Patent number: 11650773Abstract: Embodiments facilitate the management of security certificates for third-party services being used to print documents from kiosks in public locales. The system establishes a gateway connection between a cloud-based host server, the third-party service, and the kiosk. When a user wishes to use the third-party service to print a document requested through the kiosk, the host server obtains the security certificate and installs the certificate in the kiosk. The kiosk may then request the document from the third-party service which forwards the document upon authentication of the security certificate details registered in the kiosk.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Inventors: Daisaku Nagano, Hooman Majidzadeh Rezvani

Patent number: 11544024Abstract: A policy-based system is implemented to allow access to a private domain to print using a public domain. The private domain includes private servers that store documents. The public domain includes servers and a printing device. A public policy server uses a domain list and a protocol connection with a private authentication server to validate a user and identify which private domain to access. The public policy server receives requests from the printing device to process a print job of a document in the private domain. The policy-based system also determines whether printing operations may occur in a public printing service. A public print server determines whether to allow printing for a user in an organization.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2022Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: Kyocera Document Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Daisaku Nagano, Hiroyuki Takaishi, Jin Liang, Tai Yu Chen, Michael Ong Martin

Patent number: 11481163Abstract: A policy-based printing system is implemented to allow access to a private domain to print using a public domain. The private domain includes private servers that store documents. The public domain includes servers and a printing device. A public policy server uses a domain list and a protocol connection with a private authentication server to validate a user and identify which private domain to access. The public policy server retrieves a policy from a private policy server that configures the parameters for printing using the public domain. The print job data is provided to a public file server until the public policy server confirms that the print job can be sent to the printing device. The status of the document is set after the identification of potential confidential information so that it may not be printed in the public domain.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Kyocera Document Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Daisaku Nagano, Hiroyuki Takaishi, Tai Yu Chen, Jin Liang, Michael Ong Martin

Patent number: 11159513Abstract: Embodiments facilitate the management of security certificates for printers that are used in public locales. The system communicates with and manages the printers with the benefits of security certificate protocols on-demand as a user requests to print documents with any particular printer. Once a document is requested to be printed at a printer, the system registers the printer with the network. At registration, a gateway is automatically installed. the gateway requests a security certificate which is stored on the printer or its associated computer. Aspects thus solve an online service's need to install and manage certificates for any printer accessible to the network.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Inventors: Daisaku Nagano, Hooman Majidzadeh Rezvani
