20090201551 | PRINTING APPARATUS, DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - A printing apparatus includes a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a print setting of document data from a document management apparatus, a determination unit configured to determine whether the document data can be printed using the print setting acquired by the first acquisition unit, an output unit configured to output information about a result determined by the determination unit to the document management apparatus, a second acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the document management apparatus, printing availability determination information about a determined result as to whether document data can be printed with the printing apparatus, a display unit configured to display the printing availability determination information acquired by the second acquisition unit and printing apparatus information on a display apparatus, a third acquisition unit configured to acquire document data designated by a user from the document management apparatus by requesting the document management apparatus to transmit the document data, and a printing unit configured to print the document data acquired by the third acquisition unit. | 08-13-2009 |
20100290081 | SYSTEM OPERATING UNDER WEB ENVIRONMENT AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - In a system operating under a Web environment in which a service providing server controls the provision of services with operating a Web server and a client apparatus provides service with operating a Web browser are connected via a network. The service providing server stores the history of a job with a reference destination address, and determines the status when a job status has changed, determines differing reference destination addresses to be included in the history based on the determined status, creates a file to be used to distribute updated information including the reference destination address from the history, and transmits the file to the Web browser. This arrangement enables the system providing a service in a browser-based environment and on the WWW platform to operate under a Web environment where it is possible to notify a user of an error independently of the status of a job. | 11-18-2010 |
20100293602 | SYSTEM OPERATING UNDER WEB ENVIRONMENT AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - In a system which operates under a Web environment in which a service providing server controls the provision of a service with operating a Web server and a client apparatus provides service with operating a Web browser, which are connected via a network. The service providing server stores the history of a job for providing the service with the user ID of a user who requests the service, then acquires, from stored histories, a history having a user ID matched to the user ID of a user who sends a request to browse the history of a job. When the Web server receives the browsing request from the user of the client apparatus via the Web browser, the service providing server creates a file for distributing updated information based on the acquired history, and transmits the file to the Web browser. | 11-18-2010 |
20110282987 | COMMUNICATION METHOD, SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM - A communication method between service modules in a system in which service modules operating on a plurality of information processing apparatuses connected with a network operate in collaboration with each other, the system includes a monitoring apparatus that is provided with a monitor module monitoring a connection between service modules in the system and that has connection management information including identifier information for uniquely identifying an information processing apparatus in which a service module is operating in the system, and connection information including external connection information for the service module to perform communication using an external network between the information processing apparatuses and internal connection information for the service module to perform communication using an internal network of the information processing apparatus. | 11-17-2011 |
20110317209 | PRINTING SYSTEM, PRINT MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, PRINT CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A printing system may include an archive job management apparatus and a print management apparatus. The archive job management apparatus stores job information relating a destination of an archive job, a quantity printing limit for the archive job, and archive job print history and manages the stored job information. The print management apparatus instructs printing of an archive job according to a print request from a client apparatus and includes an acquisition unit and a determination unit. Per the print request, the acquisition unit acquires the quantity printing limit and print history of the archive job. The determination unit determines that the archive job is printable if a number of times the archive job has been actually printed is equal to or less than a limiting number of times of printing based on a number of times of restrictive printing and the print history of the print requested archive job. | 12-29-2011 |
20120284400 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR MANAGING COMMUNICATIONS AMONG SERVICE MODULES - A communication method between service modules in a system in which service modules operating on a plurality of information processing apparatuses connected with a network operate in collaboration with each other, the system includes a monitoring apparatus that is provided with a monitor module monitoring a connection between service modules in the system and that has connection management information including identifier information for uniquely identifying an information processing apparatus in which a service module is operating in the system, and connection information including external connection information for the service module to perform communication using an external network between the information processing apparatuses and internal connection information for the service module to perform communication using an internal network of the information processing apparatus. | 11-08-2012 |
20130019300 | SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, SERVICE PROVIDING APPARATUS, RELAY APPARATUS AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUMAANM Uchida; TakayukiAACI Kawasaki-shiAACO JPAAGP Uchida; Takayuki Kawasaki-shi JP - A system in which a first service providing apparatus, a second service providing apparatus, and at least one authentication apparatus cooperate with each other to provide a service by single sign-on to be used by a user, the second service providing apparatus comprises a management unit that manages belonging information for specifying a group to which the user belongs, and a transmission unit that transmits to the client terminal, when an instruction to provide a service by the first service providing apparatus is accepted from the user while providing a service by the second service providing apparatus, information for accessing the first service providing apparatus and the belonging information if the management unit manages the belonging information of the group to which the user belongs. | 01-17-2013 |
20130326608 | COOPERATION SYSTEM, COOPERATION METHOD THEREOF, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A client sends a request to start to use a service via an information processing system that is a cooperation source, acquires identification information indicating that authentication has been successfully performed based on group authentication information set for a group to which a user belongs, and then transmits the identification information to an information processing system that is a cooperation destination. | 12-05-2013 |
