A print system includes a print service system, an information processing apparatus, and an image forming apparatus. The print service system includes a holding unit associated with a user and holding print data instructed by the user, a providing unit that provides access authorization information for the holding unit, to the information processing apparatus upon a request thereof, and an access authorizing unit that authorizes an access to the holding unit if receives the access authorization information. The information processing apparatus includes a transmitting unit that transmits the access authorization information to the image forming apparatus by proximity communication. The image forming apparatus includes an authorization information acquiring unit that acquires the access authorization information by the proximity communication, and a print data acquiring unit that sends the acquired access authorization information to the print service system, is authorized to access the holding unit, and acquires the print data.

Print system, image forming apparatus, information processing apparatus, print service system, and storage medium for authorizing access to print data held by a print service system

A printing system includes an information processing apparatus and an image forming apparatus, and the information processing apparatus includes: an acquiring unit that acquires identification information of the image forming apparatus in a printing service system from the image forming apparatus by a short-range communication; and a transmitting unit that transmits, to the printing service system, a setting request which contains the identification information of the image forming apparatus acquired by the acquiring unit and identification information of a user in the printing service system and which is a request for making a setting for permitting the user to use the image forming apparatus; and the image forming apparatus includes a holding unit that holds the identification information of the image forming apparatus in the printing service system in such a form that the identification information can be acquired by the acquiring unit of the information processing apparatus.

Printing system, information processing apparatus, computer readable medium, and image forming apparatus for providing printing services over a network

A server device includes a first accepting unit, a converting unit, a notifying unit, and a providing unit. The first accepting unit accepts a specification from a specifying device that specifies first content. In a case where a data format of the first content indicated by the specification is not a certain data format in which data is capable of being output by an output device, the converting unit converts the data format of the first content to the certain data format, thereby generating second content having the certain data format, and stores the second content. The notifying unit notifies the specifying device of a storage site of the second content. In a case where the output device requests to get content from the storage site of the second content by using information acquired from the specifying device, the providing unit provides the second content to the output device.

Server device, output system, server method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A control device includes a first acquisition unit that acquires a first notification reservation request which requests a notification reservation of an event and includes first identification information for identifying a notification destination of the event, a second acquisition unit that acquires a second notification reservation request which requests a notification reservation of an event and includes second identification information for identifying a notification destination of the event, and a first controller that performs a control such that information regarding the notification reservation of the event requested by the second notification reservation request is stored in a memory according to a difference between the first identification information and the second identification information.

Control device, image output apparatus, image output system, non-transitory computer readable medium, and control method

An information processing system including an information processing device connected to a first communication network, a terminal device connected to the first communication network, and a server device connected to a second communication network. The server device includes a receiving unit, a first request unit, and a providing unit. The receiving unit receives an instruction from the terminal device to provide the information processing device with a predetermined service. The first request unit presents a test to the information processing device to authenticate whether or not the information processing device is being operated by a human. The providing unit provides the information processing device with the service in accordance with the instruction. The terminal device includes an instruction unit and a response unit. The instruction unit sends the instruction to the server device. The response unit makes a response to the test on behalf of the information processing device.

Information processing system, information processing device, server device, and method

An image processing system 1 (information processing system) includes a plurality of input interfaces 11, 12, and 13 for inputting image data output from a plurality of host systems C, PC1, and PC2, an input buffer 41 for storing the image data input through the input interfaces, determination mechanism for determining the upper limit value of the storage amount of the image data stored in the input buffer 41 for at least one of the input interfaces 11-13, and mechanism for storing image data in the input buffer in a scattering manner so as not to exceed the upper limit value determined by the determination mechanism.

Image processing system and information processing system

A job development task performs image processing on image data of input jobs. An output section control task causes the processed image data to be output from a print section, a FAX transmission/reception section, or the like. A job control task recognizes the execution state of a specified job. A UI control task determines alterable process items relating to the specified job in accordance with the recognized execution state, and causes those process items to be displayed on a display device of an operation section. As a result, in altering a certain process item of the job, the process items that can be set are displayed in accordance with the job state of the specified job, which allows the user to alter the process item correctly and quickly.
