Patent number: 10671334Abstract: A print system includes print servers that each store a print job, a management server that manages the print servers, a printer that performs printing of the print job, a print server information storage area that stores print server information, a shared information storage area that stores information of the print job, and a shared data storage area that stores data of the print job. The print servers each include circuitry that receives a job list request from the printer, acquires the information of the print job in a first group of the each of the print servers from the shared information storage area, acquires the information of the print job in a second group different from the first group from at least one of the print servers in the second group, and provides a job list to the printer.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Minako Takigawa

Patent number: 10318218Abstract: An information processing system includes one or more information processing apparatuses to individually store a print job executable with an image forming apparatus, and a management apparatus. Each information processing apparatus includes a first memory to store the print job and first circuitry to transmit, through a network, user identification information identifying one or more users who are allowed to execute the print job. The management apparatus includes a second memory to store association information associating for each print job the user identification information transmitted from the first circuitry and apparatus identification information identifying one of the one or more information processing apparatus storing the print job, and second circuitry to refer the association information and specify apparatus identification information of at least one of the one or more information processing apparatuses, and to transmit a list of information processing apparatuses through the network.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2018Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Minako Takigawa, Kazuhiro Mukai
