    Abstract: A control method for a scanning system that reduces load on an information processing apparatus when transmitting scanned data to a cloud server requiring an access token is provided. The control method includes acquiring, by an information processing apparatus, an access token from an authorization server, transmitting, by the information processing apparatus, the access token and an address of a cloud server in a first transmission, receiving, by an image forming apparatus, the address and the access token transmitted in the first transmission, scanning, by the image forming apparatus, a document based on the reception of the address and the access token, and transmitting, by the image forming apparatus, the image data generated by scanning the document and the access token to the cloud server in a second transmission.

    Abstract: An information processing method to be performed by an information processing apparatus according to an embodiment may include: causing an authentication processor to perform a login authentication based on an operation performed on an operation section; and causing an exclusive control executor that gives a usage right to use a function to the operation section after the operation section is authenticated by the login authentication and releases the usage right given to the operation section in a case where no response is received from the operation section for a predetermined time after the usage right is given to determine, based on a detection result by a status detector that detects a status of the information processing apparatus, whether or not to release the usage right given to the operation section after the predetermined time passes.

    Abstract: A multifunction peripheral stores normal user information for executing user authentication in and an auxiliary storage. The multifunction peripheral has a quick login mode for simple authentication. When registering a new user in the quick login mode, the CPU determines whether a login name in the normal user information of an existing user matches a login name of the new user. When the two login names match, the user is allowed to select whether to associate the new user with the existing user. When selected to associate the new user with the existing user, the quick user information of the new user including the first management information and the second management information is generated using at least user ID in the normal user information of the existing user, the first management information is stored in the auxiliary storage, and the second management information is stored in a main storage.

    Abstract: A method and system for eliminating contraband in legal postal mail at a correctional facility comprising of a facility-use legal mail scanning station and a network of inmate-accessible devices and or messaging systems such that correctional institution staff can inspect the legal mail for contraband without violating an inmate's right to privacy for such mail. The legal mail is scanned by the staff member or inmate under the supervision of a staff member and then shredded or placed into the inmate's personal property in secure storage. The scanned mail may then be made available to the intended inmate through the inmate-accessible devices or printed at the scanning station to ensure the elimination of contraband.
