Snapping an image and notifying a user to pick-up a printed document
Abstract:
Method(s) and apparatus(es) relate to notification to pick-up a printed document (“document”). In a method, stored in a cloud computing system are: at least one operation image of the document; operation metadata associated with scanning or printing; and a user identity. A snap-notify function readies a camera to store a photo image and associated metadata. The photo image and metadata, uploaded from the mobile device to the cloud computing system, is compared by a backend application. The photo metadata is compared with data entries to obtain a match to the operation metadata. The photo image stored in relation to the photo metadata matching the operation metadata is retrieved. The photo image is compared to the operation image, and, for a match thereof to at least a threshold percentage, the cloud computing system instructs the multifunction printer to send a confidential notification for the user identity to pick up the document.
