Abstract:
A cold-cathode ray tube is adopted as an exposure lamp and the exposure lamp is always lit. When the exposure lamp exists at a standby position, a light of the exposure lamp is irradiated at a lower surface side of a control panel. By this irradiation, the liquid crystal display section of the control panel is irradiated in a state of looking bright and clear.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a reception notifying apparatus includes a management unit, a reception unit, a processing unit, and a notification unit. The management unit manages notification party information used to give a notification of file reception. The reception unit receives a file. The processing unit processes the received file based on file control information attached to the received file. The notification unit gives a notification of the processing result of the received file based on the notification party information.
Abstract:
In a case where a client user is already registered in a database server, user authentication is executed. Specifically, login to a network with use of a username and a password is executed and an authentication server carries out an authentication process, or authentication with use of a user certificate is executed and the authentication server carries out the authentication process. If the authentication process by the authentication server is completed, image forming apparatus information including position information is displayed on the client user and the client user is permitted to execute network connection.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus of the invention includes a radio communication unit that is capable of performing radio communication with an external terminal apparatus and a control unit that controls the radio communication unit. The image forming apparatus controls the radio communication unit to transmit, when a transmission signal from the terminal apparatus is received by the radio communication unit, a signal for requesting a security code to the terminal apparatus and transmit, when the security code from the terminal apparatus is received, individual information including network information of the image forming apparatus to the terminal apparatus. Consequently, the terminal apparatus can receive the network information transmitted from the image forming apparatus and perform setting for network connection using this network information received.

Abstract:
An image forming apparatus according to the invention has a system control unit provided in a body unit having an image forming unit. The system control unit controls the image forming unit and outputs a power off command to the body unit including the system control unit itself if it is determined that a preset power-saving mode transition condition is met. The image forming apparatus has an authentication data reading device which receives supply of power from a power supply path that is different from a power supply path to the body unit, reads authentication data from an authentication medium, and holds the read data. Moreover, the image forming apparatus has a power control unit which turns off the power supply path to the body unit in accordance with the power off command outputted from the system control unit, and turns on the power supply path to the body unit as the authentication data reading device reads the authentication data from the authentication medium.

Abstract:
An image forming apparatus, method and program having a help function allow a user to obtain help information after first checking what help information is available at a host computer. In the image-forming apparatus 100, a first CPU 16 which serves as the controller in a printer/scanner section 10 accesses, via an external interface 20, an information source connected to a network NW, and has a list of help information displayed. In response to a help request selected and input from a control panel 15, necessary portions of detailed operating instructions or troubleshooting instructions are successively downloaded from the information source through the external interface and displayed on a control panel. The apparatus makes it possible to check what help information is available at a host computer and to obtain desired help information. Information capable of providing detailed instructions can be furnished without requiring the apparatus to have a large memory.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an alteration detecting apparatus includes an input unit, a storage unit, an output unit, and an alteration detecting unit. The input unit inputs a file. The storage unit stores the file. The output unit outputs the file. The alteration detecting unit produces first alteration detection data that is uniquely determined, from the file on the basis of an alteration detection data production process in response to an input of the file, stores the file and the first alteration detection data in the storage unit, produces second alteration detection data that is uniquely determined, from the file stored in the storage unit on the basis of the alteration detection data production process in response to an output request for the file, compares the first alteration detection data with the second alteration detection data and detects alteration of the file on the basis of the compared result.
