Patent number: 11924684Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a sub-system that receives, from a wireless LAN module, incoming data including wireless LAN packets according to plural communication methods and a main system including a processor that process the incoming data. The sub-system includes an interface circuit and a sub-processor. The interface circuit acquires a data length of each of the wireless LAN packets from a header of the wireless LAN packet. Based on MAC addresses included in the wireless LAN packet, the interface circuit identifies a communication method of the wireless LAN packet. Based on the data length and the communication method of the wireless LAN packet, the interface circuit transfers the wireless LAN packet to one of different storage areas respectively corresponding to the communication methods. The sub-processor transfers the wireless LAN packet from the one of the different storage areas to the main system.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Satoshi Takano

Patent number: 11924389Abstract: An information processing apparatus detects a signal transmitted from an external communication apparatus and displays information of the communication apparatus corresponding to the detected signal. If a first signal is detected, a notification screen for prompting a user to perform a specification operation on the communication apparatus is displayed, and if a second signal is detected after displaying the notification screen, when the second signal corresponds to the specification operation, information of the communication apparatus corresponding to the second signal is displayed. If the first signal and the second signal are both detected, a second notification screen for prompting the user to perform a different second specification operation is displayed, and if a third signal is detected after displaying the second notification screen, when the third signal corresponds to the second specification operation, information of the communication apparatus corresponding to the third signal is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2023Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Kenichi Hirose

Patent number: 11922351Abstract: Methods and computer readable medium for queue management are disclosed. The method includes displaying a queue panel including two or more queue categories of queues. A queue is configured to include items that have at least one parameter is common. The queue panel is further configured to display activity data corresponding to queues in at least one of the two or more queue categories. The method also includes determining whether the activity data needs to be refreshed, identifying a list of queues belonging to the at least one queue category; generating a refresh request for the identified list of queues; communicating the refresh request to a remote server; receiving updated activity data from the remote server for the identified list of queues; and updating the activity data displayed in the queue panel based on the received updated activity data.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignees: ATLASSIAN PTY LTD., ATLASSIAN US, INC.Inventors: Jose Ignacio Romagnoli, Mauricio Da Cunha Wolff, Abhishek Pradhan

Patent number: 11922086Abstract: A printing system includes a printing device and a data processing server. The printing device includes a first controller. The data processing server includes a second controller. The first controller acquires a print job from an external device and transmits the print job to the server. The second controller receives the print job and stores the print job in a server memory. The first controller receives designation of the print job subject to printing and transmits a print request for printing the print job subject to printing to the server. After a fee payment approval to approve a payment for execution of the designated print job is transmitted, the second controller transmits to the printing device the print job. The first controller receives the print job and performs printing the print job on a print medium by controlling a printing member.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Shunsuke Minamikawa, Tetsuya Okuno, Haruka Azechi, Ayaka Hotta, Yushi Deura
