Abstract:
A job execution system comprises a job execution apparatus and a server apparatus interconnected via a network. The server apparatus stores in itself, counter data defining the range of using the job execution apparatus, which is allowed for a user who logs in the job execution apparatus by authentication. The job execution apparatus obtains entirely or partially the counter data of the login user from the server apparatus; returns the counter data that is reduced by job execution to the server apparatus when the user logs out thereof; judges according to conditions set on the job execution apparatus itself, whether or not the counter data returning operation should be suspended; and suspends the counter data returning operation if judges that it should be suspended.

A subsystem of a second kind includes a post-collection provision portion for providing a service if a fee defined by a second fee table is collected, a collected history record transmitting portion to transmit to the summation server a collected history record including a history record of providing a service, a proxy provision portion for providing a service before a fee for the service is collected, and a switch control portion for comparing the first fee table with the second fee table and allowing the post-collection provision portion or the proxy provision portion to provide a service.
Abstract:
An image processing system includes an information processing apparatus and an image processing apparatus connected to each other via a network. The information processing apparatus has an application installed thereon to give a new function to the image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus transmits to the information processing apparatus, voice data obtained by a microphone of the image processing apparatus and data set via an operation screen customized according to the application. The information processing apparatus determines answer information indicating an action to be taken by the image processing apparatus, based on the received voice data, a dictionary owned by the application and the data set via the operation screen, and then transmits the determined answer information to the image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus takes an action according to the answer information received therefrom.
Abstract:
An authentication system for an instruction processing apparatus includes first and second authentication portions each for performing user authentication at the time of using the instruction processing apparatus, and a controller which makes the first authentication portion execute the user authentication and switches from the first authentication portion to the second authentication portion when the user authentication by the first authentication portion cannot be established.
Abstract:
Provided is a controller for an electric servo press for linearly driving a slide through an intermediation of a rotary-to-linear motion converting mechanism for rotating a decentering shaft by a rotational output of a servo motor to convert rotation of the decentering shaft into linear motion, to perform press working, including : a press load sensor for detecting a pressure force of the slide; a pressure-force determination device for determining whether the pressure force of the slide reaches one or a plurality of different pressure-force setting values based on the one or the plurality of different pressure-force setting values and an output signal of the press load sensor, and for generating a pressure-force achievement signal each time the pressure force of the slide reaches each of the one or the plurality of different pressure-force setting values; a servo motor drive controller for controlling driving of the servo motor; and a motion command device, in which: in respond to generation of the pressure-force achievement signal, at least one of switching of a drive control mode by the servo motor drive controller and switching of a motion to be commanded by the motion command device is performed.
Abstract:
An image processing system in which a portable terminal and an image processing apparatus are capable of communicating with each other contactlessly, includes: the portable terminal apparatus including: a display; and a transmitter that transmits display information indicating what is currently displayed on the display, to the image processing apparatus over contactless communication, and the image processing apparatus including: a receiver that receives the display information from the portable terminal over contactless communication; a memory that records in advance, display information samples and specified operations for the image processing apparatus, with their connections; and a controller that determines an appropriate operation based on the display information received by the receiver, the display information samples recorded in the memory and the specified operations also recorded in the memory, and makes the image processing apparatus perform that determined operation.
Abstract:
An image transmission system capable of reducing the amount of labor required of the user during registration of one-touch information. The image transmission system comprises an image transmission apparatus and a relay apparatus that sends image data received from such image transmission apparatus to a prescribed recipient. Such relay apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives from the image transmission apparatus image data and setting information for the transmission thereof, a specifying unit that specifies the user who sent the image data, a storage unit that stores and associates the specified user and the setting information, a transmission unit that sends the received image data to a prescribed recipient in accordance with the setting information, and an output unit that, when accessed by the user, outputs the setting information stored in the storage unit and corresponding to such user as information for creation of one-touch buttons. Such image transmission apparatus includes a transmission unit that sends the image data and the setting information to the relay apparatus, a receiving unit that receives the information for creation of one-touch buttons that was output from the relay apparatus, and a display unit that creates one-touch buttons based on the information for creation of one-touch buttons and displays them.
Abstract:
An improved image transmission apparatus capable of reducing the amount of work involved in the checking and transmission operations performed by the user at the time of image data transmission, the apparatus including an address accept unit that accepts input of a first address and a second address, a reader that reads an original document to obtain data pertaining thereto, a first transmission unit that sends original document data obtained by the reader to the first address, a receiving unit that receives a reply from the first address responding to the transmission by the first transmission unit, and a second transmission unit that sends the original document data to the second address when the receiving unit receives from the first address a reply indicating acceptability of the original document data.
Abstract:
An adhesion promoter for a primer, comprising a silane compound that is a reaction product between a polyisocyanate and a silane coupling agent having a secondary amino group, the nitrogen atom of which is directly connected to a phenyl group or a derivative thereof, the silane compound having in average one or more NCO group and in average one or more hydrolyzable alkoxysilyl group in the molecule. Also, a primer composition comprising the adhesion promoter for a primer and a film forming resin is disclosed. The adhesion promoter has high adhesion to various adherends and retains that effect after prolonged storage and the primer composition is excellent in adhesion to various adherends and retains adhesion after prolonged storage.
