An image forming apparatus includes: a restriction information acquisition part that acquires print function restriction information corresponding to a user; a document acquisition part that acquires an HTML document from a Web server; a print command receiver that receives a print command; an analyzer that analyzes whether designated print setting information is included in the HTML document; a print setting determination part, in which in a case where an analysis result indicates that the designated print setting information is included in the HTML document, the print setting determination part determines, in accordance with the designated print setting information, a print setting, and in a case where an analysis result indicates that the designated print setting information is not included in the HTML, document, the print setting determination part determines the print setting in accordance with the print-function restriction information; and a print execution part that prints the print object.

An approach is provided in which an information handling system identifies a data type description corresponding a view selection initiated by a user. The view selection is selected from multiple view selections and corresponds to a set of dump data generated by a dump event. The information handling system locates a set of candidate data in the set of dump data based on the data type description and converts the set of candidate data into a set of markup language representations. In turn, the information handling system displays the set of markup language representations to the user on a display.

An image forming apparatus includes a interpretation unit, a memory control unit, and an execution unit. The interpretation unit is configured to interpret print data described in a page description language. The memory control unit is configured to control allocation a memory area to the interpretation unit. The execution unit is configured to execute printing by making the interpretation unit to which the memory area is allocated interpret the print data. The memory control unit releases the allocated memory area according to a time elapsed after the print data is interpreted without at least interpretation of print data being performed using the interpretation unit to which the memory area is allocated.

An image handling apparatus is disclosed, including an operation panel, hardware resources, a transferring part, and an image generation controlling part. The transferring part transfers image handle information input at the input screen to an external apparatus. The image generation controlling part receives and parses image generation information for at least one of the hardware resources to execute an image generation based on the image handle information, from the external apparatus in response to an instruction of the image generation, so that at least one of the hardware resources executes the image generation.

An information processing apparatus includes a storage unit configured to store, when document data whose storage is designated has been printed, the document data as history document data, a selection unit configured to select new document data that has not yet been printed on a sheet and the history document data stored by the storage unit, and a generation unit configured to generate a combined document by combining the new document data and the history document data selected by the selection unit.

The present invention relates to a device (100) for checking printing of an article, the device (100) comprising: data providing device (10) adapted to provide printing data for the article from product data of the article; camera device (20) adapted to receive an image of an article printed by a printing process and to provide it as image data; and a computer device (30) adapted to perform a quality check of the printing process based on a comparison of the printing data with the image data.

An image processing apparatus includes a list acquirer that acquires a display object that is at least one of a folder and a file including a name and a type serving as an attribute; a display name decider that decides whether a name relating to a display object is named according to the type, on the basis of predetermined rules for displaying a list, and if not a name according to a type, adds an identifier to the name according to the type; and a list generator that displays the display object in the list by utilizing the name for an acquired display object or the name having an identifier added based on a decision by the display name decider.

Provided is a system and a method for generating a printable map of a facility. The method includes receiving a request sent by a device at a print server, retrieving electronic wayfinding data by the print server, generating an initial printable map based on the electronic wayfinding data, displaying the initial printable map on the device, receiving one or more customizations entered on the device by a user, and updating the initial printable map to include the one or more customizations.

A graphical object processor has a single filter. The filter includes a program for constructing a pipeline consisted of a plurality of stages based on a print ticket. In one or more of the plurality of stages, a content box of print-target data is modified. When the content box is modified, commands respectively indicating affine transformation matrices are generated. The commands are pushed into a command stack. The pushed commands are used for modification of a visual element. Specifically, the affine transformation matrices are multiplied and thereby an integrated transformation matrix is generated. The visual element is modified by multiplying an affine transformation matrix of the visual element by the integrated transformation matrix.

A system and a method for driving an output device in which both product intent and production details are entered by a print producer on a submission portal. When a product definition is complete, the job is transferred to a prepress server where it is rendered which involves pre-flighting the job. In a next step, rendered color separations together with output device specific instructions are sent to a print server from where the job is printed.
