Publication number: 20220035583Abstract: 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 receives requests from the printing device to process a print job of a document in the private domain. The private server processes the requests using the policy and a ledger to determine whether to allow the print job to the printing device. If a parameter of the policy is exceeded, then the private server allows an overage for the parameter so that the document is accessed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2021Publication date: February 3, 2022Applicant: KYOCERA DOCUMENT SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: Tai Yu CHEN, Jin LIANG, Michael Ong MARTIN

Patent number: 11239807Abstract: An offset compensated differential amplifier employing a multi-tan h circuit comprising differential pairs coupled in parallel to compensate for an offset voltage of the output voltage in the offset compensation calibration mode is disclosed. The differential pairs each include a compensation transistor coupled to the positive internal node and a reference transistor coupled to the negative internal node. Each compensation transistor receives the compensation control voltage and each reference transistor receives a different reference voltage. The multi-tan h circuit generates an offset compensation voltage on the positive and negative internal nodes based on a difference between the compensation control voltage and the different reference voltages. The multi-tan h circuit comprises a larger linear range than a hyperbolic tangent current transfer function of a single differential pair.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2020Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Burt L. Price, Jin Liang

Patent number: 11237788Abstract: An authentication system uses authentication tokens to allow access by third party applications to a printing device. A mobile device includes a mobile application that scans a graphical code to obtain identification information for the printing device. The mobile application requests that the third party application generate an authentication token. The mobile application stores the authentication token for the third party application and the identification information at a document processing platform, which is separate from the printing device or application. The printing device provides its identification information to the document processing platform to receive the authentication token. The printing device provides the authentication token to the third party application to establish a connection to process print jobs through the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2021Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: KYOCERA DOCUMENT SOLUTIONS INC.Inventors: Arthur Alacar, Jin Liang

Patent number: 11228694Abstract: A printing device is implemented to activate a hidden function by inputting tap sequences on a tap screen. The hidden function includes displaying an icon of a title of a secret document on a display screen without showing the content of the secret document. A method for activating the hidden function using tap sequences is also disclosed. The method compares the input tap sequences with a plurality sets of predetermined codes, each of which corresponds to a hidden function. When the input tap sequences match one set of predetermined codes, the method activates and executes the hidden function. By executing the hidden function, the secret document is printed. The tap sequences are tapping actions that do not generate tangible symbols that are reviewable on the tap screen. By doing so, the confidential document is further protected.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: Kyocera Document Solutions Inc.Inventors: Matthew Trinh, Justine Lo, Jin Liang, Tai Yu Chen, Michael Ong Martin

Patent number: 11210039Abstract: 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: October 26, 2020Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: Kyocera Document Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Daisaku Nagano, Hiroyuki Takaishi, Tai Yu Chen, Jin Liang, Michael Ong Martin
