Patent application number | Description | Published |
20120224206 | IMAGE FORMING DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD - An image forming device that operates in one of power-saving mode and normal mode by switching therebetween comprises: an automatic response unit configured to perform control to switch from the power-saving mode to the normal mode in accordance with a protocol on which a request issued by an information terminal device is based; an analysis unit configured to analyze whether or not the information terminal device has issued a request based on a protocol that requires the switching from the power-saving mode to the normal mode without a job execution; a message generation unit configured to, when the result of the analysis by the analysis unit is affirmative, generate a message for causing the information terminal device to change the protocol; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the generated message. | 09-06-2012 |
20120268610 | INFORMATION TERMINAL CAPABLE OF TRANSMITTING FILE - An information terminal capable of transmitting a file to another device includes a display unit; a storage unit for storing a relationship between an image and a transmission destination; a designation unit for designating the image as a standby image of the display unit; an operation unit for receiving an operation to instruct transmission of the file; and a processing unit for performing a process of transmitting the file to another device in accordance with the operation. The processing unit performs a process of specifying, as a transmission destination of the file, the transmission destination related to the image set as the standby image in the display unit at a time when the operation unit receives the operation, for transmitting the file. | 10-25-2012 |
20130031516 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS HAVING TOUCH PANEL - An image processing apparatus includes an operation panel as an example of a touch panel and a display device, as well as CPU as an example of a processing unit for performing processing based on a contact. CPU includes a first identifying unit for identifying a file to be processed, a second identifying unit for identifying an operation to be executed, a determination unit for determining whether or not the combination of the file and operation as identified is appropriate, and a display unit for displaying a determination result. In the case where one of the identifying units previously detects a corresponding gesture to identify the file or the operation, and when a gesture corresponding to the other identifying unit is detected next, then the determination result is displayed on the display device before identification of the file or the operation is completed by the gesture. | 01-31-2013 |
20130057684 | CONTENT DISPLAY SUPPORT SYSTEM - When an image of content reproduced by a first reproduction device is shot, a content display support device obtains the shot image and positional information that specifies the position and orientation of a shooting device. The content display support device generates combination content by visualizing and embedding the positional information in the shot image and transmits the combination content to a second reproduction device. A portable terminal obtains the positional information from an image obtained by shooting the combination content reproduced by the second reproduction device. The portable terminal requests supplementary information by transmitting the positional information to the content display support device. The supplementary information associated with the positional information is transmitted from the content display support device to the portable terminal and displayed at the portable terminal. | 03-07-2013 |
20140022590 | COOPERATIVE IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM, COOPERATIVE IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, PORTABLE INFORMATION APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A cooperative image processing system comprises an image processing apparatus and a portable information apparatus; the image processing apparatus comprises: a file creator that creates a file; a transmitter that transmits the file to the portable information apparatus; and a log information generator that generates log information of the image processing apparatus which includes a transmission history; the portable information apparatus comprises: a display; one or more processors; a cooperation portion that shows on the display an operation screen; transmits user instructions entered through the operation screen, to the image processing apparatus; receives the file in exchange for the user instructions; and transfers the file to any one of the one or more processors; a log information obtaining portion that obtains: the log information of the image processing apparatus and that of the portable information apparatus; and a log information manager that consolidates the log information of both of them. | 01-23-2014 |
20140055802 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, ELECTRONIC PAPER PRINT METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - An image forming apparatus comprising: an e-paper storage that loads one or more sheets of e-paper; a first transmitter that transmits a target image to the one or more sheets of e-paper loaded on the e-paper storage; a detector that detects when the target image is seen via any of the one or more sheets of e-paper; a judgment portion that judges whether or not the number of sheets of e-paper via which the target image has been seen reaches the number of copies specified; and a request transmitter that, if the number of sheets of e-paper via which the target image has been seen reaches the number of copies specified while any of the one or more sheets of e-paper still remains in the e-paper storage without being seen, transmits a request to delete the target image to the remaining sheet of e-paper. | 02-27-2014 |
20160041798 | PRINTING SYSTEM, PORTABLE TERMINAL DEVICE, AND PRINT CONTROL PROGRAM - A printing system includes: a printing apparatus; a portable terminal device; and a server, which are connectable to each other, the printing apparatus including a profile creation unit, and a transmission unit, the portable terminal device including a display unit, a transfer request unit, a transfer unit, and a print instruction unit, the server including a saving unit, a reception unit, and a transmission unit, the printing apparatus further including a reception unit, and a print performing unit. | 02-11-2016 |
20160119500 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND NON-TRANSITORY DATA RECORDING MEDIUM RECORDING CONTROL PROGRAM - A processor of an MFP generates a first additional image based on an image in a designated region of a document. Furthermore, the processor of the MFP generates a second additional image showing a difference between the document and a document before revision of the document. Then, the processor of the MFP registers the first additional image and the second additional image on a server in association with a marker image showing the revised edition number of the document. | 04-28-2016 |
