Abstract: A multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the MFD includes a user interface to select a network configuration machine readable code, a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to generate the network configuration machine readable code and print the network configuration machine readable code, wherein the network configuration machine readable code is to be scanned by a target MFD to automatically configure a network connection of the target MFD via information contained in the network configuration machine readable code.

Abstract: A multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the MFD includes a communication interface to establish a communication path with a remote server, a user interface to receive a request to create an electronic file based on a scan of a document, a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of instructions. The instructions when executed by the processor cause the processor to scan the document to create the electronic file of the document, generate an encryption code associated with the electronic file of the document that is scanned, and transmit the electronic file to the remote server.

Abstract: A multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the MFD includes a communication interface to establish a communication path with an authentication server, a user interface to receive document control information for a document to be generated, a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a plurality of instructions. The instructions when executed by the processor cause the processor to generate a machine readable code that contains the document control information for the document and print the machine readable code onto the document that is printed by the MFD.

Abstract: A method for scanning a document a single time on a multi-function device (MFD) to generate a scanned image in different resolutions is disclosed. For example, the method is executed by a processor of the MFD and includes receiving the document, causing a scanner to scan the document, generating a plurality of scanned documents, wherein each one of the plurality of scanned documents have different resolutions, and outputting the plurality of scanned documents.

Abstract: A method for executing a job on a multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the method is executed by a processor and includes receiving a selection of a workflow template, receiving a selection of an action tag to add to the workflow template, scanning a document, and executing the job on the document via the workflow template that includes the action tag that was selected.

Abstract: A reusable container for electronic articles including an exterior formed of exterior surfaces; an interior formed of interior surfaces; at least one electronic interior compartment for containing an electronic article; at least one non-electronic interior compartment for containing a non-electronic article; wherein an interior surface of the at least one electronic compartment comprises an electronic protective surface; and wherein the electronic protective surface is an integral part of the container; and wherein the non-electronic interior compartment does not include an electronic protective surface. A method for using the container.

Abstract: A method for executing a saved job from a remotely located multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the method is executed by a processor and includes authenticating a user, accessing a saved job from an application server, wherein the saved job was created from a local MFD, setting a plurality of parameters on the remotely located MFD based on metadata obtained from the saved job, and executing the saved job on the remotely located MFD.
