An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: transmit pre-process information to a processing apparatus that generates post-process information as a result of processing the pre-process information; and transmit identification information, used to acquire the post-process information, to an apparatus belonging to an apparatus group, satisfying a predetermined condition, among multiple apparatus groups of apparatuses that are enabled to acquire the post-process information and transfer the acquired post-process information to another apparatus.

An information processing apparatus which is capable of reducing damage caused by invalid execution data received via a public network. The information processing apparatus carries out either communications using the public network or communications without using the public network with an external apparatus. An IP address assigned to the information processing apparatus is stored. Execution data for executing a job is received from the external apparatus. When the IP address assigned to the information processing apparatus is a global IP address that is for use in the communications using the public network, a setting is made to restrict execution of the execution data.

An information processing system includes one or more information processing apparatuses to individually store a print job executable with an image forming apparatus, and a management apparatus. Each information processing apparatus includes a first memory to store the print job and first circuitry to transmit, through a network, user identification information identifying one or more users who are allowed to execute the print job. The management apparatus includes a second memory to store association information associating for each print job the user identification information transmitted from the first circuitry and apparatus identification information identifying one of the one or more information processing apparatus storing the print job, and second circuitry to refer the association information and specify apparatus identification information of at least one of the one or more information processing apparatuses, and to transmit a list of information processing apparatuses through the network.

A device to be managed by a management device, the device includes a processor that receives selection of an item of device information to be transmitted to the management device out of device information of a plurality of items on the device; and a communication IF that transmits only device information of the selected item to the management device. The device further includes a display control section that displays a service provided in accordance with the selection of the device information.

A portable apparatus includes an image capturing device, a display device, an indoor image acquisition unit, an apparatus position acquisition unit, an apparatus information acquisition unit, and a display control unit. The indoor image acquisition unit acquires an indoor image of a building having a plurality of floors. The apparatus position acquisition unit acquires a position of an electronic apparatus in real space. The apparatus information acquisition unit acquires apparatus information on the electronic apparatus. The display control unit causes the display device to display a composite image formed by combining additional information based on the apparatus information with a to-be-combined image, while linking the additional information to a position of the electronic apparatus in the to-be-combined image, this position corresponding to a relationship between the position of the electronic apparatus in real space and a position of the portable apparatus in real space.

In an information processing apparatus, in a case where a particular notification is received via a first connection with any of one or more servers using a first protocol, a second connection with any of the one or more servers is established using a second protocol and data to be processed is acquired via the second connection. In a case where a particular status change occurs in the information processing apparatus, the second connection is established even in a state in which the first connection is not established, and status information is transmitted to any of the one or more servers.

An object of the present invention is to control a Reprint function/Resend function so as not to confuse a user of an image processing device in a case where a job complete delete function is enabled. An image processing device having a reperform function to reperform an already-performed job and a delete function to delete data used in an already-performed job by overwriting the data used in the already-performed job by real data, the image processing device including a job security setting unit configured to set whether to enable the delete function, and in the case where the delete function is set to be enabled by the job security setting unit, the already-performed job is not reperformed by the reperform function.

The present disclosure relates to a an electronic device such as a digital camera 300 that includes a deletion mode whereby a camera/electronic device user can delete captured images or data files that have already been transferred in order to make room in the electronic device or digital camera memory for capturing further images. In one embodiment a digital camera keep track of which images have already been transferred to an external storage device and presents those to the user as potential images to be deleted. In another embodiment, the user is presented with a delete all transferred images which when selected deletes all the captured images that have already been transferred. In still another embodiment, a deletion criteria is used to prioritize which images are deleted first.

A processing apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a job notification transmitted from a server, a control unit configured to store reception information indicating that the job notification is received in a memory, a request unit configured to request, in a case where the reception unit receives the job notification, the server to transmit job information, and an execution unit configured to execute the job using the job information transmitted from the server, in which the request unit requests the job information from the server in a case where the determination unit determines that the reception information is stored.

An information processing device includes a retaining unit and an image display. The retaining unit retains image-formation-related information of an image forming apparatus that forms an image. The image display causes a display section of a portable terminal having the display section and an image capturing section to display an image for assisting with an operation of the image forming apparatus based on a captured image result of the image capturing section and the image-formation-related information retained in the retaining unit.
