  • Patent number: 9661073
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods for synchronizing a personalized web browsing experience on multiple devices by logging into a web browser on each device using a pre-existing profile are provided. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request to open a first instance of a web browser, and receiving, in the first instance of the web browser, log in information for a pre-existing profile created independently of the web browser. The method also includes providing web browser personalization information for the pre-existing profile in response to the receipt of the log in information for the pre-existing profile. Systems, web browsers, and machine-readable media are also provided.

  • Patent number: 8854669
    Abstract: The embodiments provide a print server including at least one processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions executable by the at least one processor. The instructions are configured to implement an application manager configured to receive a print request over a network from an application associated with a device, and a printer searcher configured to determine printer search criteria associated with the print request, search a plurality of available printers associated with a user account of a user of the application based on the determined printer search criteria, and determine a subset of available printers based on the search. The application manager is configured to provide, over the network, a print dialog to the user of the application in response to the print request, where the print dialog may be configured to provide a list of the subset of available printers.

  • Patent number: 8788926
    Abstract: In one aspect, a method and apparatus is provided for reducing ink consumption when printing electronic documents. An electronic document is processed to identify different elements of the document, such as images, text blocks, and advertisements. Once the element identification is complete, a score is assigned to each one of the elements. The scores are then compared against a threshold T and only elements whose scores exceed the threshold T are printed. By filtering out some of the elements of the electronic document, the method and apparatus conserves ink and other printer consumables.
