Methods and systems provide a rapid data transfer process, as data from a shipping document, which is rendered as a copyable electronic document, is easily transferred to a receiving electronic document, such as an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) form. The data is transferred, for example, as text, e.g., a complete line item of text, photograph or other graphic, or combinations thereof.

A communication apparatus may perform: communicating a wireless setting value with a printer via a first wireless communication interface, establishing the wireless connection with the printer via a second wireless communication interface using the wireless setting value; sending first image data representing a first image of a print target to the printer via the second wireless communication interface using the wireless connection; determining, after the first image data is sent to the printer, whether an apparatus-side disconnection condition is satisfied; disconnecting the wireless connection when it is determined that the apparatus-side disconnection condition is satisfied; and sending, when it is determined that the apparatus-side disconnection condition is not satisfied, second image data representing a second image of a print target to the printer via the second wireless communication interface using the wireless connection.

A cloud server including a memory, a communication device, and a processor. The memory storing address information of a user terminal device corresponding to a subscriber. The communication device to receive fax data. The processor to, in response to receiving the fax data for the subscriber, control the communication device to notify the user terminal device a fax was received based on the address information of the user terminal device, and in response to receiving a request to output the received fax data, control the communication device to transmit the received fax data to an image forming apparatus designated by the subscriber.

A method of a terminal apparatus includes displaying, in a case where notification information is received in a state where a predetermined program is not operating in the foreground, a first notification region including a message that is based on message information included in the notification information, and not including information that is based on specific information included in the notification information, on a display unit in a state where the predetermined program is not operating in the foreground.

An information providing device is capable of communicating with an image forming device, a data managing device, and a transmission terminal. The information providing device includes a storage unit; a communication unit that transmits a forming instruction to instruct the image forming device to perform image forming, and receives, from the image forming device, storage location information indicating the data managing device that stores data obtained by image forming by the image forming device and indicating a storage location in the data managing device; and a storage location managing unit that generates, in the storage unit, management information in which identification information of the image data is associated with the storage location information. The communication unit receives the data saved in the storage location indicated by the storage location information from the data managing device and transmits the received data to the transmission terminal.

Systems and methods are provided though which a transaction, e.g., in a multi-tier, distributed application may be initiated from a portable or hand-held device, such as a smartphone. A computer system or systems, possibly remote from the device, may approve the transaction, complete it, or both, and the remote computer system or systems may cause a document to be printed, e.g., by a printer physically proximate to the device. Aspects of the invention are illustrated by embodiments in which a drug prescription may be created electronically using a hand-held device. In such an embodiment, the prescription may be transmitted to one or more remote computer systems, such as an application server, for processing. If specified, the remote computer systems may cause a prescription to be printed, e.g., at a printer near the prescriber's location. The prescriber may sign the printed prescription and give it to a patient or pharmacy.

In accordance with some implementations of the disclosed subject matter, mechanisms for presenting recommended media content items are provided. In some implementations, a method for providing media guidance is provided, the method comprising: receiving a request for supplemental content relating to a program being presented by a media device; causing a content interface to be presented on a mobile device; identifying the program that is being presented on a media device; determining keywords associated with the program, wherein each of the keywords is associated with a particular portion of the program; obtaining and storing supplemental content items corresponding to the program based on the keywords; causing the content interface to present a first supplemental content item; receiving state information associated with the mobile device that indicates a subsequent visit to the content interface; and causing the content interface to present a second supplemental content item based on the state information.

An image display system is configured such that an image display device and an image processing device are connected to each other through a network. The image display device is provided with: an instruction information generation unit for generating instruction information pertaining to image-processing to be performed on an image input signal; an image signal transmission unit for transmitting the instruction information to the image processing device; a corrected signal reception unit for receiving a corrected image input signal obtained through image-processing performed by the image processing device on the basis of the instruction information; and a display signal output unit for outputting an image output signal based on the corrected image input signal, to an object where an image is to be displayed. The image processing device receives the image input signal connected through the network and performs image-processing on the image input signal according to the instruction information.

An information processing apparatus includes plural communication units, a determination unit, and a controller. The plural communication units are configured to be capable of conducting a wireless communication. The determination unit is configured to determine a communication unit from among the plural communication units in accordance with whether a mobile communication terminal that is attempting to conduct a communication is approaching the information processing apparatus. The controller is configured to perform a control so as to start the communication using the communication unit determined by the determination unit.

In an information processing terminal, a processor receiving identification information from another program. The identification information is for identifying an image processing operation. The processor performs a first determination process determining whether the specified apparatus is capable of executing the image processing operation identified by the identification information. The processor performs a first display process displaying determination information indicating a result of the first determination process. The processor receives operation condition information from the external program in a case where the first determination process determines that the specified apparatus is capable of executing the image processing operation. The operation condition information indicates a condition for executing the image processing operation. The processor transmits a command to the specified apparatus. The command instructs execution of the image processing operation under the operation condition information.
