The web server program causes the information processing apparatus to function as: a reception unit that receives a request from a web application executed on the web browser; an acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the request, information about a domain of the web application executed on the web browser; a determination unit that determines whether or not to permit communication with the web application executed on the web browser, based on the domain indicated in the information acquired by the acquisition unit; and a transmission unit that transmits a response to the web browser based on the result of determination of the determination unit, wherein the web server program communicates with an external apparatus connected to a network, and acquires, from the external apparatus, information used for authentication or authorization by the external apparatus.

Information processing apparatus, control method therefor, non-transitory computer-readable medium, and information processing system

The present invention is applicable to a peripheral device which performs processing based on information from an information processing device. The peripheral device of present invention is characterized by a storage unit, which stores in it a program of controlling of designated processing, and stores in it data for controlling the peripheral device, and by a communication unit which sends the program stored in the storage unit to the information processing device, and by a control unit which controls operation of the peripheral device based on an instruction information written into the storage unit upon execution of the program on the information processing device.

Peripheral device and image reading device

A control program for using a peripheral apparatus is loaded from the peripheral apparatus to the memory of an information processing apparatus. A management program manages the display form of a control object based on execution of the control program. The control object displayed on the information processing apparatus can be switched between the non-display state and the display state. For example, the management program causes the information processing apparatus to execute return from the non-display state to the display state in synchronism with the user manipulation of the peripheral apparatus.

Program executed in information processing apparatus to control peripheral apparatus

An image reading apparatus including a shading correction mechanism that can be formed by fewer component parts than conventional ones, and is increased in the degree of freedom of design, thereby enabling reduction of the size and weight thereof. A contact glass guides an original to an image reading position. A glass holding member holds the glass. A line image sensor reads an image on the original conveyed to the image reading location, through the contact glass. A reference member is disposed at a location different from the image reading location on the contact glass. A moving mechanism relatively moves the line image sensor and the reference member so that the line image sensor can alternatively read the original conveyed to the image reading location and the reference member. A drive section externally drives the moving mechanism to move the line image sensor and/or the reference member.

Image reading apparatus, shading correction method therefor, and program for implementing the method

An information reading system comprising an information processing apparatus, a first information reading apparatus which is connected to the information processing apparatus and reads information on a sheet and a second information reading apparatus which is connectable to one of the information processing apparatus and the first information reading apparatus, and reads information on a sheet. The information processing apparatus comprises a control program including a first driver required to control the first information reading apparatus, and a second driver required to control the second information reading apparatus. Control information from the information processing apparatus to the second information reading apparatus is transmitted via the first driver and the second driver.

Information reading system for reading information on document

An image reading apparatus which is capable of performing accurate shading correction with simple arrangement while preventing a reference member from being scratched and preventing paper powder and the like dust from being deposited on the reference member. The image reading apparatus includes an image reading unit in which a contact glass guides an original on an image reading location. The contact glass is held by a glass holding member. A line image sensor reads the image on the original conveyed on the image reading location, through the contact glass. The image reading unit further includes a reference member whose image is readable by the image sensor, and a moving mechanism to move the image sensor so as to enable the image sensor to alternatively read the original and a reference surface of the reference member.

Image reading apparatus, image reading unit thereof, and reference member thereof for shading correction

A scanner is provided with an image memory for storing therein image data read from an original by an image sensor, an image processing portion for effecting image processing on the image data, and a sending portion for sending the image data to an external equipment. The image processing portion is disposed in a route along which the image data is forwarded from the image memory to the sending portion, and the contents of the image processing by the image processing portion is made changeable over. The external equipment is provided with an image analyzing portion for obtaining first image data image-processed in a first image mode from the scanner and analyzing it, and detecting the state of the original (such as whether the original is a white sheet) from which the first image data has been read. On the basis of the result of the detection by the image analyzing portion, second image data image-processed in a second image mode is obtained from the scanner.

Image processing apparatus, controlling method for image processing apparatus, and program

A search apparatus includes a device for transporting a long recording medium and positioning a desired image on the recording medium in a predetermined position, and a device for moving a carrier, supporting the recording medium, in the width direction thereof. The apparatus is provided with a detection device for detecting the reference position of the carrier, and when the carrier is moved, the moving distance of the carrier is measured without failure after the reference position has been detected. Movement of the carrier is controlled on the basis of the measurement value.

Information searching apparatus

An image exposure apparatus switchable between a reader state for projecting an image on a screen for observation and a scan state for scanning exposure of the image, which includes plural scanning mirrors which integrally move on a same line to effect the image scanning. The mutual distance of the plural scanning mirrors is varied at the switching between the reader state and the scan state.
