An information processing apparatus capable of managing an object to which a print queue for instructing execution of processing on an image processing apparatus is allocated is configured to determine whether an image processing apparatus corresponding to a print queue allocated to an object managed by another information processing apparatus is identical with an image processing apparatus corresponding to a print queue registered in the information processing apparatus, and, in a case where it is determined that the image processing apparatuses are identical with each other, to make a setting for allocating the print queue registered in the information processing apparatus to an object to be displayed on the information processing apparatus.

Examples disclosed herein relate to a protected electronic communication method comprising assigning a protected electronic communication to a data element, wherein the protected electronic communication comprises a plurality of identifier segments, receiving a request for the data element to be included in an analytics report, determining, according to the protected electronic communication, whether the data element is permitted to be included in the analytics report, and in response to determining that the data element is permitted to be included in the analytics report, providing the data element for use in the analytics report.

An image forming apparatus includes a storage device and a control device. The storage device stores a document. The control device includes a processor and functions, through the processor executing a control program, as a character recognizer and a tag generator. The character recognizer analyzes the document stored in the storage device and recognizes characters contained in the document. The tag generator analyzes, based on a recognition result of the character recognizer, a sequence of characters contained in the document and generates a tag expressing a feature of descriptive content of the document.

A nail polish application system may include a nail polish applicator to apply a curable nail polish to a nail of a user. An energy source may emit energy to selectively cure the curable nail polish. A sensor may be provided to detect a boundary of the nail of the user. The energy source may be configured to direct the energy to (i) the detected boundary of the nail during a first curing stage or (ii) to an area within the detected boundary of the nail during the first curing stage, and to (iii) avoid directing the energy to an area outside the detected boundary of the nail during the first curing stage.

An image processing apparatus connected to an external user terminal includes a scanner unit that optically reads an original to acquire a scanned image, an information acquisition unit that acquires user information, an image storing unit that stores the scanned image in association with the user information, a type acquisition unit that acquires an image conversion type, which indicates a desired converted image type, from the external user terminal, and an image conversion unit that, in response to acquiring the image conversion type, reads out a scanned image from the image storing unit based on the user information and converts the read-out scanned image into an image of the acquired image conversion type.

An information processing apparatus capable of managing an object to which a print queue for instructing execution of processing on an image processing apparatus is allocated is configured to determine whether an image processing apparatus corresponding to a print queue allocated to an object managed by another information processing apparatus is identical with an image processing apparatus corresponding to a print queue registered in the information processing apparatus, and, in a case where it is determined that the image processing apparatuses are identical with each other, to make a setting for allocating the print queue registered in the information processing apparatus to an object to be displayed on the information processing apparatus.

A drawing unit configured to draw a print target content is instructed to draw a content and a predetermined element. Based on a notification from the drawing unit, which corresponds to the drawing instruction and has been made regardless of completion of drawing to the instruction, drawn data is acquired from the drawing unit. If the acquired data includes the predetermined element, a print apparatus is caused to execute printing based on the acquired data. If the acquired data includes no predetermined element, data is acquired from the drawing unit again without causing the print apparatus to execute printing based on the acquired data.

An image forming apparatus includes an image generating unit for generating a job image, a color verification image generating unit, a color converting unit for performing the same color conversion on the job image and the color verification image, a printing unit for printing the job image and the color verification image subjected to the color conversion, a colorimetry device for measuring the colors of a printout of the color verification image, a storage unit, a storing control unit for storing the job image in the storage unit in association with the color verification image and colorimetrical values thereof, and a reprinting control unit, wherein the printing unit performs a test print of the stored color verification image before reprinting, and the reprinting control unit compares colorimetrical values obtained during the test print with stored past colorimetrical values and outputs color differences.

A image processing system which make it possible to reduce user time and effort in checking OCR error image data. The image processing system performs OCR processing on image data generated by an image forming apparatus in response to selection of an object by a user and stores the image data in a folder having a folder name formed by using a character string obtained by the OCR processing. The system includes a storage control unit configured to store the image data, in a case where the character string obtained by performing the OCR processing on the generated image data does not satisfy a predetermined condition, in a folder associated with the object.

An input control script embedded in a web page is received by a client terminal that accesses, using a web browser, a web application server on which a web application operates, and that controls an input device. The input control script comprises an acquisition request transmission unit that sends an acquisition request to the input device when a specific operation is performed on the web page from the web application server; an acquisition unit that acquires input information from the input device as a response to the acquisition request; and a drawing process unit that draws the input information acquired by the acquisition unit in a specific drawing area.
