20080218806 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus which makes it possible to change the manner of authentication between cases where restriction of a specific process is performed on an image of an original, as an original document, and where the restriction of the specific process is performed on an image of an original, as a copy of the original document. A scanner reads an image on an original. An embedded information-extracting section extracts specific information contained in the read image. A determining section determines based on the extracted information whether or not the original is an original document. An authenticating section performs authentication using respective difference pieces of authentication information in cases where the original is determined to be an original document and where the original is not. A copy operation control section restricts the specific process based on the image, according to a result of the authentication. | 09-11-2008 |
20090204857 | NETWORK APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - In a network apparatus for receiving a processing request transmitted from an external apparatus connected thereto via a network, it is detected that processing corresponding to the transmitted processing request has not been performed. If it is detected that the processing corresponding to the transmitted processing request has not been performed, a port number of a request destination of the transmitted processing request is recognized and an application corresponding to the recognized port number is specified as an application of a request destination of the transmitted processing request. Furthermore, it is determined whether the specified application is in an ON or OFF state. If it is detected that the processing corresponding to the transmitted processing request has not been performed and the specified application is in the OFF state, error information including information indicating the specified application is output. | 08-13-2009 |
20090300432 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION NOTIFICATION METHOD THEREFOR, AND CONTROL PROGRAM - To enable the host server side to be aware of the recovery of an error when the error is recovered by the user's power off/on operation, the most recent state regarding occurrences of errors at printer | 12-03-2009 |
20100005352 | PROGRAM TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, PROGRAM TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING CONTROL PROGRAM - A program transmission system in which a program is transmitted from a transmission apparatus to an image forming apparatus is provided. The program transmission system includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire operational state information about an operational state in the image forming apparatus, a determination unit configured to determine timing to transmit the program to the image forming apparatus according to the operational state based on the operational state information acquired by the acquisition unit, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the program from the transmission apparatus to the image forming apparatus according to the timing determined by the determination unit. | 01-07-2010 |
20110158393 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS PERFORMING COMMUNICATION VIA NETWORK USING PHONE NUMBER, CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A communication apparatus that enables to appropriately perform IP filtering even when communication via a network is performed by a user inputting a destination phone number. An IP filter permits or rejects communication on the basis of a set IP address. An input unit inputs a phone number. An acquisition unit acquires an IP address corresponding to the phone number inputted by the input unit from a server connected to the network. A setting unit sets the IP filter so that communication using the IP address acquired by the acquisition unit is permitted. | 06-30-2011 |
20120005744 | COMMUNICATING APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING COMMUNICATION OVER IP NETWORK BY USING SIP, CONTROLLING METHOD THEREFOR, AND PROGRAM - A communicating apparatus that is able to perform IP-FAX communication without making the user aware of the attack and without any difficulty, even if the device recognizes a DoS attack or the like. communication that uses a SIP server on a network is performed by a communicating unit. Unauthorized communication from the communication performed by the communicating unit is detected. A port number of a receiving port of the communicating unit is changed when the unauthorized communication is detected. it is determined whether or not the detected unauthorized communication has passed through the SIP server. The communicating apparatus is controlled to request the SIP server to delete the port number of the receiving port that has not been changed yet if it is determined that the unauthorized communication has passed through the SIP server and to re-register on the SIP server a port number of a receiving port that has been changed if it is determined that the unauthorized communication has bypassed the SIP server. | 01-05-2012 |
20120137150 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - An apparatus operates in at least a first mode and a second mode consuming less power than the first mode, and stores information indicating specific data to be responded without shifting from the second mode to the first mode, the data being received from a network during an operation in the second mode. Data received from the network during an operation in the first mode is determined whether to be the specific data indicated by the information stored by a storage unit. When the data is the specific data, a shift from the first mode to the second mode after responding to the received data is faster than when the data is not the specific data. | 05-31-2012 |
20130138820 | COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT THAT PERFORMS COMMUNICATIONS VIA NETWORK, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - Communication equipment which is capable of reducing communication time when transmitting a plurality of data using SIP. When a plurality of data are to be transmitted, a connection request message for requesting a plurality of media sessions is transmitted. Upon receiving a connection response message in response to the connection request message, it is determined whether or not the plurality of media sessions have been permitted in the connection request message. When it is determined that the plurality of media sessions have been permitted, the plurality of media sessions are established, and transmit each of the plurality of data is transmitted in each of the media sessions. | 05-30-2013 |
20130227358 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus transmits a log thereof relating to a status detected thereby to a log collection server, and sets a storage period of each transmitted log in the log collection server. The image forming apparatus acquires a total amount of logs thereof stored in the log collection server and a storage period of each log from the log collection server, and deletes the log thereof stored in the log collection server based on the storage period of each log before transmitting a log if a sum total including the total amount and a total amount of logs to be transmitted reaches an upper limit. | 08-29-2013 |
