TECHNIQUE FOR DIAGNOSING COMPONENT USED IN IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18446675 titled 'TECHNIQUE FOR DIAGNOSING COMPONENT USED IN IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image forming system that includes server computers, an image forming apparatus, and a client computer. The system obtains state information of the image forming apparatus, analyzes it, determines countermeasure content based on the analysis, and sends the content to either the image forming apparatus or the client computer for application.

  • The system includes server computers, an image forming apparatus, and a client computer.
  • State information of the image forming apparatus is obtained and analyzed.
  • Countermeasure content is determined based on the analysis results.
  • The content is sent to either the image forming apparatus or the client computer for application.

Original Abstract Submitted

An image forming system includes one or more server computers, an image forming apparatus, and a client computer. The one or more server computers obtain state information indicating an operating state of the image forming apparatus, execute a first analysis on the state information, and determine countermeasure content to be applied to the image forming apparatus based on at least an analysis result of the first analysis, and determine the image forming apparatus or the client computer as a notification destination of the countermeasure content. The image forming apparatus or the client computer determined as the notification destination receives the countermeasure content; and applies the countermeasure content.
