    Abstract: Provided is an authentication system that achieves simple single sign-on used by an MFP. A management application includes a first authentication-request unit that transmits an authentication request to a management server and delivers a token to an execution platform. The other application includes a second authentication-request unit that sends an authentication request together with the token to another server. The application-execution platform includes a token-delivery unit that delivers the token to the other application. The management server includes a first authentication unit that returns a token to the first authentication-request unit, a token-creation unit, and a second authentication unit that performs authentication for an inquiry from the other server that uses a token. The other server includes a third authentication-request unit that transfers an authentication request, and transfers an authentication OK message to the second authentication-request unit.

    Abstract: An image forming system includes a client apparatus, a print server, and an image forming apparatus, each of which are coupled via a network to one another. The client apparatus provides a job ID together with an IP address of the client apparatus to the print server, and transmits print job data to the image forming apparatus via the print server. The print server registers the job ID and the IP address in a job address table, receives content of an event transmitted from the image forming apparatus, reads an IP address associated with a job ID included in the content of the event from the job address table when the event is a change in job status, and transmits the content of the event to a client having the read IP address.

    Abstract: Upon startup of an OS, the present invention obtains an entry of a StatusMonitor key from all printer driver setting information subscribed in a registry by means of a subscriber (S0), and if a value thereof is 1, obtains an entry of a key including “Notification”. If a value of an array element 0 indicates activation of notification, the present invention obtains a character string of an array element 1 as an event type, and makes a Subscribe request to an image forming apparatus (S3). The present invention stores a subscription ID being returned, and makes an Unsubscribe request to the image forming apparatus for all subscription IDs thus stored, upon shut-down of the OS.
