Abstract:
A display apparatus displays handwritten data that is input with an inputter. The display apparatus includes processing circuitry; and a memory storing computer-executable instructions that cause the processing circuitry to convert the handwritten data into a character string; and conceal the character string generated by converting the handwritten data, in response to determining that a first time has elapsed after the character string is displayed.
Abstract:
While using a communication system in which groups of destinations on a network are managed, and any one of the groups can be specified as a destination, if a group needs to be changed, added, or deleted, updating the system on the network is required, which increases load of maintenance. To address such a problem, an operation input receiving unit of a terminal receives selection of a group including destination information that represents destination candidates of communication. A destination management unit of the terminal determines a destination among the destination candidates represented by the destination information included in the selected group. A sending and receiving unit of the terminal makes a request for starting communication with the determined destination, to a management system.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a communication unit which receives email through a communication line, the email having been sent by a user and including a first identifier and data. The apparatus further includes an accumulation unit which stores therein the data, a printout unit, an input unit which receives a second identifier entered by the user through direct operation thereof, and a control unit which controls the printout unit to print the data corresponding to the first identifier by reading the data from the accumulation unit if the second identifier matches the first identifier.
Abstract:
A received document input and output device connected to a network and using a plurality of communication protocols, the document input and output device communicating documents in various data forms with a plurality of information devices, includes a storing part configured to store the documents received via a communication part; a printing part configured to print the documents; a setting part configured to set management information; and a periodic implementation part configured to control the parts processing the document based on the management information and an output of a clock part configured to count day and time.
Abstract:
A document OCR implementing device, includes a reading part configured to read a document and form a recognition image; an obtaining part configured to perform image processing of the recognition image and obtain a state of the recognition image; a plurality of OCR engines configured to perform a character recognition process of the recognition image; and a designating part configured to designate the OCR engine by combining the recognition image and the OCR engine; wherein the character recognition process is implemented by using the OCR engine designated by the designating part.
Abstract:
A network synchronizing system includes plural apparatuses. A first apparatus includes a first recording unit to record personal data of one or more users who can use the first apparatus to share the personal data with other apparatuses. A second apparatus includes a first setting unit to record personal data of one or more users who can use the second apparatus; and a first control unit to compare the personal data recorded in the first setting unit and the first recording unit and update the personal data recorded in the first setting unit of the second apparatus with the latest personal data for each user. The first control unit determines that users are the same user when data uniquely provided for the users in the personal data recorded in the first setting unit and the first recording unit are the same.
Abstract:
A disclosed information processing system includes an authentication information acquisition unit that acquires first authentication information and second authentication information different from the first authentication information. An authentication reference information storage unit stores first authentication reference information for authentication of the first authentication information and second authentication reference information for authentication of the second authentication information. A first authentication determination unit determines success or failure of first authentication using the first authentication information and the first authentication reference information. A second authentication determination unit determines success or failure of second authentication using the second authentication information and the second authentication reference information. An authentication information control unit stores the second authentication reference information and the first authentication information in the authentication reference information storage unit so as to correspond to each other when the first and second authentications are successful.
Abstract:
A disclosed image input/output apparatus includes an image information acquiring unit configured to acquire image information; an identification information recognition unit configured to recognize identification information included in the image information acquired by the image information acquiring unit; and an output control unit configured to identify and output the image information acquired by the image information acquiring unit based on the identification information recognized by the identification information recognition unit.
Abstract:
In a multi-function input/output device, an optical reading unit optically reads an optically readable code from a device control setting medium on which device control setting information, including use authentication information and unit-control-setting information for a document input control setting unit, a document-data-processing control setting unit, and a document-data-output control setting unit, is recorded. The device control setting information including the use authentication information is recognized from the code read by the optical reading unit. A user authentication unit authenticates the user by using a use authentication code of the use authentication information. A setting processing unit sets the unit-control-setting information based on a recognition result of the device control setting information and the use authentication information.
Abstract:
An external device document input and output device that is connected to a network and uses a plurality of communication protocols, the external device document input and output device communicating documents in various data forms to and from a plurality of information devices, the external device input and output device includes a first identifying part configured to implement a process of identification so that a function of the information device can be used by individual identification; a second identifying part configured to implement a process of identification so that a function of the external device document input and output device can be used by individual identification; and a registration part configured to register folders permitted to be used by a user identified by the first identifying part and the second identifying part and register setting information of a recording medium provided in the external device document input and output device, in common media.
