INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18666564 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for controlling an information processing apparatus that includes notifying the user of an error in a printing apparatus during the initial setting process.

  • The method involves executing a notification process to inform the user of an error in the printing apparatus based on error information.
  • The notification process is triggered if the error occurs while a predetermined program is running on the information processing apparatus.
  • The initial setting process is carried out when the user turns on the printing apparatus for the first time after unpacking it.
  • The notification process is not executed if the error occurs after the completion of the initial setting process.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Notification process for errors during the initial setting process of a printing apparatus.
  • Differentiation between errors occurring before and after the completion of the initial setting process.
  • Integration with a predetermined program running on the information processing apparatus.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various industries where printing apparatuses are used, such as offices, schools, and printing businesses.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the issue of efficiently notifying users of errors in printing apparatuses during the initial setting process, improving user experience and troubleshooting.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced user experience by providing timely error notifications.
  • Streamlined troubleshooting process for printing apparatuses.
  • Improved efficiency in resolving errors during the initial setup.

Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in the development of printers, copiers, and other printing devices to enhance user experience and reduce downtime due to errors.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the user experience with printing apparatuses during the initial setup process? 2. What are the potential implications of integrating this method into various information processing apparatuses?

Frequently Updated Research: There may be ongoing research in the field of user interface design and error notification systems to further enhance the effectiveness of this technology.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for controlling an information processing apparatus includes a notifying step of, if an error is occurring in a printing apparatus under non-completion of an initial setting process for the printing apparatus when a predetermined program is operating on the information processing apparatus, executing a notification process for notifying a user of the error occurring in the printing apparatus on the basis of error information, the initial setting process being a process executed in response to the user turning on the printing apparatus for a first time after the printing apparatus is unpacked, and not executing the notification process if an error is occurring in the printing apparatus under completion of the initial setting process for the printing apparatus when the predetermined program is operating on the information processing apparatus.
