  • Publication number: 20190205074
    Abstract: A system and methods of managing incoming fax messages at a multi-function imaging device connected to a network are disclosed. One example method includes receiving a fax message at the multi-function imaging device and identifying a workflow connected to the network based upon a content of the fax message. A type of the fax message may be identified based upon the content of the fax message and may be used to identify the workflow. A recipient of the fax message is then determined based upon the identified workflow. Upon identification of the recipient of the fax message, the imaging device adds the fax message to an imaging queue associated with the recipient in a print server communicatively connected to the imaging device.

  • Publication number: 20190208085
    Abstract: A system and methods of managing incoming fax messages at a multi-function imaging device connected to a network are disclosed. One example method includes receiving a fax message at the multi-function imaging device and identifying an intended recipient of the fax message. It is then determined if the intended recipient of the fax message is a registered user of the network. Upon a positive determination, the fax message is automatically added to an imaging queue associated with the intended recipient of the fax message.

  • Patent number: 7160491
    Abstract: An automotive vehicle frame reinforcement system has a skeleton member designed to be secured to a vehicle frame, such as a roof or pillar section. An expandable material, such as an epoxy-based reinforcing foam, is disposed on the skeleton member. Once the system is attached to the frame, the foam expands and cures during an automobile assembly operation, bonding the reinforcement system to the frame. As a result, the reinforcement system provides enhanced load distribution over the vehicle frame without adding excessive weight.

  • Patent number: 6832250
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for remotely storing usage data associated with monitored assets of an enterprise. A typical system includes a local data store for storing usage data associated with monitored assets of an enterprise. A usage data aggregation system with access to the local data store is used to aggregate data from the monitored assets and to store the aggregated data in the local data store. A local server also with access to the local data store supports the transmission of the stored usage data from the local data store to a remote server. The system will also typically utilize a remote server having access to a remote data store. The remote server is utilized to receive the usage data transmitted by the local server. After receiving the data, the remote server stores it in the remote data store.
