  • Patent number: 11243725
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores a program for a terminal device. The terminal device includes a storage, an operation unit, a display, and a controller. The program, when executed by the controller, causes the terminal device to perform, based on receiving an input from a user via the operation unit, sending a signal to image processing devices, including a particular image processing device, that are on the same network as the terminal device; receiving responses to the signal from the image processing devices; and based on receiving a response to the signal from the particular image processing device that is identified by device identification information stored in the storage, displaying, in the display, a device list listing device information of the particular image processing device in an emphasized manner.

  • Patent number: 9591092
    Abstract: A relaying device may comprise a network interface configured to connect with a network; a processor coupled to the network interface; and a memory configured to store tagging rule information and instructions. The tagging rule information may concern a tagging rule relating to tag information for a service server capable of storing at least one tag information in association with stored contents data. The relaying may receive designated tag information designated by an image processing device. The relaying device may determine whether the received designated tag information conforms to the tagging rule. Only when it is determined that the received designated tag information does not conform to the tagging rule, the relaying may convert the received designated tag information into converted tag information. The converted tag information may conform to the tagging rule. The relaying may transmit, via the network interface, the converted tag information to the service server.

  • Patent number: 9575695
    Abstract: An image recording apparatus including a controller for determining whether a recording operation is a first or a second recording operation and for determining whether an error that suspends the recording operation is occurring, wherein when the recording operation is the first recording operation and the error is occurring, the occurrence of the error is kept notified until the error is fixed, wherein when the recording operation is the second recording operation and the error is occurring, the occurrence of the error is kept notified for a predetermined time, wherein the recording operation, the performance of which was suspended by the occurrence of the error, is cancelled after the occurrence of the error has been kept notified for the predetermined time, and wherein the suspended recording operation is performed on condition that the error is fixed in a time period during which the occurrence of the error is kept notified.

  • Patent number: 9507796
    Abstract: The information processing device may determine a file type of a send file which is a file to be sent to the storage device and to be stored in the storage device. The information processing device may acquire a plurality of stored tag information from the storage device. The stored tag information may be tag information associated with a stored file which is a file stored in the storage device. The information processing device may cause a display unit to display one or more stored tag information among the acquired plurality of stored tag information. The information processing device may store, in association with the send file, at least one selected tag information into the storage device. The information processing device may cause the display unit to display a first group of stored tag information in preference to a second group of stored tag information.

  • Patent number: 9207886
    Abstract: A relaying device is configured to obtain first data received from one of an image processing apparatus and a server apparatus via a communication unit, convert the first data having a first format to second data having a second format, transmit the second data to the other of the image processing apparatus and the server apparatus. When the transmission process is abnormally terminated, process identification information is transmitted to the image processing apparatus, and the process identification information and the second data are stored in associated manner, and a re-start instruction including the process identification information identifying the transmission process to be re-started is received from the image processing apparatus. When the transmission process is abnormally terminated and the re-start instruction is received, second data associated with the process identification information is obtained, which is transmitted to the other of the image processing apparatus and the server apparatus.
