Patent number: 8982391Abstract: In a system where a print device is connected to a computing device but not to an external web service that relates to the print device, the computing device implements a print driver session that retrieves print device operational data, identifies the web service, and generates a barcode that encodes the device operational data as a data string with a web address for a web service. A user may use a mobile electronic device to receive an image of the generated barcode, decode the barcode to detect the web address and the device operational data, and send a web service request comprising the device operational data to a web service associated with the web address. When the mobile electronic device receives a response that is responsive to the web service request, it may present the response to a user via a display of the mobile electronic device.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2013Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Robert William Burke, Jr., Stephen M. Roberts, Daniel L. McCue, III

Patent number: 5631740Abstract: An electronic image processing apparatus has a controller and a plurality of resources in an arbitrary configuration. Each of the resources includes an associated processor storing data related to operational constraints of the associated resource and a bus interconnects the processors to the controller for directing the operation of the resources. The controller is adapted to operate independent of a particular configuration of the plurality of resources by receiving from each of the processors the data related to the operational constraints of each associated resource and interrogating each of the processors to determine the geometrical relationship of the interconnection of the resources.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 1995Date of Patent: May 20, 1997Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Marc W. Webster, Vijay A. Saraswat, John C. Austin, Daniel L. McCue, III, Markus P. J. Fromherz

Patent number: 5617215Abstract: An electronic image processing apparatus includes a controller and a plurality of resources in an arbitrary configuration. Each of the resources provides an associated processor storing data related to operational capabilities of the associated resource. The controller is adapted to dynamically configure the image processing apparatus to operate in accordance with the the operational capabilities of each of the processors by defining job requirements as a combination of images defining a set of sheets and specifying compilations of sheets. The job requirement is converted into an assembly tree relationship for merging into additional assembly trees for formulating the job requirement.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 1995Date of Patent: April 1, 1997Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Marc W. Webster, Daniel L. McCue, III, Paul A. Rulli, John O. Walker, William K. Stumbo

Patent number: 5339435Abstract: A heterogeneous configuration management tool enables building of a software system in a heterogeneous network of computers. In building a desired software system, the tool enables at least one component of the system to be translated by a foreign computer of the network and other components of the system to be translated by other computers of the network. A reference to a version indicator is passed to the foreign computer to provide the foreign computer an indication of user-specified version of the component being translated by the foreign computer. The reference is expanded during processing on the foreign computer. Pathname transformation files are employed to provide transformation of a pathname in one computer of the network to a corresponding pathname in another computer of a network. Binaries resulting from component translations are stored in split pools. In turn, split releases of the built software system are enabled.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 1993Date of Patent: August 16, 1994Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: David C. Lubkin, Douglas B. Robinson, Robert P. Chase, Jr., Paul J. Leach, Daniel L. McCue, III, David B. Leblang
