Abstract:
An image forming apparatus including: a user interface unit to provide one or more shortcuts; a storage unit to store shortcut information about functions corresponding to the one or more shortcuts and options related to the functions; a job executing unit; and a control unit to control the job executing unit to perform the function corresponding to the selected shortcut, wherein when the shortcut is selected, the control unit controls the job executing unit to perform the function corresponding to the selected shortcut or controls the user interface unit to display an option setting page to set an option necessary to perform the function corresponding to the selected shortcut.
Abstract:
A mobile apparatus includes a user interface configured to allow a user to select an image scan apparatus, a communication interface configured to transmit a scan command to the selected image scan apparatus and receive a plurality of image data from the selected image scan apparatus via a streaming method, and a controller configured to generate a scan image using the plurality of image data.
Abstract:
A method of performing user authentication in an image forming apparatus, the method including detecting whether an interruption or a failure has occurred during authentication using an external authentication server; providing a user interface (UI) screen image for selecting to retry the authentication using the external authentication server or to enter a temporary authentication mode that does not use the external authentication server; when it is selected to enter the temporary authentication mode, entering an administrator authentication mode or an internal authentication mode based on pre-set temporary authentication options; and receiving information necessary for authentication and performing authentication based on a current authentication mode.
Abstract:
A system which provides a solution service to an image forming apparatus and includes a solution server having a solution application installed therein, an image forming apparatus configured to provide a user interface (UI) for the solution application and perform a job requested by the solution server, and a message server configured to communicate with the solution server and the image forming apparatus. The solution server transmits a job request to the message server by using a message protocol, and the image forming apparatus receives the job request by accessing the message server.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus and a method of controlling the image forming apparatus are provided. The method includes detecting a conflicting option that is impossible to be set simultaneously with a plurality of options selected for a job of the image forming apparatus, reflecting the detected conflicting option to display an option setting screen for the job of the image forming apparatus, and if a conflicting option is selected on the displayed option setting screen, displaying an option list user interface (UI) window in an area of the displayed option setting screen, wherein the option list UI window includes a replaceable option that replaces an option that is impossible to be set simultaneously with the conflicting option.
