20090251729 | OUTPUT DEVICE AND ITS CONTROL METHOD - When a user logs in to an MFP (S | 10-08-2009 |
20090296146 | MANAGING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND PROCESSING METHOD FOR THE SAME - A temporary object is registered in a document managing system in advance on the basis information about an object that a user wants to use. Then, when an object is registered by another user, it is determined whether the registered object is a similar object corresponding to the temporary object. If the registered object is a similar object, the user is notified of that fact, and the temporary object in target document data is updated with the similar object. | 12-03-2009 |
20100157382 | IMAGE READING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image reading apparatus that reads an image. Image data generated by a scanner reading an original is stored in a RAM. The size of the image data and the size of a region for storing the image data in the RAM are compared with each other. The image data is divided when the size of the image data is larger than the size of the region for storing the image data in the RAM. One of a plurality of pieces of image data divided from the image data is stored in the RAM, and the format of the image data stored in the RAM is converted. One image file including image data obtained by converting each piece of the plurality of pieces of image data is generated. | 06-24-2010 |
20110116127 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - The present invention provides an image processing apparatus in which when a change is made to the functions of apparatuses that execute a cooperative processing flow, the definition of the cooperative processing flow is changed and executed without requiring the user to perform complicated tasks, and a control method thereof. To accomplish this, the image processing apparatus of the present invention confirms, before starting execution of processing in accordance with a cooperative processing flow in which a procedure of cooperative processing performed in cooperation with a plurality of external apparatuses has been defined in advance, whether or not each of a plurality of functions included in the flow is executable by each predefined external apparatus of the plurality of external apparatuses. Furthermore, the image processing apparatus changes the definition of the cooperative processing flow based on the confirmation result and starts to execute the changed flow. | 05-19-2011 |
20110235111 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit and a provision unit. The receiving unit receives a display instruction regarding information about data whose printing is reserved from a device. The provision unit provides the device with a screen for displaying a reservation job including a print button for instructing print of data at a time of receiving reservation and a print button for instructing print of data at a time of receiving the display instruction in a case where the display instruction is received by the receiving unit and data at the time of receiving the reservation are different from data at the time of receiving the display instruction. | 09-29-2011 |
20120268778 | PRINT RELAY SYSTEM, PRINTING SYSTEM, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING PRINT RELAY SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM - When it is determined that a desired printing result can be acquired without converting print data of a print server, a print job is generated to acquire the print data not via a relay virtual printer. | 10-25-2012 |
20130073639 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR THE SAME, AND PROGRAM - A mechanism for reducing an operator's time and effort in image data distribution is provided. To accomplish this, an image processing apparatus, which is capable of communicating with a server that provides a microblogging function for publicizing a message registered by a user to other users, registers the first message with the server if image data is stored in a memory; monitors a second message newly registered with respect to the registered first message; analyzes the second message if the second message is detected; and transmits image data based on the result of the analysis. | 03-21-2013 |
20140176995 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A plurality of received documents is stored, and a plurality of documents transmitted from the same transmitting source as an identified document is selected from the stored plurality of documents. A screen is then provided which allows information on the plurality of documents that have been selected, to be collectively registered. | 06-26-2014 |
20150089490 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, DEVICE, SOFTWARE INSTALLATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus stores a saving instruction for a script and data containing its identification information in a USB storage, in the case where the image forming apparatus detects that the script and the data required for software installation corresponding to itself does not exist in the USB storage when the USB storage is connected. A computer acquires a script and data corresponding to identification information of an image forming apparatus contained in a saving instruction, and saves them to the USB storage, in the case where the computer detects that the saving instruction exists in the USB storage when the USB storage is connected. The image forming apparatus then executes software installation using the script and the data contained in the USB storage, when this USB storage containing the script and the data, which were saved by the saving step, corresponding to the image forming apparatus is connected. | 03-26-2015 |
