An image processing apparatus includes: an apparatus information generator, an authenticator, and a job controller. The apparatus information generator generates apparatus information including apparatus identification information. The authenticator performs non-contact user authentication with a communication terminal by using communication without the Internet or by capturing image information. The job controller causes the communication terminal whose user has been authenticated by the authenticator to acquire the apparatus information by using communication without the Internet or by providing the apparatus information as image information. The job controller causes an apparatus corresponding to the apparatus information to execute a job on a basis of the apparatus information transmitted from the communication terminal via the Internet and setting information related to job execution.

According to aspects of the present disclosures, an image scanning apparatus receives an inquiry for assignment information and, when the assignment information designates none of multiple destination candidates, transmits the assignment information indicating the same to a mobile terminal. When receiving, from the mobile terminal, an assignment request requesting to assign a server as a destination, the image scanning apparatus checks whether the assignment information designates none of the multiple destination candidates. When it is confirmed that the assignment information designates none of the multiple destination candidates, a state of the assignment information is changed to a state of designating a server as the destination of image data.

A gain modification device (20) includes a plurality of gain modification units (31) whose number of units corresponds to a number of kinds of a plurality of signals input to the plurality of gain modification units, each one of the plurality of gain modification units (31) being configured to modify a gain value used to amplify the plurality of signals, and a plurality of gain reflection control units (44) configured to change a timing at which the gain value is to be switched by the plurality of gain modification units (31) such that the gain value of one of the plurality of signals affecting a signal level of another one of the plurality of signals is switched at a timing different from a timing at which the gain value of the another one of the plurality of signals is switched.

An image forming apparatus (100) extracts from first image data (11) second image data (12), which is image data of a document, and accepts operation for selecting either a first preview image (71) corresponding to the first image data (11) or a second preview image (72) corresponding to the second image data (12). The image forming apparatus (100) outputs, when the first preview image (71) is selected, the first image data (11) and, when the second preview image (72) is selected, the second image data (12).

A method for selectively scanning, by a scanning unit including a processor and a memory, a plurality of pages from a document includes the step of receiving, by the scanning unit associated with a Multi-Function Printer (MFP), a user input indicating a plurality of pages to be scanned from the document, the user input including one of a page range or a page skip interval. The method also includes processing, by the scanning unit, the user input for selectively scanning the plurality of pages from the document.

A document determination system includes a server device that stores identification information in association with document information, a printer that prints a document image corresponding to the document information and a code image indicating the identification information on a print medium to generate a normal printed matter, and a scanner that reads a print image printed on a printed matter including the normal printed matter and a copied printed matter obtained by copying the normal printed matter. The printer prints the code image in a preset end region of the print medium. The server device determines whether the printed matter is the normal printed matter based on the code image included in the print image read by the scanner.

An information processing apparatus sets a color mode in place of a monochrome mode on condition that the monochrome mode and multiplexing of additional information on a print target image are set as print settings based on an input image data; generates, based on the input image data, color image data corresponding to printing in a color mode which represents a color of the monochromated print target image by a value of a color signal; performs, for the color image data generated by the generation unit, processing for multiplexing the additional information on the print target image; and causes a printing apparatus to print, in the color mode, a multiplexed image on which the additional information is multiplexed.

A controller of an image processor, when detecting a portable terminal device's presence, accepts a selecting operation to select whether or not to refer to an address book held by a portable terminal device (step S32), when accepting the request for referring to the address book, establishes a near field communication with the portable terminal device (Step S34), and acquires, from the portable terminal device, the destination information in the address book (Step S35). When acquiring the destination information in the address book, the controller generates a destination list based on the destination information (Step S36), accepts a selecting operation to select a destination of the image data from the destination list (Step S37), and sends the image data to the accepted destination (Step S39).

An information processing apparatus includes a display unit, a first detection unit that detects a position of an object located in a vertical direction with respect to the display unit and that interacts with the display unit in a contactless manner, wherein detecting the position results in detecting an instruction associated with the at least one input object that is displayed on the display unit and corresponds to the position of the object, a second detection unit configured to detect confirmation of the instruction detected by the first detection unit, and an input unit configured to input data corresponding to the at least one input object in a case where the second detection unit detects confirmation of the instruction associated with the at least one input object in a state where the first detection unit detects the instruction associated with the at least one input object.

A service provision system includes an extraction unit that extracts an associated service corresponding to a user of a service provision apparatus from plural services of the service provision apparatus, a storage control unit that stores, in a storage unit, identification information for identifying a transmitter which is carried by the user and which transmits a wireless signal and information regarding the associated service while associating the identification information and the information regarding the associated service with each other, an obtaining unit that obtains the identification information included in the wireless signal transmitted without requiring the user to perform an operation, and a display control unit that receives, from the storage control unit, the associated service corresponding to the identification information obtained by the obtaining unit and that displays the associated service on a display unit of the service provision apparatus.
