An information processing device includes a linker that links respective identification information of one or more persons and an object involved in a transfer established using a network, and an updater that updates the respective identification information for a subsequent transfer transaction.

An image processing system receives an input of authentication information from a user, and authenticates the user based on the received authentication information. The image processing system further selects a folder setting method in a case where an operation key for setting a folder of the user as a destination of image data is operated, sets the folder according to the selected folder setting method in response to the operation of the operation key, and sends the image data to the set folder as the destination.

The server device stores image information uploaded by any registered user in conjunction with the identification information of the uploading user who uploaded said image information and manages the association between tagged image information that is subjected to tagging and tagged users by performing a tagging operation that associates image information uploaded to the image information storage unit by the uploading user with any registered user in response to a request from the uploading user or other registered users.

In the image processing device, method and system of the present invention, a destination identifier of an image file is stored, the destination identifier indicating one of a plurality of external stations as a destination station which receives the image file from the image processing device through a network. At least one of a sender identifier of the image file, a subject identifier of the image file and a scan condition of the image file is stored. The image file is transmitted, together with at least one of the sender identifier, the subject identifier and the scan condition, through the network to one of the external stations indicated by the stored destination identifier.

A printing system includes a printer configured to perform an issuance process of issuing a cancel notification in response to detecting a cancel trigger, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by a processor connected with a communication interface, cause the processor to cancel a generating process of generating print data and a print instruction process of transmitting print instruction information to the printer via the communication interface, in response to acquiring the cancel notification issued by the printer, during the generating process.

A printing system includes a plurality of print apparatuses each including a CPU, a storage device including a job management program, and a display. The display displays a list screen, into which a first list of instruction execution type print jobs received from another of the plurality of print apparatuses and a second list of the instruction execution type print jobs of a logged-in user among the instruction execution type print jobs spooled in the storage device are combined on the display In the other of the plurality of print apparatuses, if status change of spooling of the logged-in user's instruction execution type print job has occurred, the print apparatus is notified of the status change of spooling from the other of the plurality of print apparatuses to update the list screen displayed on the display.

An apparatus, system, and method of controlling transmission of an image, each of which: displays, on a display, an image to a plurality of users, the plurality of users sharing a use of the shared terminal; obtains, from a first privately-owned terminal owned by a first user of the plurality of users, first terminal identification information for identifying the first privately-owned terminal; transmits an authentication request for authenticating the first privately-owned terminal to a terminal management server, the authentication request including the first terminal identification information of the first privately-owned terminal; receives an authentication result of authenticating the first privately-owned terminal from the terminal management server; and when the authentication result indicates that the first privately-owned terminal is a legitimate terminal, and transmits a print request for printing data relating to the image being displayed to a printer through a network.

An information processing device that performs an authentication to authenticate a user and controls operations of an image processing device based on a result of the authentication, comprising: an application that accesses the image processing device and performs a process to enable the image processing device to operate; and an authentication server that performs the authentication to authenticate the user and sends application information relating to the application to the image processing device when successfully authenticating the user through the authentication. The application generates an access request including information relating to the application and sends the generated access request to the image processing device when accessing the image processing device in response to an instruction given by the authenticated user who is successfully authenticated through the authentication.

A system for tracking the location of an electronic device includes an electronic device and a wireless location tag. The wireless location tag includes a microcontroller unit, and a modular connector interface configured to be communicatively coupled to a port of the electronic device. The wireless location tag is configured to establish an Internet connection to one or more backend electronic devices in response to detecting that the wireless location tag has been communicatively coupled to the port of the electronic device, obtain identifying information that is associated with the electronic device, and identify tag identifying information associated with the wireless location tag. The wireless location tag is also configured to send one or more instructions to the one or more backend electronic devices via the Internet connection, and send one or more ping messages to the one or more backend electronic devices.

The disclosure describes a method of connecting multimedia content to a network resource. This method operates in a computer network environment. Operating in a network connected device, the method extracts an identifier from a media signal, such as from a digital watermark, perceptual hash, or other machine extracted signal identifier. It then sends the identifier to a network along with context information indicating device type information. From the network, the method receives related data associated with the media signal via the identifier. The related data is adapted to the network connected device based on the device type information. This device type information may include a display type, so that the related date may be formatted for rendering on the display type of the device. This device type information may also include a connection speed so that the related data may be optimized for the connection speed of the device.
