Provided is an image forming apparatus to control capturing of an execution screen displayed. A memory stores at least one application. A user interface device displays an execution screen of an application, to which a user is logged in with an identification (ID) of the user, and receives an input of capturing the execution screen. A processor determines an authority of the ID of the user to capture the execution screen by comparing a security level of the execution screen set based on the data displayed on the execution screen and a security level of the user set with respect to the ID of the user. The processor, in response to the input, controls the capturing of the execution screen, based on the determined authority of the ID of the first user.

A system comprising a multi-function device 112 configured to communicate with both a server 111 and a cloud service 121. The multi-function device 112 comprises: an output unit 407 configured to send S102, S401 identification information of the multi-function device 112 to the cloud service 121; an input unit 407 configured to receive S106, S403 controller information which identifies either the server 111 or the cloud service 121 as a controller of the multi-function device 112; and a login unit 406 configured to receive S201, S501 authentication information. The output unit 407 is further configured to send S202, S204 an authentication request including the authentication information to the controller 111, 121 identified by the controller information. The input unit 407 is further configured to receive S203, S205 an authentication response from the controller 111, 121 that indicates whether or not the authentication information is accepted.

An image forming apparatus are installed with a plurality of applications each for executing at least one of a plurality of functions of the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus includes a memory to store first information associating each of the plurality of applications with at least one of the plurality of functions executed by the application. The image forming apparatus further includes circuitry configured to: set, for each of the plurality of functions, restriction information indicating whether or not to restrict use of the function; and control, in a screen including icons each for starting a corresponding one of the plurality of applications, a display state of each of the icons of the applications based on the restriction information set by the circuitry for the function associated with the application by the first information.

An image processing apparatus includes an input unit configured to input image data, a learning unit configured to perform machine learning processing using information contained in the image data input by the input unit, an estimation unit configured to output an estimation result based on the information contained in the image data using a learning model generated by learning of the learning unit, and a determination unit configured to determine whether the image data input by the input unit contains sensitive information, wherein in a case where the determination unit determines that the image data input by the input unit contains the sensitive information, the learning unit does not perform machine learning on at least the sensitive information contained in the image data.

A printing system comprises a printing apparatus, a printing service, and an information processing apparatus. The printing service registers the printing apparatus and stores a print job received from the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus transmits, to the printing service, a print job of a logged-in user in which a printing apparatus is designated. The printing apparatus stores a user of the printing service in association with a user of the printing apparatus, fetches a print job of a user associated with a logged-in user stored in the printing service, and executes printing. A guest user of the printing service is associated with a guest user of the printing apparatus, and the printing apparatus does not execute printing for a print job of the guest user for which a password has not been set.

An information processing device is provided with a terminal screen processing portion. When the terminal screen processing portion receives from a terminal a command to register and delete a functional item of each function that the information processing device executes, the terminal screen processing portion registers and deletes a selected functional item with respect to a shortcut tab of a list page and also guides a screen of the list page of a result of registration and deletion to a display portion of the terminal. Furthermore, the terminal screen processing portion, when receiving from a terminal a command to delete a functional item to be the last with respect to the list page, creates a screen in which the list page is not displayed, and guides the screen to the display portion of the terminal.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a controller, configured to receive an input image signal captured by a camera device, perform a codec process on the input image signal to generate a processed file. The controller is further configured to perform privacy detection on the input image signal or the processed file. In response to the input image signal or the processed file being detected to include privacy information, the controller is further configured to encrypt the processed file to generate an encrypted file.

An information processing apparatus includes a hardware processor that: accepts an image input from outside as an input image; recognizes a plurality of characters in the input image and produces character information that is constituted by the characters and includes a plurality of character strings; detects, from the character information, link information representing a network address of data; and corrects one or more of the character strings other than a character string that constitutes the link information among the character strings.

Essentially coincident with the capture of an image by the imaging device, biometric information indicating the identity of the operator of the device is obtained from at least one biometric sensor. The biometric information and captured image are then stored in a manner reliably associating each with the other. At a later time, biometric information is obtained from a supposed operator of the imaging device. By comparing this candidate biometric information with the stored biometric information, the supposed operator may be authenticated as the operator of the imaging device at the time of capture of the stored image.

Example implementations relate to prohibited previews. The system may include a computing device including instructions executable to send a first image to a printing device, wherein the printing device is prohibited to display a preview of the first image and wherein the computing device is not authorized to print the first image utilizing the printing device. The instructions may be executable to send a second image to the printing device, wherein the second image includes a graphical identifier of a sender. The system may include a printing device including instructions executable to display the second image, receive an authorization to print the non-displayable first image, and print the first image.
