An output system includes a terminal device, an image-forming apparatus, and a server device. The terminal device includes an acquirer that acquires content from the server device, a generator that generates job data including a setting for outputting the content based on the acquired content, a transmitter that transmits the job data to the image-forming apparatus, and a reception slip outputter that outputs a reception slip including a reception number corresponding to the generated job data. The image-forming apparatus includes a receiver that receives the job data from the terminal device, and an outputter that outputs the content after executing a job based on the job data corresponding to the reception number when the reception number is input.

Output system for outputting content acquired from server device and terminal device for outputting reception slip to be used in output of content

A printing control system comprising: a plurality of image forming apparatuses set as parent units; and a plurality of image forming apparatuses set as child units, all of which are connected together through a network, wherein a child of the child units unit obtains a job list response from any one of the parent units either storing a print data item to be identified with a job name of a print data item included in a job list information item requested by a job list request, or not storing the print data item.

Printing control system

A printing control system includes: parent units and child units connected together through a network, the parent units including a first memory, and the child units including: a second memory; a job list request provider that transmits a job list request to connectable parent units and a job list response obtainer that obtains a job list response sent back. If a first child unit detects a parent unit not sending back the job list response within a predetermined time period, the first child unit stores, in a non-response parent unit information item, the parent unit not sending back the job list response, and when the first child unit transmits the job list request at a next time, the first child unit transmits the job list request to a parent unit other than the parent unit stored in the non-response parent unit information item.

A printing system includes a plurality of image forming apparatuses capable of mutually communicating with a portable terminal device and a client terminal device. The client terminal device generates a print job that includes print data and job information. The portable terminal device stores job information transmitted from the client terminal device. The image forming apparatus acquires the job information from the portable terminal device, acquires the print data corresponding to the job information from the client terminal device, and execute image output the print data.

Printing system and control method of printing system

An image processing apparatus has a function of printing pieces of image data to be printed arranging them on one printing paper sheet. In a preview display screen of the image processing apparatus, when a specific piece of image data is selected by a user's operation from a plural piece of image data, the specific piece of image data is displayed being distinguished. Pieces of image data in the same shooting orientation as that of the specific piece of image data are searched for and their display is similarly varied. At this time, when rotation of the images is selected using a dialogue, the orientation of the pieces of image data is rotated at once by 180&#xb0;. Thereby, the orientations of pieces of image data shot in a portrait-like posture may easily be adjusted to be the same and their images may be printed according to the preview display.

Image processing apparatus

A substrate cutting system which requires a small footprint area so as to be compact, and also which is capable of efficiently cutting a substrate is disclosed. A pair of substrate cutting devices are provided in a cutting device guide bodyso as to be movable along a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the clamp devices, the pair of substrate cutting devices cutting the mother substrate from each of the top surface and the bottom surface of the mother substrate which is clamped by the clamp devices
