  • Job recovery for scan to email
    Patent number: 7423785
    Abstract: A document is scanned in a scanning device to obtain electronic data. The electronic data represents information on the document. The electronic data is stored to a storage device. An error then occurs either before or after beginning transmission of the data to an e-mail server. The error causes a failure in the communication of the data to the e-mail server. The method of failure detection depends on the type of failure. For a loss of power, the data storage device is examined for the electronic data. If electronic data is found, communication is established with the e-mail server and the electronic data is transmitted to the e-mail server. The data storage device must be a non-volatile data storage device to recover from a loss of power error. For a loss of communication with the server or failure to establish communication with the server, communication is established with the e-mail server and the electronic data is transmitted to the e-mail server.

  • System and method for authentication of a user of a multi-function peripheral
    Patent number: 6880091
    Abstract: A system and method are provided in a multi-function peripheral to authenticate a user. The system includes a processor and a memory that are coupled to a local network. The system also includes send logic store on the memory and executable by the processor. The send logic includes logic to input a password associated with a user, and logic to authenticate the password and to obtain a FROM field identifier associated with the user. The system also features logic to lock the FROM field identifier into a FROM field associated with a data transmission.
