Publication number: 20260145438Abstract: A printing apparatus includes an internal discharge unit, an operation unit, and a reading unit capable of housing a reading device. The operation unit and the reading unit are located above the internal discharge unit and are disposed side by side in the left-right direction in front view. A medium discharge direction of the internal discharge unit is one direction of the left direction and the right direction in front view. The operation unit is located in the other direction of the left direction and the right direction with respect to the reading unit in front view. The operation unit is located outside a region of the internal discharge unit in plan view and at least a part of the reading unit is located outside the region of the internal discharge unit. The operation unit and the reading unit respectively face upward.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2025Publication date: May 28, 2026Inventors: Yoshiyuki TANAKA, Takaho NAGUMO, Mugio KAWASAKI, Yasuhiro TAGUCHI, Daisuke KANUMA

Patent number: 8749828Abstract: A facsimile apparatus includes a common setting which specifies whether a report regarding facsimile transmission is to be outputted, or not, and a specific setting which specifies whether an output of the report regarding facsimile transmission is to be permitted, or not, for each of at least one destination of the facsimile transmission. Further, the facsimile apparatus determines whether the report related to a facsimile transmission to at least one destination is to be outputted, or not, by applying the specific setting corresponding to the at least one destination in preference to the common setting. Further, if it is determined that the report related to the facsimile transmission to the at least one destination is to be outputted, the facsimile apparatus outputs the report including information related to the facsimile transmission to the at least one destination.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2012Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventor: Daisuke Kanuma

Publication number: 20070192429Abstract: A digital composite machine connectable to a server through a network, includes a scanner, a FAX communicator, a printer, an operation panel, and a controller, operable to accept a first processing request from the operation panel and to control the scanner, the FAX communicator and the printer to execute a first processing based on the first processing request, and operable to accept a second processing request from the server and to control the scanner, the FAX communicator and the printer to execute a second processing based on the second processing request. The controller decides whether or not the first processing is being executed when accepting the second processing request from the server, when the first processing is being executed, the second processing request from the server is rejected, and when the first processing is not being executed, after a lapse of a predetermined time period in which any processing is not executed, the second processing is executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2007Publication date: August 16, 2007Applicant: SEIKO EPSON CORPORATIONInventors: Daisuke KANUMA, Satoshi KOTAKA
