20130215460 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM - On a Web service apparatus, messages are monitored and obtained. The contents of an obtained message are analyzed, and if it is determined that the message includes a print instruction for a follower, the corresponding file is obtained from the Web service apparatus, printed, and after the print completes, a comment relating to the print is sent to the Web service apparatus. | 08-22-2013 |
20140055804 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREOF - An image processing apparatus capable of communicating with a server that provides a microblogging function authenticates a user and acquires, in accordance with an authentication of the user, a message registered on the server by the authenticated user. The image processing apparatus determines whether or not the acquired message requests processing of image data, and in a case where the acquired message requests processing of the image data, the image processing apparatus processes the image data designated by the message. | 02-27-2014 |
20140055805 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREOF - An image processing apparatus that communicates with a server that has a microblogging function performs user authentication processing and follows a user authenticated by the user authentication processing in accordance with the performing user authentication processing succeeding. | 02-27-2014 |
20140055814 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREOF - An image processing apparatus capable of communicating with a server that provides a microblogging function detects a registration of a first message to the server, acquires image data indicated by the first message whose registration is detected, outputs the acquired image data and registers to the server a second message on the first message registered to the server, in a case where the image data is not output within a predetermined time period. | 02-27-2014 |
20140146362 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a setting when an input image is output, a determination unit configured, by acquiring a number of sheets of the input image and a content of the setting received by the reception unit and acquiring a number of output sheets reduced by executing blank-sheet skip processing on the image, to determine whether an effect is achieved when the blank-sheet skip is executed, and a display unit configured to perform a display for prompting an execution of the blank-sheet skip processing determined as having the effect by the determination unit. | 05-29-2014 |
20150015918 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ENLARGING OBJECT INCLUDED IN IMAGE DATA, AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREFOR - An image processing apparatus includes a first determination unit configured to determine whether a pixel included in image data belongs to an edge, a second determination unit configured to determine whether a pixel included in the image data is achromatic, and a processing unit configured to perform process for forming a pixel only with an achromatic color material on a pixel determined as belonging to an edge and being achromatic. In a case where the pixel has been determined as belonging to an edge and being achromatic, the processing unit determines whether the process is to be performed on a pixel adjacent to the pixel which has been determined as belonging to an edge and being achromatic, and, in a case where it has been determined that the process is to be performed, performs the process on the adjacent pixel. | 01-15-2015 |

20080301723 | OPTICAL DISC APPARATUS - An optical disc apparatus includes a cam slider with a rack-gear section. The cam slider includes a first sloping surface that is elastically deformed, generating a force for separating the rack-gear section from the cam slider, when receiving a force that acts in the same direction as to eject an optical disc, and a second sloping surface that generates a force for coupling the rack-gear section to the cam slider again, when pressed with a force that acts in the same direction as the rack-gear section separated from the cam slider ejects an optical disc. The cam slider is moved in the direction opposite to the direction in which first and second guide arms transport the optical disc in order to load or eject the optical disc. The cam slider transmits a drive force provided by a loading motor to the first and second guide arms. | 12-04-2008 |
20090249376 | OPTICAL DISC APPARATUS - According to one embodiment, an optical disc apparatus includes a disc motor configured to hold and rotate an optical disc, a motor support mechanism configured to support the disc motor to be movable, a motor lift mechanism configured to ascend and descend the disc motor among a ascending position, a descending position, and a disc drive position between the ascending position and the descending position, a clamp release member arranged to be movable between a clamp release position, at which the clamp release member contacts with the optical disc to regulate movement of the optical disc, and an evacuate position at which the clamp release member is separated from the optical disc, and a release member lift mechanism configured to ascend and descend the clamp release member in synchronism with the ascent and descent of the disc motor. | 10-01-2009 |
20140209440 | ENERGY-STORING UNIT WITH FORCING MECHANISM, AND ON-LOAD TAP CHANGING DEVICE - An energy-storing unit with a forcing mechanism and an on-load tap changing device provided with the same which employ an inexpensive and simple structure and which can suppress a loading torque to operate stably. A forcing mechanism built in an energy-storing unit includes a protrusion, a bearing, and a loading cam. Among those components, the protrusion is attached to the bottom face of an eccentric cam, and the bearing is attached to the tip of the protrusion. The loading cam is an isosceles triangle having a vertex that is substantially 90 degrees, and is attached to the top face of an energy-storing case. The loading cam becoming in contact with the bearing causes a crank to rotate through the energy-storing case, and feeds a catch to a standby position. | 07-31-2014 |
