SERVER SYSTEM, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR PERFORMING PRINTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18609907 titled 'SERVER SYSTEM, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND CONTROL METHOD FOR PERFORMING PRINTING
The abstract describes a server system that facilitates registration processing for applications and their charging destinations on a client terminal.
- The system includes memories storing instructions and processors executing these instructions.
- It prompts users to select an application name for printing from a list of registered applications.
- The system receives the selected application name and the file to be printed from the client terminal.
- Charging processing is then performed based on the selected application's registered charging destination.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in printing services, document management systems, and billing systems for various applications.
Problems Solved: Streamlines the process of selecting applications for printing and charging them accordingly, reducing manual errors and improving efficiency.
Benefits: Enhanced user experience, accurate billing, streamlined printing processes, and improved overall system efficiency.
Commercial Applications: This technology can be utilized by printing companies, software developers, and businesses offering application services to streamline billing and printing processes.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system ensure accurate charging to the designated destinations? 2. What security measures are in place to protect the data related to application registration and charging?
Original Abstract Submitted
A server system includes one or more memories that store instructions, and one or more processors that execute the instructions to perform registration processing for registering names of a plurality of applications and charging destinations of the applications designated in a client terminal in association with each other, transmit, to the client terminal, information about a first user interface for prompting a user to select a name of an application of a file to be printed among the registered names of the plurality of applications, receive the name of the application selected on the first user interface and the file to be printed from the client terminal, and perform charging processing to a charging destination registered in association with the received name of the application based on printing of the file to be printed.
