摘要:
An image forming apparatus, including a plurality of applications each including a reception unit configured to receive print data, a determination unit configured to analyze the print data received by the reception unit to determine the data format thereof, and a print control unit configured to print an image of print data having a specific data format. The print data analyzed by the determination unit is sent to the print control unit when the data format is determined to be equivalent to the specific data format, or another reception unit when the data format is determined to be different from the specific data format.

An information processing device executes a process based on a command received from an operator. The information processing device includes a receiver to receive radio waves output from mobile terminals; a retrieval unit to retrieve, from each of the radio waves, an operator identification information item for identifying an operator carrying the mobile terminal; a measurement unit to measure a radio wave strength level of each of the radio waves received by the receiver; a first storage unit to store, for each operator identification information item retrieved by the retrieval unit, the radio wave strength level measured by the measurement unit; an identifying unit to identify, based on the radio wave strength levels stored for the corresponding operator identification information items, the operator identification information item output by the mobile terminal carried by the operator; and a controller to control execution of the process requested by the operator.

An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus and an output management server. The output management server includes a receiving unit to receive an output data, an analysis unit to analyze the output data and determine a PDL required for outputting the output data, a management unit to determine whether the PDL is available, and a transmitting unit to transmit the output data and an executable file of the PDL to the designated image forming apparatus, when the PDL is determined as available. The image forming apparatus includes a receiving unit to receive the output data and the executable file of the PDL, a control unit to activate the executable file of the PDL and develop the output data, an output unit to output the output data, and a deleting unit to delete the executable file of the PDL, after the outputting of the output data is completed.

The purpose of this invention is to avoid unnecessary print out and cut wasteful consumption of resources and electricity. A printer receives a command indicating whether or not a user does not need to print out images such as advertisements on web pages. If a drawing command acquired by analyzing received print data is image, the printer determines whether or not the command is to draw images based on the user's choice and execute a drawing process along with the command from the user. Consequently, the printer can print out text information with eliminating image information which is noise for the user and can eliminate print out for unnecessary image information.

A disclosed image forming apparatus includes a filter detection part that detects the filter when the external medium is connected; a filter identification information obtaining part that obtains filter identification information that identifies a filter set by a user from filter setting information when print data subject to printing is received, wherein the filter setting information regarding the filter is added to the print data; a first output part that outputs the print data to the filter via the input/output interface, in accordance with the filter identification information; an input part that inputs the print data on which a predetermined process has been carried out by the filter via the input/output interface; and a second output part that outputs the print data on which the predetermined process has been carried out by the filter to a page description language module.
摘要:
One or more among a PC document receive filter, a FAX document receive filter, a read filter, and a readout filter create a report on each of the corresponding functions in a format common to the functions. A report filter changes a format of the created report as desired by the user. Therefore, when a setting for a report output process is changed, it is not necessary to change the setting with respect to each of the functions. Thus, it is possible to reduce development man-hours for the report output process.
