Abstract: A printing terminal 208P creates delivery result information regarding delivered content data and transmits the created delivery result information to a posting server 202. The posting server 202 receives the transmitted delivery result information, adds the received delivery result information to delivery record information stored in a memory, and notifies a sending terminal of at least part of the delivery record information. This arrangement enables low-cost and high-quality delivery of print contents.

Abstract: Facsimile systems, devices, and methods are provided related to transmitting an image from a sending device to a receiving device via a network. One embodiment includes a status information reply unit which replies to a notification request of status information from a sending device by transmitting status information representing status of the receiving-device to the sending device via a network, in which the status information reply unit includes a transmission source classifying portion which determines a class of the sending device and a selected-status information transmitting portion which transmits the status information to the sending device via the network.

Abstract: A printing terminal which is connectable to a distributing server via a communication line includes a limited number of times data receiving section which receives from the distributing server limited number of times data indicating a limit on the number of printing times of content data to be printed, an accepting section which accepts a user's operation to order printing of the content data, a content data receiving section which receives the content data, a printing section which carries out the printing of the content data upon the accepting section accepting the operation to order the printing, and a printing controller which prevents the content data from being printed by the printing terminal upon the number of printing times of the content data on the printing terminal reaching the limit on the number of printing times indicated by the limited number of times data after the printing is carried out.

Abstract: A printing apparatus creates and prints an order sheet on which a list of image data is placed. By filling in marking fields on the order sheet a user can select image data for transmission. Once the order sheet has been scanned by the scanner, the printing apparatus creates an e-mail having attached to it the image data selected by the user, and sends this to a computer or the like via a mail server. It is possible in this way to easily select image data for transmission through a prescribed communications network.

Abstract: A technology to facilitate realization of facsimile transmission of an image over a network is provided. A facsimile device includes an image data storage unit to store received image and an output device connection unit that connects the facsimile device to an image output device. The output device connection unit can switch the logical connection to the image output device between a connected state and a disconnected state. File management of the image data storage unit is performed by the image output device during the logical connection is in the connected state. The facsimile device receives the image data in the disconnected state, switches the logical connection to the connected state after the reception of the image data, transfers the image data stored in the image data storage unit to the image output device, and switches the logical connection to the disconnected state after the image data is transferred.

Abstract: When a remote start of an engine using a predetermined transmitter is performed, a security regarding theft of a vehicle can be prevented form being significantly deteriorated. The vehicle has a remote engine starter for remotely start an engine and a vehicle antitheft device for activating an alarm when there is a possibility of occurrence of vehicle theft. The remote engine starter and the vehicle antitheft device are connected to each other through a communication line. In a case where an engine start signal is supplied from the transmitter, the remote engine starter is caused to supply a start signal to the vehicle antitheft device through the communication line before causing a contact point closing signal to be supplied to an ignition relay.

Abstract: A transmitting and receiving method of transmitting and receiving data between a transmitting apparatus and a receiving apparatus through a network that exchanges data using a packet includes: causing at least one of the transmitting apparatus and the receiving apparatus to secure a storage region corresponding to the data as a data region; and causing at least one of the transmitting apparatus and the receiving apparatus to store divided data, which is obtained by dividing the data in a size equal to or smaller than the size of the packet, in the data region to thereby perform the transmission and reception while managing the location of the divided data.

Abstract: A printer terminal that is connected to a delivery system includes a posting server that delivers contents data for printing a content to the printer terminal through the network; and a relay server that relays setup of a session between the posting server and the printer terminal based on a delivery request from the posting server through the network by using a signaling protocol; through the network.

Abstract: When a printable term is set for content data, a posting server 202 determines whether a current time is within or after the printable term, refers to a result of the determination, and allows delivery of the content data within the printable term, while prohibiting delivery of the content data after the printable term. This arrangement enables low-cost and high-quality delivery of print contents.

Abstract: Prior to delivery of content data, SIP servers 104 and 106 mediate establishment of sessions between a posting server 102 and printing terminals 108P and 110P via a network 14 according to a signaling protocol SIP. On establishment of the sessions, the posting server 102 delivers the content data to the printing terminals 108P and 110P according to a data transfer protocol HTTP. This arrangement enables low-cost and high-quality delivery of print contents.

Abstract: A posting server 202 receives printer status information from an SIP server 204 prior to delivery of content data to a printing terminal 208P and delivers the content data to the printing terminal 208P when the received printer status information shows that the printing terminal 208P is in a printable state. This arrangement enables low-cost and high-quality delivery of print contents.

Abstract: A printing terminal 208P creates delivery result information regarding delivered content data and transmits the created delivery result information to a posting server 202. The posting server 202 receives the transmitted delivery result information, adds the received delivery result information to delivery record information stored in a memory, and notifies a sending terminal of at least part of the delivery record information.

Abstract: A control system for improving the security level of a security device. A portable device is provided with a communication function and has a portable device ID code. A security controller includes a memory for recording a controller ID code. The security controller communicates with the portable device to determine whether the portable device ID code matches the controller ID code, and controls deactivation of security functions for a door lock driver and an engine controller based on the determination result. In response to a restriction request signal, the management apparatus transmits a function restriction signal to the security controller. The security controller prohibits or restricts control of the door lock driver or the engine controller when receiving the function restriction signal and communicating with the portable device.
