Abstract:
A workflow executing device executes the steps of: specifying a workflow; executing processes defined by the specified workflow; specifying an external process to be processed by a first external device from among the processes; specifying a device that stores account information requested by the first external device as a second external device in order to allow the first external device to execute the external process; generating a sub-workflow that defines a login process of logging into the first external device, a request process of allowing the first external device to execute the external process, and an execution result output process of transmitting the execution result to the workflow executing device; and changing the external process in the workflow to a workflow transmitting process of transmitting the sub-workflow to the second external device and an execution result receiving process of receiving the execution result from the second external device.
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 processing system includes an acquiring section that acquires biological information on a user who makes an image processing apparatus execute a job and operation information on the image processing apparatus with the biological information changing depending on a state of the user, an analysis section that analyzes stress of the user concerning use of the image processing apparatus, based on the biological information and the operation information, and an output section that outputs an analysis result obtained by the analysis section.
Abstract:
An image processing system includes a terminal worn by a user for use; and an image output apparatus configured to perform an output process for outputting an image in accordance with a command given by the user. The terminal includes an obtaining portion configured to obtain, from the user, a physical feature of the user. Any one or both of the terminal and the image output apparatus includes an authentication portion configured to perform, prior to the output process, an authentication process for verifying the user based on the physical feature obtained by the obtaining portion. The image output apparatus includes an output process portion configured to perform the output process when the authentication portion verifies the user.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus includes: an information obtaining portion that obtains association information indicating an association between a first and second portable terminal apparatus from an association information storage, the first portable terminal apparatus having a proper permission to use a function of the image processing apparatus from the first portable terminal apparatus, the second portable terminal apparatus having a temporary permission to use the function from the second portable terminal apparatus in place of the first portable terminal apparatus; a data storage that stores data caused by a process between the image processing apparatus and the second portable terminal apparatus; an online terminal detector that detects the first portable terminal apparatus as being online; and a data provider that provides the data to the first portable terminal apparatus from the data storage when the online terminal detector detects the first portable terminal apparatus as being online.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes: an imaging unit configured to capture an image of a subject; an image extraction unit configured to extract an image of a predetermined shape from a captured image being the image of the subject captured and output by the imaging unit; and a registration unit configured to, upon the image extraction unit extracting a first image identifying input data and a second image identifying a storage area, store the input data identified by the first image in the storage area identified by the second image.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes: a non-volatile memory; and a hardware processor that controls the non-volatile memory, wherein the hardware processor determines whether communication speed of a communication path to the non-volatile memory is equal to or less than a threshold value and encrypts the data transmitted to the non-volatile memory when the communication speed is determined to be equal to or less than the threshold value.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus comprises: an accepting portion that accepts a request for a temporary use permission to use a function of the image processing apparatus from a second portable terminal apparatus in place of a first portable terminal apparatus having a proper use permission to use the function, an obtaining portion that obtains application information of an application installed on the second portable terminal apparatus; a determining portion that determines a scope of the temporary use permission with reference to reference data stored on a management apparatus and on the basis of the application information; a judgment portion that judges whether or not the requested process falls within the determined scope when a request for a process requiring the function is received from or transferred to the second portable terminal apparatus; and an executor portion that executes the requested process if it falls within the determined scope.
Abstract:
A processor of an MFP generates a first additional image based on an image in a designated region of a document. Furthermore, the processor of the MFP generates a second additional image showing a difference between the document and a document before revision of the document. Then, the processor of the MFP registers the first additional image and the second additional image on a server in association with a marker image showing the revised edition number of the document.
