    Abstract: A system and method for automatically scanning a physical document and performing processing actions on the scanned document are provided. The system may include a scanning device that can detect a trigger event when a portable memory device is connected to or paired with the device or when a document, including one or multiple pages, is placed on the document handler of the device. Upon detecting the trigger event, the scanning device may retrieve scan instructions from a designated folder on the portable memory device, automatically scan the document on the document handler, and perform various processing actions on the digital document file for the scanned document based on the scan instructions, with little or no user interaction. The processing actions may include storing, faxing, emailing the scanned document. The instructions for each processing action may be stored at one of multiple designated folders of the portable memory device.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are configured to print and reuse customized sample sets while printing documents. They include receiving instructions to retrieve an electronic document and processing the electronic document in a sample print mode. The electronic document are arranged in a plurality of page with each page containing readable information. They further include identifying a subset of pages of the electronic document to print in a first phase of the sample print mode and printing the subset of pages on a physical readable media in the sample print mode. They additionally include displaying a message on a user interface after completion of the first phase of the sample print mode and printing remaining pages of the electronic document on a physical readable media in response to user input based on the displayed message.

    Abstract: The disclosure discloses methods and systems for managing one or more incomplete jobs in a multi-function device. The method includes checking a stored profile of a user for a previously stored incomplete job when the user logs in into the multi-function device or a networked multi-function device. Based on the check, it is further checked if the previous incomplete job is compatible with configuration of the logged-in multi-function device. Then, based on the check, a user interface is presented with the previous incomplete job along with one or more options related to the previous incomplete job. The user is allowed to select an option of the one or more options, the one or more options allow the user to take an action related to the previous incomplete job. Finally, the previous incomplete job is executed in accordance with the selection.

    Abstract: A scanning device for automatically scanning and processing a document includes at least a port for communicating with a portable memory device, an image sensor and a processing device. The scanning device may detect a trigger event by detecting that the portable memory device is communicatively coupled to the port. The scanning device may automatically determine a scan instruction, automatically cause the image sensor to scan a physical document based on the scan instruction, determine a secure access token, and save the digital document file to the portable memory device with the secure access token. The secure access token may be an encryption key that is associated with a log-in password of an authenticated user of the scanning device. The scanning device may obtain the encryption key from a storage medium of the scanning device or from a network.

    Abstract: The disclosure discloses methods and systems for localizing a user interface based on a personal device of a user. The method includes receiving a personal device by a multi-function device, the personal device stores one or more documents, the personal device is associated with a name and each document is associated with a name, wherein the name of the personal device and the name of each document indicate a local language of the user. Upon receiving, the personal device is detected by the multi-function device. Then, the name of the personal device and the name of each document are extracted and compared with one or more pre-stored language patterns to detect the local language of the user. Upon detection, the pre-defined language of the user interface is automatically changed to the local language of the user.
