    摘要: Useful information on image transmission is provided to a user who transmits an image in a network print technology.
    Features of transmitted images from a first user are specified for the transmitted images, a correspondence relationship between the feature of the transmitted image and an implementation history of image printing on a second user side is specified for each second user, a value related to an implementation frequency of the image printing is calculated for each second user and for each feature based on the correspondence relationship specified for each second user, a first image is specified among the transmitted images for each second user, two or more second users who have the feature of the first image in common are extracted, a second image having a feature of an image that is not transmitted to a target user among the extracted two or more second users and having a feature of a transmitted image that has been printed by a non-target user other than the target user is specified, and the second image is notified to the first user that has transmitted the transmitted image to the target user.

    摘要: A control method for an image processing apparatus having a remote control mode in which a control instruction is received from a terminal device, includes: causing the image processing apparatus to transition to the remote control mode; receiving, by the terminal device, an operation by RPA and giving a control instruction to the image processing apparatus, wherein the image processing apparatus cancels the remote control mode when a period during which there is no communication with the terminal device reaches a certain period of time, and in the receiving, the terminal device repeats communication with the image processing apparatus at a cycle shorter than the certain period of time after giving the control instruction to the image processing apparatus.

    摘要: A printing apparatus includes a controller configured to perform a storage printing process that includes receiving a print job containing a first user name, storing the print job in a memory, and performing printing based on the stored print job when the first user name matches a second user name after accepting the second user name input via the user interface. When a cancel instruction has been input via the user interface while the printing based on the stored print job is being performed in the storage printing process, the controller cancels the printing based on the stored print job. While a display is displaying that the print job is being received, the controller continues the storage printing process, without canceling the receipt of the print job based on an input of a cancel instruction via the user interface.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes: a job acquirer that acquires a job; a function executor that executes a function requested for the acquired job; and a completion notification selector that selects a timing for transmitting, to an information processing apparatus, a process completion notification indicating normal termination of execution of the function after the function is executed. The timing for transmitting the process completion notification to the information processing apparatus includes a job execution completion time that is a time when the execution of the function normally terminates and a job acquisition completion time that is a time before the execution of the function starts. In a status where there is a function currently being executed and no new job is acquirable, the completion notification selector selects the job acquisition completion time as the timing for transmitting the process completion notification to the information processing apparatus.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a processor configured to: retain a print command having a print deadline set therefor and received from a user, execute a billing process related to a printing process when the printing process related to the print command is completed in the image forming apparatus that has acquired the print command, and be communicable with a print server that deletes the print command if the printing process related to the print command is not executed before the print deadline is reached; receive the print command from the print server and cause a memory to store the print command; and not execute the printing process related to the print command if an execution order for the print command is received after the print deadline for the print command received from the print server has passed.
