  • Patent number: 11818312
    Abstract: A duplex scan indicative scanner includes a sheet passage, a transporting mechanism, one single scanning module, a duplex indicator and a connection interface. The transporting mechanism transports a document past the sheet passage. The scanning module scans a first side of the document passing through the sheet passage. The connection interface is electrically connected to an electronic device, the duplex indicator, the transporting mechanism and the scanning module. After the electronic device has controlled, through the connection interface, the scanning module to scan the first side, the electronic device controls, through the connection interface, the duplex indicator to output a duplex indication message to guide a user to place the document or a second document, so that a second side of the document or the second document is scanned by the scanning module. A duplex scan indicative scanning apparatus and a duplex scan indicative scanning method are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20220084030
    Abstract: A secure and convenient document payment processing device and system are provided. A user's document payment processing device is connected to a remote end and a document processing device via a network. A document to be printed out is uploaded to the remote end with a link program provided by a trusted proxy app installed on the document payment processing device. A mobile payment program is executed according to a fee information provided by the remote end. Upon completion of payment, the document payment processing device sends a document output command to the remote end, enabling the remote end to send the document to be printed out to the document processing device for output. Use of secure apps protects personal information. Operation procedures are streamlined to enhance operation efficiency. Fee collection is improved to enhance payment management efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10715698
    Abstract: A system and a method for processing documents using mobile payment to instantly activate privilege are provided with a mobile device, a cloud server, a proxy server and a document-processing device connected to a network. Users can hold the mobile device to approach the document-processing device to perform corresponding operation in generation of a setting of parameters. The cloud server acquires the setting of parameters through the network and transmits the setting of parameters to the proxy server in exchange for dedicated pictogram authentication information. The document-processing device provides pictogram information according to the pictogram authentication information. The mobile device performs and completes a payment procedure according to the pictogram information. The cloud server then instantly transmits an execution command to drive the document-processing device so as to enhance operational convenience and efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10299297
    Abstract: A network connection method is used for allowing a portable electronic device to connect to a node in a mesh network environment. The method includes the steps of: searching a plurality of nodes; determining whether there is a specific node in the plural of nodes; if yes, setting the specific node as a bridging point; if not, setting a node with the strongest signal strength in the plurality of nodes as the bridge point; and broadcasting to the other nodes via the bridge point under the mesh network environment.
