IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18352540 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a hold scan control unit in an image processing apparatus. This unit accepts a selection of a ticket, which is stored in the apparatus and contains settings required for scan processing and transmission processing of a scanned image. If the ticket is used by a different user than the one set in the ticket, the unit acquires an access token based on the authorization of the user using the ticket and executes the scan and transmission processing using the acquired access token.

  • The patent application is for a hold scan control unit in an image processing apparatus.
  • The unit accepts a selection of a ticket, which contains settings for scan and transmission processing.
  • The ticket is stored in the apparatus and can be shared.
  • If the ticket is used by a different user, the unit acquires an access token based on the user's authorization.
  • The unit then executes the scan and transmission processing using the acquired access token.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Image processing apparatuses used in offices, businesses, or other organizations.
  • Scanning and transmitting documents or images for various purposes, such as archiving, sharing, or printing.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Streamlining the scan and transmission process by using a shared ticket with pre-set settings.
  • Allowing different users to use the same ticket and acquire access tokens based on their authorization.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Simplifies the scan and transmission process by using a shared ticket with pre-set settings.
  • Allows for efficient collaboration and sharing of scanned images among different users.
  • Enhances security by requiring user authorization for accessing the ticket and acquiring the access token.


Original Abstract Submitted

A hold scan control unit of an image processing apparatus provided with a scanner accepts a selection of a ticket that has a sharing setting to share the ticket, wherein the ticket is stored in the image processing apparatus and includes one or more settings required for scan processing executed by the scanner and for transmission processing of a file that includes an image that has been generated by the scan processing, acquires an access token based on the authorization of a user that uses the ticket in a case in which the ticket is used by a user that is different from the user that is set in the selected ticket and, executes the scan processing and the transmission processing by using the acquired access token according to a setting that is included in the ticket.
