A system wherein a cloud server assigns a customer site as a tenant with an organization number of the customer site and notifies a customer administrator of the organization number; an MFP notifies the cloud server of the organization number entered by the customer administrator and queries the cloud server about a subdirectory name of the customer site; the cloud server notifies the MFP of the subdirectory name associated with the notified organization number; the MFP notifies the customer site accessed using the notified subdirectory name of a serial number of the MFP; and the customer site manages the notified serial number.

At the time of printing a color page image in monochrome, multi-dimensional color component values of each object included in the color page image are converted into a gray value. Then, in the processing to widen a difference between a first gray value and a second gray value, in a case where a color represented by the first color component value and a color represented by the second color component value do not belong to the same color group, the difference between the first gray value and the second gray value is made larger than that in a case where both the colors belong to the same color group.

A communication system comprising an information processing apparatus and a mobile terminal, wherein when the mobile terminal receives a packet transmitted from the information processing apparatus, it determines whether or not a login condition for transmitting a login request is satisfied based on a received signal strength of the packet, and it transmits the login request to the information processing apparatus in a case where it determines that the login condition is satisfied, and does not transmit the login request to the information processing apparatus in a case where it is determines that the login condition is not satisfied.

An image forming apparatus a display unit includes a reception unit configured to receive a user operation, a setting unit configured to set, as a default language, a language selected by a plurality of operations, a changing unit configured to change, from the default language to a language different from the default language, a language to be displayed by a single operation, and a control unit configured to perform control in such a manner that in a case where the setting unit does not change the default language and the changing unit changes the language to be displayed to the language different from the default language, the language to be displayed is changed to the default language, whereas in a case where the setting unit changes the default language to another language, the language to be displayed is not changed from the other language.

A communication device may: send a change instruction including identification information to a server, wherein the server may store the identification information and target user information corresponding to a user of a terminal device in association with each other, and the change instruction may be a signal to instruct the server to send first authentication information to the terminal device by using the target user information, after the first authentication information has been sent from the server to the terminal device, accept input of the first authentication information, in a case where the input of the first authentication information is accepted, send the first authentication information to the server, in a case where the first authentication information is sent to the server, receive a change permission notification from the server, and in a case where the change permission notification is received from the server, change the password.

An image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to perform a storage printing process that includes storing print data in a dedicated memory, which is a portable memory set as a storage destination to store the print data in the storage printing process when attached to a dedicated port among a plurality of ports, and causing a print engine to perform printing according to the print data stored in the dedicated memory in response to an operation received via a user interface, prior to the storage printing process, set one of the plurality of ports as the dedicated port, in response to a portable memory being attached to a port, determine whether the portable memory is the dedicated memory and the port is the dedicated port, and provide a notification when determining that the portable memory is not the dedicated memory but the port is the dedicated port.

An information processing system that improves the usability of the overall information processing system. The processing system, which includes an image processing apparatus and is capable of communicating with an audio control apparatus, outputs response information, as a response to the command generated based on a user's audio received through the audio control apparatus, wherein. Specifically, the processing system (a) in accordance with that a predetermined command generated based on first audio information received from an audio control apparatus associated with a first attribute information is obtained, outputs a first type of response information as a response to the predetermined command, and (b) in accordance with a predetermined command generated based on second audio information received from an audio control apparatus associated with a second attribute information is obtained, outputs a second type of response information as the response to the predetermined command.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to specify information to be incorporated into a first apparatus by referring to information incorporated into a second apparatus that differs from the first apparatus and that is disposed within a predetermined region around a location of the first apparatus.

Embodiments disclosed include systems and methods for computer automated print services control comprising authenticating a user credential input via a user device. The system and method includes generating, by a printer driver comprised in the user device, a user interface comprising features supported by a plurality of printing devices. Further, it includes receiving via the user device over the network, a print instruction comprising the features supported by the plurality of printing devices connected to the computer system over the network. And based on the print instruction, generating a print job in an embodiment. Further, based on the user authentication at one of the plurality of printing devices, converting via a gateway, the received print instruction into a format compatible with that printing device and releasing the generated print job for printing at that printing device, according to an embodiment.

A communication device, in a case where a changing request is inputted by a specific user under a situation where a memory stores a first password used by a plurality of users, send first information to each of a plurality of destinations, the changing request being for changing the first password to another password; and in a case where the first information is used in a first destination among the plurality of destinations and an instruction for changing the first password to the another password according to the changing request is provided by a first user after the first information has been sent to each of the plurality of destinations, store a second password in the memory instead of the first password.
