Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes a first network interface configured to accept access from a terminal on a first network, a second network interface configured to accept access from a terminal on a second network, a hardware processor configured to process access from a terminal on the first network and a terminal on the second network, and a memory. The memory includes a first area configured to store data received from the terminal on the second network. The second network is higher in security level than the first network. Access to data stored in the first area from the terminal on the second network is permitted and access to data stored in the first area from the terminal on the first network is restricted.
Abstract:
A controller of a management device managing a plurality of image processing apparatuses acquires ability information and device identification information from the respective image processing apparatuses; determines, based on the ability information of the respective image processing apparatuses, as an in-charge device any one of the respective image processing apparatuses for each of a plurality of protocols predetermined; for the respective protocols, causes the in-charge device determined for the protocol to respond to a packet by multicast of the protocol on behalf of the respective image processing apparatuses; and causes one or more image processing apparatuses other than the in-charge device determined for the protocol to refrain from responding to a packet by multicast of the protocol. The respective image processing apparatuses respond to a packet by multicast of the protocol if the apparatus itself is determined the in-charge device for the protocol.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A cooperative system comprises an image processing apparatus and a portable terminal; the image processing apparatus comprises: a display; a judgment portion judging whether an operation screen requested from the portable terminal apparatus is a first screen including a file area or a second screen including no file area; and a transmitter transmitting screen data for reproducing the first or second screen depending on the judgment result, along with a file and area reproduction information; the portable terminal comprises: a requestor requesting for the screen data; a reproducer reproducing the first or second screen; a display displaying the first or second screen; a judgment portion judging whether user operates on the file area or the other area; and a controller showing in the file area an appropriate portion of the file for user operation if user operates on the file area.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a communication interface capable of communication over a plurality of frequency bands and a controller configured to determine whether the content of communication of the communication interface satisfies a predetermined condition. The controller is configured to execute control for switching the frequency band of communication via the communication interface to another frequency band over the frequency bands when the content of communication of the communication interface satisfies a predetermined condition.
Abstract:
An image reading device comprises: a feeder that feeds a document along with a predetermined path; a first reading part that reads a first side of the document at a first position in the path and creates a first image; a second reading part that reads a second side of the document at a second position which is located posterior to the first position in the path and creates a second image; a synthesizing part that lays the first image and the second image on top of one another and creates a composite image; and a detecting part that detects a characteristic pattern of a specific document from the composite image created by the synthesizing part.
Abstract:
An MFP sets an access condition for an external device with respect to a cloud box. The access condition is transmitted from the MFP to a relay device, and is registered in a memory of the relay device. When the relay device receives an access request made by the external device with respect to the MFP serving as an internal device, the relay device determines whether to permit or deny access to the MFP by comparing the access request with the access condition. When the access is permitted, the access request is transferred from the relay device to the MFP, whereas when the access is denied, the relay device notifies the external device of it.
Abstract:
An image processing system includes: an application server located in the Internet; an image processing apparatus located in a local network connected to the Internet via a firewall; a relay server configured to relay communication between the image processing apparatus and the application server, the relay server being located in the local network; and a connection mediation server configured to transmit, to the relay server, a request for a connection to the application server, the connection mediation server being located in the Internet, wherein the connection mediation server includes a connection request transmitting unit so as to have communication established between the image processing apparatus and the application server, the relay server includes: a communication establishing unit; a job transferring unit; a job identifying unit; and a communication terminating unit, and after the communication terminating unit terminates the communication, the communication establishing unit reestablishes the communication.
Abstract:
A communication system includes a plurality of devices, a plurality of communication relay apparatuses, and a management server. If the management server that has received from a cloud server a request to access a specific device has no communication session with a specific communication relay apparatus that has control over the specific device, the management server transmits a tunnel connection request to a substitute apparatus (another communication relay apparatus different from the specific communication relay apparatus) via a communication session between the substitute apparatus and the management server. The substitute apparatus transfers the tunnel connection request to the specific communication relay apparatus and causes the specific communication relay apparatus to return from a power saving mode. The specific communication relay apparatus then establishes tunnel communication with the cloud server on the basis of the tunnel connection request to relay communication between the cloud server and the specific device.
Abstract:
An information processing device includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a determination result of a state of a user, who has given a transmission job execution instruction, determined based on biological information of the user; and a job control unit configured to control an execution of the transmission job according to the user state determination result, wherein when it is determined that the user is in an off-normal state, the job control unit executes a confirmation request process to request the user to make a confirmation related to the transmission job.
