摘要:
A system and method for selectively outsourcing document processing operations from a document processing device. The document processing device analyzes a submitted document processing job from a user and determines whether external devices are available and capable of performing some or all of the requested document processing operations. When external devices are available and capable, the document processing device performs any necessary local preprocessing and forwards information related to the document processing job to one of the external devices. The external device then processes the data and returns the processed data to the document processing device. The document processing device then performs any remaining document processing operations and the job is thereupon output according to the selected document processing operation.

A system and method for monitoring the startup process for a plurality of document processing services to determine if each of the process has started properly. A service startup manager initiates the startup and monitors a plurality of processes associated with a document processing device. The service startup manager then awaits the receipt of a periodic beacon, originated by each process, indicating the normal startup and operation of the process in question. When the periodic beacon associated with a process is not received by the startup manager within a predetermined period of time, the service startup manager transmits a shutdown command to the process and waits for the process to terminate. When a shutdown does not occur, the service startup manager forcibly terminates the process. The service startup manager then restarts the process. Once the process becomes available again, the service startup manager notifies each process registered with the manager of the availability of process to receive notification of the availability of process.

The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for the job management of document processing wherein job management is divided into a pipeline assembly phase and a job processing phase. The job manager is heavily involved in the pipeline assembly phase. The job processing phase involves only the job processors, which were identified during the pipeline assembly phase. The processors signal the job manager when they start or finish processing of a job. The job manager controls resource consumption by controlling the amount of data in the pipes by parameterizing connector elements. For example, the job manager will preferably input data relating to stapling operations into the pipeline after data relating to collating operations is feed into the pipeline. The job manager assembles partial data or operations into the pipeline in the event that all resources needed are not available. In the event that a stapling operation is not possible, the job manager will still feed data related to other jobs so that the process may be completed to the extent possible.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for thin client graphical user interface development. Primitive data is stored in associated memory corresponding to graphical user interface primitives. Each primitive corresponds to a display or a control of an associated document processing device. Selection data is received via a thin client, representing primitive data corresponding to at least one graphical user interface primitive. The primitive data is selectively communicated to a display associated with the thin client according to the received selection data resulting in the generation of visual indicia on the display. A data set is generated representing a graphical user interface display according to a selected set of indicia that is displayed on the thin client. Map data is generated representing the mapping of a generated data set to user interface data, corresponding to the display and the control of one or more document processing devices.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for context-based traversal of document object model descriptions. Electronic document data is first stored as a document object model description. An access request is then received from one or more unique associated applications, which reflects a request by an application to access the electronic document data. Predicate data is then received from the one or more unique applications, which data represents viewing characteristics of the one or more unique associated applications relative to the document object model description. The stored electronic document data is then parsed according to the received predicate data, thereby resulting in the generation of a document object model node. Thereafter, the electronic document data is traversed in accordance with the generated document object model node.

The subject application is directed to a document processing device and associated method for generating an informational display on a document processing device. The method includes receiving preselected media content and displaying the preselected media content on a display of the document processing device. The method further includes receiving user identification data and retrieving user-specified media content preference data identifying a user-specified media content preferred by a user associated with the user identification data. The method also includes displaying the user-specified media content on the display of the document processing device in response to receipt of a request to complete a document processing operation using the document processing device.

摘要:
The subject application is directed to a system and method for generating an informational media display on a document processing device. A document processing signal representing the status of a document processing operation on an associated document processing device is first received. Media content data and preference data corresponding to user-specified media content data is then received. Pre-selected media content data is then generated on a display of a user interface associated with the document processing device when the device is idle, as determined by the document processing status signal. Display of the pre-selected media content is then suspended when the document processing signal indicates that the document processing device is active. User-specified media data content is then generated on the display of the user interface when the received document processing signal corresponds to active status of the associated document processing device.
摘要:
Systems and methods for electronic document routing using a multifunction peripheral are disclosed. An electronic document including a document tag is accepted. A document tag is automatically identified using optical character recognition within the electronic document. The document tag is then displayed to the user. The electronic document is stored in a storage location for the electronic document previously associated with the document tag or in a user-input storage location in response to a prompt.
