摘要:
A system and method for the secure recognition of network devices. The method begins with the receiving of a first communication via a first communication network. The first communication includes identification data representing a network device to be added to a selected network. In response to the identification data, a first data key associated with an initial login of the network device is transmitted and entered into the network device. The identification data entered into the network device is validated and upon validation, the network device is connected so as to enable it for initial data communication via a second network. Via the second network, the network device receives a second data key, which enables the network device for further data communication via the second network.

A system and method for managing documents within a shared peripheral includes a network-based document management system. A document management module of defines a bookmark or symbolic link to a document stored inside or outside a document management module repository. The symbolic link is treated analogously to other documents managed by the document management module. Upon linking to a document networked, the system enables users to download a document stored in the repository to devices including a local machine or network hard drive.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for document processing device status logging. Status data is first received corresponding to operations of an associated document processing device. The received status data is then stored in a suitable storage location. A determination is then made whether a predefined interval occurred. When the interval has occurred, the stored data is deleted or overwritten. When a secondary memory device is received and recognized by the document processing device, the received status data is routed to the secondary memory device, whereupon the status data remains in the storage location until such time as the predefined interval has occurred. When the secondary memory device that was received by the document processing device is not detected or recognized, operations return to awaiting the elapse of the predefined interval or the detection of a recognizable secondary memory device.

Secure printing of print data from a client application residing on a data network to a set top box which has a printer, the set top box residing on a digital cable network which has a cable head end for interfacing the digital cable network to the data network, wherein print data is generated in the client application after which it is determined whether a secure communication path exists between the client application and the set top box. If the secure communication path exists, the print data is transmitted from the client application to the set top box. The print data is then sent from the set top box to the printer for printing.

The subject application is directed to managing electronic documents in associated data storage areas. User identification is received and indicia of data storage areas is displayed. Storage selection is received from the user to store incoming electronic documents. A storage area is then designated in accordance with the received selection and identification data. A shadow data storage area associated with the designated area is created and an access code associated with the designated area is determined. An input of incoming document systems is associated with the shadow area based upon the selection data. Documents are received, in their native formats, from the systems into the shadow storage area. The access code is then associated with each incoming document in the shadow data storage area. A log of history for each document is generated. The documents and logs are routed into the designated area from the shadow area.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for web process monitoring. The commencement of an active web services process is first detected, and in response to such detection, a supervisory system is commenced. The active web services process is then monitored. Stored parameter data representing at least one acceptable property associated with the active web services process is then compared to the monitored web services process. The supervisory system is then activated based upon the results of the comparison. Thereafter, the activated supervisory system controls operation of the active web services process.

This invention is directed to a system and method for the digital payment of document processing services. More particularly, this invention is directed to a system and method which uses a pre-paid or digital payment mechanism to charge for document processing services.
摘要:
Internet-based printing to a home printer in which the print job is pre-rasterized at the cable head end and sent in rasterized format to the set top box. Because the print job is pre-rasterized at the cable head end, and not at the set top box, resources are not wasted at the set top box when they are more readily available at the cable head end. In addition, because of the high speed communication network already in existence between the cable head end and the set top box, even large pre-rasterized print jobs can be transmitted to the set top box in reasonable amounts of time, meaning more quickly than a situation in which it was the set top box that performed rasterization.
摘要:
This subject application is directed to a system and method for sending electronic files to multiple destinations. When a document is first selected for output, a first level, or generic driver, is selected. This driver enables output of the selected document to all selected output destinations, such as printing, web posting, and e-mailing. While a common driver interface is functional, the system further teaches a mechanism wherein a user can select a destination specific driver for some or all of the destinations. This selection allows for more refined processing options than those afforded by the generic driver, which must function in a set of parameters common to all destinations. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, once a driver for a specific destination is selected, the associated driver is loaded and selected criteria for the specialized driver is stored for future use for documents being output to that destination.
