Patent number: 9203987Abstract: This invention has as its object to allow an authentication process that avoids unnecessary information from being stored in a digital camera irrespective of whether or not a digital camera connected to the printer has a direct print function. To this end, in this invention, in an early stage of connection between a digital camera DSC and PD printer, the PD printer side requests an object which contains a keyword as authentication information of those which are stored and held by the DSC (S29). As a result, after it is determined the returned information contains authentication information, the printer notifies the DSC of its own authentication information (S33).Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2013Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Akira Suga, Hideaki Kawamura, Satoshi Ogiwara, Takashi Aizawa

Patent number: 7719706Abstract: This invention completes an authentication procedure early when it is ready to directly communicate with a printer, and serves as a user interface device of a direct print system. To this end, when a digital camera DSC is ready to directly communicate with a printer, and receives from the printer an inquiry about objects stored and held by the camera, it assigns an object which contains a word serving as authentication information of those stored and held in the DSC to a first handler (S52), assigns other objects (image data and the like) to subsequent handlers (S53), and sends that assignment result to the printer (S54).Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2004Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Akira Suga, Hideaki Kawamura, Satoshi Ogiwara, Takashi Aizawa
