| 20120194876 | Document Reader Including a Positioning and Retention System - A document scanner is disclosed. The document scanner includes a document bed having a document positioning surface. The document bed has a plurality of perforations therethrough. The document scanner also includes a fan mounted to the document bed on a side opposite the document positioning surface and oriented to draw air through the perforations of the document bed. A method of use of the document scanner, and a particular check scanner are disclosed as well. | 08-02-2012 |
| 20120194877 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SECURE FACSIMILE DELIVERY AND REGISTRATION - A secure fax transmission system can be used to assure the intended recipient of a confidential document being sent via facsimile is the only person that will have access to the document once it is sent. An application module communicates with a client user interface over a first network and communicates with a recipient fax machine over a second network. The application module receives information associated with a confidential document being sent via facsimile. Prior to sending the document, the application module determines if the recipient fax number has been previously registered as a secure fax number. The application module then sends the document to the recipient if the recipient fax number is registered a secure. If the recipient fax number is not registered as secure, the application module sends a request for registration to the recipient fax number. | 08-02-2012 |
| 20130329263 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM THEREFOR - When an electronic document is to be generated from an image of a document, reproduction of both an appearance of the document image and a logical structure is difficult because of format limitations imposed on the electronic document. According to the present invention, from among column arrangements allowed by the specifications of the electronic document, a column arrangement is selected by using which the positions of character areas in an input image and the logical structure analyzed from the input image can be most appropriately reproduced, and is used to generate an electronic document. | 12-12-2013 |
| 20140043659 | SCAN SERVER, SCAN DEVICE, SCAN SERVICE METHOD AND SCAN SERVICE PROGRAM - In a conventional scan system, even in the case where an image forming device has an image processing function, since image processing such as OCR processing and OCR preprocessing for increasing a character recognition rate in the OCR processing is performed by only a scan server, a processing load is concentrated in the scan server. In the scan server of the present invention, scan setting and the OCR preprocessing are described in a scan ticket (instruction data), and the image forming device performs, on a scanned image, the OCR preprocessing described in the scan ticket received from the scan server. | 02-13-2014 |
| 20140153061 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus includes a receiver that receives sheet identification information included in information images printed onto sheets scanned by a scanner, a detector that detects that a scanning operation by the scanner is an operation indicating that a plurality of sheets are a sequential sheet group, and a unifier that, when the detector detects an operation indicating the sequential sheet group, unifies information corresponding to the plurality of sheets that is respectively indicated by the plurality of sheet identification information received by the receiver during the scanning operation. | 06-05-2014 |
| 20150085328 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT ENABLES IMPORT/EXPORT OF SETTING VALUE, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING CONTROL PROGRAM THEREFOR - A data processing apparatus that is capable of reducing the garbling of characters caused by the difference among the character codes when setting data are transferred to another apparatus by the import-export function. A storage unit stores setting data for the data processing apparatus. A receiving unit receives an instruction for exporting the setting data stored in the storage unit. A converting unit converts Unicode data included in the setting data into character code data of language, which is set to the data processing apparatus. An export unit exports the character code data converted by the converting unit and the Unicode data. | 03-26-2015 |
