Abstract: An application management method, computer-readable medium, server, and host device are provided. The application management method includes receiving policy information including a management policy for an application used by a host device from the management server, receiving an installation program for the application based on the policy information, and installing the installation program in the host device based on the policy information.

Abstract: A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor die having bond pads, each of which consists of a first bond pad made of a material whose ionization tendency is relatively low and a second bond pad made of a material whose ionization tendency is relatively high. The second bond pads function as sacrificial anodes to prevent the occurrence of galvanic corrosion at the interfaces between the first bond pads and conductive wires. In an embodiment, the upper surfaces of the second bond pads are marked instead of those of the first bond pads, which reduces the number of defects in the first bond pads. A method for fabricating the semiconductor device is also provided.

Abstract: A management apparatus to manage a device driver using a device driver package or a device driver configuration package and a method of managing the device driver of the management apparatus are provided. The management apparatus and the method are to deploy at least one of a device driver package to install a device driver using the device driver or a common device driver corresponding to at least one image forming apparatus and a device driver configuration package to modify a configuration of an installed device driver.

Abstract: A semiconductor device and method of manufacturing the same are provided. The semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor die including a bond pad, a redistribution layer, and a solder ball. The redistribution layer is formed by sequentially plating copper and nickel, sequentially plating nickel and copper, or sequentially plating copper, nickel, and copper. The redistribution layer includes a nickel layer in order to prevent a crack from occurring in a copper layer. Further, a projection is formed in an area of the redistribution layer or a dielectric layer to which the solder ball is welded and corresponds, so that an area of the redistribution layer to which the solder ball is welded increases, thereby increasing bonding power between the solder ball and the redistribution layer.

Abstract: A high speed printing method and apparatus are provided, in which provided print data is rendered and a rendered result in response to a print request of the print data is transmitted, and an image of the rendered result is formed, wherein the rendering of the provided print data is performed by a host, and the forming of the image of the rendered result is performed by an image forming device connected to the host. Accordingly, a host performs pre-rendering before a print request is input, and when the print request is input, an image forming device receives the rendered result from the host and prints the rendered result. Thus, the image forming device can perform a printing job at a high speed regardless of the amount of print data.

Abstract: A server connected to an image forming apparatus and a client, a client, and a method of remotely installing a driver of the image forming apparatus. A method of remotely installing a driver of an image forming apparatus in which a server is connected to at least one image forming apparatus and at least one client, the method including selecting at least one client where a driver of the image forming apparatus is to be installed, selecting a kind of at least one driver to be installed in the selected at least one client, receiving status information from the selected at least one client, displaying installation information of the driver on the at least one selected client according to the received status information, and selectively installing the driver in the selected at least one client according to the display installation information.

Abstract: A print control method of a host apparatus which is connected to at least one image forming apparatus in a network, the method including receiving changed IP information from the at least one image forming apparatus; determining whether the host apparatus performs a print job with respect to the image forming apparatus which has the changed IP information; holding the print job if there is the print job; changing a print option for the print job; and transmitting print data corresponding to the print job according to the changed print option. With this, the apparatus and the method may normally perform a print job by changing a port of an image forming apparatus and prevent data loss due to a failure to change the port normally even if there is a print job for an image forming apparatus whose IP address is changed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for installing a printer driver of an image forming apparatus in a printing environment using a universal printer driver, the method including: displaying one or more functions that are supported by one or more image forming apparatuses connected to the printing environment; selecting at least one function from among the displayed functions; and installing a printer driver of a connected image forming apparatus that supports the selected at least one function. Thus, even if a model name of the printer driver of the image forming apparatus to be used is not recognized, a printer driver of the image forming apparatus that supports the functions to be used can be installed.

Abstract: A user terminal apparatus, an image forming device and a network port setting method thereof. The user terminal apparatus includes a network searching unit to search an image forming device connected to the user terminal apparatus through a network, a driver searching unit to search preinstalled driver information, an information collecting unit to collect predetermined information related to the searched image forming device to create a pertinent information list, and to create an image forming device list on the basis of the searched driver information, and a port setting unit to set a network port selected on the pertinent information list to an image forming device selected on the image forming device list.

Abstract: A high speed printing method and apparatus are provided, in which provided print data is rendered and a rendered result in response to a print request of the print data is transmitted, and an image of the rendered result is formed, wherein the rendering of the provided print data is performed by a host, and the forming of the image of the rendered result is performed by an image forming device connected to the host. Accordingly, a host performs pre-rendering before a print request is input, and when the print request is input, an image forming device receives the rendered result from the host and prints the rendered result. Thus, the image forming device can perform a printing job at a high speed regardless of the amount of print data.

Abstract: A device control method and system that sets a control setting through a user interface generated by using an XML (eXtensible Markup Language) document is provided. Operation control of a device is set through a user interface that is generated using an XML (eXtensible Markup Language) document. A user interface is generated for control settings of a device based on received first information, second information corresponding to control setting values is input through the user interface, and the second information is transmitted to the device and corresponding control settings of the device are set. Accordingly, operation control of the device can be controlled through a user interface by using a single standardized document regardless of the type of device.
