INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS HAVING CHAT FUNCTION, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, CONTROL METHODS THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIA STORING CONTROL PROGRAMS THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18363212 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS HAVING CHAT FUNCTION, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, CONTROL METHODS THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIA STORING CONTROL PROGRAMS THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that simplifies the process of setting up a job by a proxy executor.

  • The apparatus displays a first screen for communication between a requester and the proxy executor.
  • A second screen is displayed for setting up a job for an image forming apparatus while the first screen is still visible.
  • Information about the job setting on the second screen is transmitted to an external server to create a job setting information package.
  • The proxy executor is designated on the second screen.
  • A notification is sent to the proxy executor from the external server when the job setting includes the proxy executor designation.

      1. Potential Applications
  • Streamlining job setting processes in offices or businesses.
  • Facilitating communication between requesters and proxy executors.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Reducing the time and effort required to confirm job settings.
  • Improving efficiency in delegating tasks to proxy executors.
      1. Benefits
  • Simplifies the job setting process.
  • Enhances communication between parties involved in task delegation.
  • Increases overall productivity in task management.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus that can reduce a trouble of confirming a job setting by a proxy executor. The information processing apparatus displays a first screen used for a chat between a requester and the proxy executor, displays a second screen for setting a job for an image forming apparatus in performing a first operation during display of the first screen, and transmits information indicating a setting performed on the second screen to an external server to generate a setting information package of the job set on the second screen in performing a second operation during display of the second screen. The proxy executor is set by an operation on the second screen. A notification showing that the proxy execution becomes possible is transmitted from the external server to the proxy executor when information indicating the setting on the second screen includes information indicating that the proxy executor is set.
