20100238493 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHODS THEREOF - This invention provides an image forming apparatus which prevents unauthorized printing without impairing the user's convenience. To accomplish this, upon reception of the print job, the image forming apparatus determines if the print job is a storage target job. If the print job is a storage target job, the image forming apparatus temporarily stores the print job in a memory without starting printing. The image forming apparatus creates and transmits a URL which is required to access a Web server included in the self apparatus and is uniquely assigned to the print job, to the external apparatus which transmitted the print job. After that, when an access to the URL is generated, the image forming apparatus starts printing the temporarily stored print job. | 09-23-2010 |
20110060951 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, CONTROL METHODS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An apparatus determines whether a current display is a web screen, when a user operation performed via the web screen indicates a display of a native screen and when a web server instructs the apparatus to display the native screen. The apparatus switches the current display to the native screen when the current display is the web screen, and maintains the current display when the current display is not the web screen. | 03-10-2011 |
20110279845 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND CONTROL METHOD AND STORAGE MEDIUM THEREFOR - An information processing apparatus capable of continuing execution of a job performed thus far, even if a user's screen transition operation is performed while the job is being executed. When a job is executed, an MFP as the information processing apparatus determines whether there is a job previously in execution based on execution states of jobs managed by a cookie information management part. If there is a job previously in execution, the MFP makes an inquiry about an execution result of the job to a job status management unit that manages job execution results on a per job basis, and according to a result of the inquiry, changes an operation screen to be displayed on a display unit and a job to be executed. | 11-17-2011 |
20120127510 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An information processing apparatus capable of collecting electronic data efficiently and avoiding sharing highly confidential and secure electronic data with an indefinite number of users. The information processing apparatus is connected to an external apparatus through a network. The information processing apparatus receives electronic data from the external apparatus, registers attribute information related to the received electronic data in association with the received electronic data so that the received electronic data can be retrieved by using the attribute information, and controls the registering unit so as to register the attribute information related to the received electronic data when the received electronic data is not confidential data, and so as not to register the attribute information related to the received electronic data when the received electronic data is confidential data. | 05-24-2012 |
20120133966 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF AND STORAGE MEDIUM - When an MFP receives an operation screen from an external apparatus, it also receives information about specific hardware resource of the MFP to be used for the image processing based on the operation screen. When the image processing cannot be executed using the specific hardware resource of the MFP due to the error that has occurred in the MFP, the error screen is controlled not to be displayed. | 05-31-2012 |
20120158956 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF AND PROGRAM - The present invention provides an information processing apparatus that, when a particular event that is different from an operation event made on an operation screen provided by a web server has occurred, actively transmits a notification of the event to the web server and a control method thereof. To accomplish this, the information processing apparatus is configured such that, when a particular event that is different from operation events made on the operation screen provided by the web server has occurred in the information processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus determines whether or not the web server is waiting for notification of the particular event and if the web server is waiting for notification of the particular event, the information processing apparatus notifies the web server of the particular event. | 06-21-2012 |
20130050753 | PRINTING APPARATUS, PRINTING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A printing apparatus receives a transmission request of information to be used by an information processing apparatus to transmit an image to the printing apparatus via an image processing apparatus from the information processing apparatus including the image. The printing apparatus transmits the information to the information processing apparatus if the transmission request is received. Then, the printing apparatus acquires the image that the information processing apparatus transmits using the information and prints the acquired image. | 02-28-2013 |
20130094048 | PRINTING SYSTEM AND PRINTING DEVICE - In a system in which printing is performed by attaching electronic data to an electronic mail and transmitting the electronic mail to a printing device, the system includes a terminal, a printing device, and a server. The terminal includes a search-request transmitting unit to transmit a printing-service search request to a network. The printing device includes a search-response transmitting unit to transmit a printing-service search response including an authentication token in a case where the printing device has received the printing-service search request. The terminal further includes a mail transmitting unit to, in the case of transmission of print data using an electronic mail, also transmit an authentication token. The printing device further includes a determining unit to determine whether the authentication token transmitted by the terminal and the authentication token that the printing device holds match, and give, in accordance with a result of the determination, permission for printing. | 04-18-2013 |

In this manner, the positional information about the information processing apparatus is set as the positional information about the image forming apparatus. | 12-26-2013 |
20140009786 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus wirelessly communicates with an information processing apparatus without passing through an access point, provides a print service in which predetermined printing is performed in response to a print request from the information processing apparatus via a wireless communication unit, and enables a setting that is used for providing the print service if the setting is disabled when the information processing apparatus establishes communication with the image processing apparatus via the wireless communication unit. | 01-09-2014 |
20140240767 | PRINTING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A user preregisters to a printing apparatus IPP print settings used when printing print data received through IPP. Upon reception of the print data through IPP, the printing apparatus prints the print data based on the preregistered IPP print settings. The printing apparatus includes a printing unit configured to perform printing, a storage unit configured to store settings regarding printing using a specific print protocol, a reception unit configured to receive print data transmitted from an external apparatus, a determination unit configured to, when the reception unit receives print data by using the specific print protocol, determine whether a communication method used for receiving the print data is a specific communication method, and a control unit configured to, based on a result of determination by the determination unit, determine whether the settings stored in the storage unit are to be used when printing the print data. | 08-28-2014 |
20140268221 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A communication apparatus operable to perform communication with a communication terminal, and a method of controlling the apparatus.
