A method and system of configuring a network using a network application of a mobile device including detecting a gesture sequence that comprises at least one gesture, in response to a user performed action. The detected gesture sequence may be indicative of network configuration rules associated with at least one network device. The method may further include receiving and storing network access credentials, and accessing a network configuration database. The network configuration database may comprise a plurality of gesture sequences and a plurality of associated tasks. The method may also include determining a match for the detected gesture sequence among the plurality of gesture sequences; determining an associated task based on the match; and performing the associated task to achieve the network configuration action. The associated task may include a network configuration action based on the network configuration rules associated with at least one network device.

There is provided an information processing apparatus. A processing unit receives original document data defining a design of an original document and processes the original document data so as to conform to a completion state of the original document during output. A creating unit creates output data in which the original document based on the processed original document data is disposed in an arrangement region on a recording medium having the original document formed thereon in a case where a ratio of a region of the original document based on the processed original document data to the arrangement region falls within an arrangement limitation, in a case where an amount of processing performed by the processing unit falls within a processing limitation.

An information processing apparatus includes a receiving part that receives processing information based on voice; and a controller that performs control so that the processing information indicated by the voice received by the receiving part is displayed on a display. The receiving part further receives modification of the processing information displayed on the display, and the controller further performs control so that the modification received by the receiving part is reflected in processing received by the receiving part.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer readable instructions that are executable by a computer in an information processing apparatus connected with a printer, is provided. The computer readable instructions cause the computer to obtain a type of an object contained in an image file, determine whether the obtained type of the object falls under a first type, and based on a determination that the obtained type of the object falls under the first type, determine a combination of applicable options for a print setting for the image file to be a first option group, and based on a determination that the obtained type of the object falls under a second type, determine a combination of applicable options for the print setting for the image file to be a second option group containing a smaller number of applicable options than the first option group.

The present image processing apparatus transmits the result of reading an original to an external terminal capable of communicating with the image processing apparatus, makes a user confirm the reading result on the external terminal, receives the confirmatory result of confirming the reading result from the external terminal, and registers the reading result to the image processing apparatus.

An image forming apparatus which can easily identify a user's erroneous operation, a controlling method of the image forming apparatus, and a program for achieving the controlling method are provided. When an operation by a user to an operation unit is accepted, the image forming apparatus obtains operation information including a key code and a screen identifier, and stores, for each job, the obtained operation information in a storing unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a detection section that detects an operation to be performed with respect to a device by a user in a non-operation state with respect to the device, and a prohibition section that prohibits reboot of the device in a case where the operation to be performed on the device is detected by the detection section.

An image inspection apparatus includes a first reader and a second reader that acquire read images by respectively reading one side and the other side of a sheet having an image printed thereon, a first background material and a second background material provided at positions as the backgrounds of the sheet in reading by the first reader and the second reader respectively, and a hardware processor that acquires sheet outline information from the read images and measures misalignment of the image with respect to the sheet based on the acquired sheet outline information. The hardware processor acquires read images with the first background material and the second background material having different densities, and acquires sheet outline information of one read image by estimating the sheet outline information of the one read image based on sheet outline information of the other of the read images.

According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes a housing, a first sensor configured to detect a user in front of the housing, an illumination light configured to emit light in an illumination direction, and an opening and closing element configured to open and close a portion of the housing. A second sensor is configured to detect the opening and the closing of the opening and closing element. An adjuster is configured to change a detection distance of the first sensor and the illumination direction in conjunction with each other by physical movement. A controller is configured to turn on the illumination light when the opening and closing element is open, and turn off the illumination light when is closed.

An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit configured to form an image on a recording material, a controller configured to control the image forming unit, a sheet feeding tray configured to store a recording material to be supplied to the image forming unit, and a sheet feeding tray cover configured to cover an access point of the sheet feeding tray. The sheet feeding tray cover includes a user interface for inputting information into a controller unit or outputting information from the controller.
