs to perform proxy reception to the proxy reception device.
Abstract:
The image forming apparatus operations include setting a setting value for communication with a server based on a user operation and receiving an event notification in either one of a server push method and a pull method based on the setting value. In the server push method, the event notification is received from the server via a communication session established and being kept between the image forming apparatus and the server, and in the pull method an event acquisition request is transmitted from the image forming apparatus to the server and the event notification is received as a response to the event acquisition request. In a case where the event notification indicating the occurrence of a print job is received, the print job is acquired, and in a case where the server push method is rejected by the server, the event notification is received in the pull method.
Abstract:
An MFP communicates with a DNS server through a network. This MFP includes an operation unit that sets whether a printing service is activated or not and a controller unit that registers search information in which capability information provided for a client terminal and information relating to name resolution are associated with each other in the DNS server in accordance with activation of the printing service being set by this operation unit.
