| 20100192147 | METHOD OF INSTALLING SOFTWARE, PROGRAM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - In an information processing apparatus, when an installation execution instruction is input, a package which is instructed by the execution instruction, and packages which are in a dependence relationship with the package are set as an install items. For each of the packages, a license text indicated by text data in the package is set as a display text for a license dialog. A group of packages having the same license which is to be concluded is detected by comparing display texts which are set in packages, with one another, and, for each group of packages having the same license, a license dialog in which the common display text is described is displayed. In this case, the user is inquired about the intention of agreement conclusion while identification information of packages corresponding to the license is described together with the license which is the display text, in the dialog. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100250749 | NETWORK SYSTEM AND PERIPHERAL - A network system is made up of a plurality of PCs, a printer a server, and the like. The printer selects one PC from among the plurality of PCs as a firmware provider. Accordingly, if there are two or more PCs that can communicate with the printer, only one PC communicates with the server at the same time. Thus, to retrieve firmware from the server, a plurality of PCs can be prevented from communicating with the server at the same time, so that concentration of access to the server can be suppressed. Therefore, an increase in the network traffic can be suppressed. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100271663 | Device information management system - A device information management system has a plurality of managed computers connected with devices. Device information of each device is to be transmitted to a requestor upon request thereby. That is, each of the plurality of managed computers has a data spooler that adds jobs in a data queue. The jobs in the data queue is transmitted to the device one by one. An information requesting system transmits a request command that requests a device to return the device information when the number of jobs in the data queue is equal to or less than a predetermined value. Then, an information receiving system receives the device information returned from the device, which is stored in the storage. The stored device information is transmitted to the requestor in response to inquiry therefrom. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110102856 | Computer Readable Medium Having Facsimile Driver Program Facsimile System and Computer Executable Method Using The Facsimile Driver Program - A computer readable medium having a computer program product stored thereon, the computer program product including instructions for ordering a computer to perform the following steps. The steps include a first receiving step of receiving a facsimile command from a client device configured to executes a facsimile application program, a first determining step of determining whether or not to allow communication with a facsimile device based on a predetermined condition when receiving the facsimile command at the first receiving step, and a transferring step of transferring the facsimile command received at the first receiving step to the facsimile device when the communication is allowed at the first determining step. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20080215666 | Information Delivery Device and Information Processing Method - There is provided an information delivery device including a command transmission unit configured to accept a command request from a client and to transmit a command corresponding to the command request to a device, an information obtaining unit configured to obtain device information transmitted from the device as a response to the command, an information storage unit configured to store the device information obtained by the information obtaining unit, a judgment unit configured to judge which of current device information obtained by the information obtaining unit and past deice information stored in the information storage unit should be provided for a requesting source, the current device information corresponding to device information presently set to the device, and an information providing unit configured to provide one of the current device information and the past device information for the requesting source in accordance with a judgment result of the judgment unit. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080239359 | Image Forming Device - An image forming device is provided with a print data retrieving unit configured to retrieve print data from the external storage, and an image forming unit configured to form an image on a recording sheet based on the print data. If the modifying information representing modification of at least one of a command and data, which constitute the print data, is stored in the external storage, the print data is read out. A modifying unit modifies the at least one of the command and the data of the print data based on the modifying information. The image forming unit forms the image based on the modified print data. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080239384 | Image Formation System, Data Processing Device, Computer-Readable Record Medium, and Image Formation Device - In an image formation system comprising a data processing device and an image formation device, the data processing device includes: a print data storing unit which stores print data in a portable storage medium; an image data generating unit which generates image data to be displayed by the image formation device in regard to the print data; and an image data storing unit which stores the image data in the portable storage medium while associating the image data with the print data. The image formation device includes an image formation unit which forms an image on a print medium based on print data stored in the portable storage medium while being associated with image data corresponding to the image displayed by a display unit and selected by a selection unit when printing is requested regarding the image. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080244106 | Portable Storage Medium - A portable storage medium is provided with a connection unit which is connectable to an external device and enables data communication between the portable storage medium and the external device connected to the connection unit, a data storage unit which stores data received from the external device via the connection unit, and a data conversion unit capable of applying data conversion from print data into display data to the data stored in the data storage unit. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080244123 | Storage Medium - A storage medium connectable with an external device includes a data communication unit performing data communication with the external device, a data storing unit storing therein data received from and/or to be sent to the external device via the data communication unit, a first device information output unit sending first device information for making the external device recognize the storage medium as a storage to the external device via the data communication unit, and a second device information output unit sending second device information for making the external device recognize the storage medium as a printer to the external device via the data communication unit. When the data communication unit receives print data transmitted by the external device in case where the second device information is sent, the data storing unit stores the print data in a state readable externally via the data communication unit. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080307417 | Document registration system, information processing apparatus, and computer usable medium therefor - A document registration system for registering a plurality of electronic documents is provided. The document registration system includes an information processing apparatus having a display unit and a storage unit. The information processing apparatus is provided with a registration unit, which can be operated to perform a registration process to register the electronic documents in an interactive processing mode, wherein the electronic documents are registered manually, and in a batch processing mode, wherein the electronic documents are registered automatically in a batch, and a first switching unit to mutually switch activation of the interactive processing mode and the batch processing mode. | 12-11-2008 |
