    Abstract: In a case where image processing, in which a ratio of the number of color pixels greatly fluctuates, is executed after performing charging determination, an output result might not match a result of the charging determination. There is provided a device for determining a color of an output image in a case where an image to be printed is printed with an additional image attached thereto, the device including: a unit configured to divide the image to be printed into blocks of a predetermined size; a unit configured to calculate an average value of color components of pixels included in the block; a correction value calculation unit configured to correct a calculated average value using a correction value corresponding to the additional image; and a color/monochrome determination processing unit configured to determine, based on the corrected average value, whether the block is a color block or a monochrome block.

    Abstract: Separating the physical sheets outputted from a shared users printer, especially, a facsimile receiver, into separate job sets for separate designed recipients, with an independent "mailboxing" job sorting accessory unit, not requiring any electronic connection to the printer, controlled solely by physical job cover sheets outputted by the printer at the same output in advance of the other sheets of the job, which cover sheets variably encoded with simply and uncritically marked areas indicative of an assigned bin number and the job sheet count. The unit sequentially takes the printer output sheets and feeds them through a sheet input with optical sensing connecting with a control for detecting the marked area encoding of the cover sheet and determining if it corresponds to an assigned bin number, for feeding the subsequent output sheets of the designated sheet count to a designated bin subsequent to such a detection; and for feeding output sheets to another output sheet collection bin if no such encoding is detected. The disclosed unit also desirably has bin locking for restricting access to individual bins with electrical unlocking of a bin in response to entry of a bin access code. Also disclosed is automatic bin recipient telephoning.

    Abstract: A scanning device includes a mechanism and/or process for scanning a document and generating scan data that reflects the document. The scanning device is configured with a secure scanning mode of operation that allows scan data to be securely transmitted to one or more recipients and also controls physical access to a document. Secure scanning may be initiated manually by a user or initiated automatically based upon an identification or authentication of the user and/or one more recipients of the scan data. The scanning device may also be configured to generate and provide status data to a user that indicates the current status of a scanning operation and/or the successful delivery of scan data to one or more recipients. The device may also be configured to determine the proximity of a user with respect to the device and use the proximity information to provide various notifications.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to attesting a document that contains encoded data, such as a barcode or DataGlyph. When a document contains encoded data that is not in human-readable form, the document is checked to determine whether content in the encoded data appears somewhere in the document in human-readable form. Based on the amount of content that appears in the document, the document may be marked with a seal that attests to the amount of content in the encoded data that appears in human-readable form. The seal may be visually distinctive to facilitate easy recognition by a user or device.

The disclosed unit also desirably has bin locking for restricting access to individual bins with electrical unlocking of a bin in response to entry of a bin access code. The remote recipient notification is an integral automatic bin recipient messaging (telephoning) of the pre-designated bin-holder with a recorded message telling that bin-holder is receiving or has received a job in his or her designated bin, by automatically dialing telephone numbers preprogrammed and maintained in non-volatile memory for designated bins, so that only the bin number and not the telephone number need be indicated on the controlling cover sheet.
