Methods and system are described for fax transmission distribution. In one embodiment, the electronic message receives, over a circuit-switched network, an incoming call signal that identifies a fax telephone number as an outbound address, where the fax telephone number is uniquely and permanently associated to a user. The device receives an incoming fax transmission associated with the incoming call signal, where the incoming fax transmission includes a fax message in a fax suitable format, where the fax message is associated with the user. The device transmits, over a computer network, an electronic message that includes the fax message and the fax telephone number to a destination address based on the fax telephone number.

Systems and methods for a radio communications device supporting LTE cellular communications. A device includes a data interface configured to exchange modem control commands and audio data with an LTE cellular modem and a telephone interface configured to provide a two-wire analog telephone interface for connection to a telephone device. A controller control signals provided via the telephone interface to manage voice call operations with the telephone device; exchange digital voice data corresponding to voice signals exchanged with the telephone device via the telephone interface; exchange control information via the data interface to establish and manage a voice over LTE cellular call; and exchange the digital voice data via the voice over LTE cellular call via the LTE cellular modem.

A printing apparatus is provided such that when a print processing apparatus is connected to the printing apparatus, use of Wi-Fi Direct is prohibited. On the other hand, in the printing apparatus, when the print processing apparatus is not connected to the printing apparatus, the use of Wi-Fi Direct is permitted.

A sheet conveying apparatus includes a pair of regulating units both of which are movable in a width direction in a document placement unit, a detection processing unit that detects a separation distance between the pair of regulating units, a restriction processing unit that restricts execution of a specific process of conveying a document when a difference between the separation distance detected at a specific timing and a reference distance exceeds a threshold value, and a cancellation processing unit that cancels the restriction on execution of the specific process when the separation distance detected after the restriction on execution of the specific process by the restriction processing unit is the same as the separation distance detected before the detection timing of the separation distance and on or after the specific timing.

A method performed by at least one computer processor of a message delivery system includes generating a mapping among registry identifiers, destination identifiers, and preferred transmission methods of a plurality of users. Each user's destination identifier is associated with at least one delivery address for receipt of electronic package transmissions by the respective user. An outbound delivery request is received and includes a specified destination identifier for delivery of an electronic package. If the specified destination identifier is included in the mapping table, the mapping table is used to identify, based on the specified destination identifier, a preferred transmission method for transmitting the electronic package. The electronic package is transmitted using the preferred transmission method.

A management system includes a plurality of network devices, a client communicating with the plurality of network devices, and a manager managing the client. The manager includes a management unit managing a destination list set including a plurality of destination lists including one or more destinations and a generation unit generating a task in which the destination list set and the network device to be distributed are set. The client includes a first determination unit that determines whether the network device to be distributed is able to manage the plurality of destination lists of the destination list set, based on the task generated by the manager and a second determination unit that determines whether the number of destinations included in the plurality of destination lists of the destination list set is within the number of destinations manageable by the network device to be distributed.
