Abstract:
A method of optimizing bandwidth of a wireless link between a display device and an image data player. The display device is configured with one or more features that affect its bandwidth capacity. This configuration results in one or more “bandwidth reduction parameters”. The display device is programmed to communicate these parameters to the player via the wireless link, so that the player can deliver device-specific image data to the display device.
Abstract:
Methods of printing an image and photo-printing systems using the methods are provided. The methods involve receiving the image from a data storage device and printing the image via a printer, the method including the operations of determining whether a Paper Full printing option in which no space is left on a printing material is selected; when the Paper Full printing option is selected, comparing a ratio of an image to be printed with a ratio of a currently set printing material; and when the ratios of the image and the printing material are different from each other, displaying a print area of the image to be printed on a display panel.The methods of printing the image and photo-printing systems using the methods provide users with an opportunity to check and re-set a print area prior to printing the image, thereby preventing an important part of the image from being cropped due to mismatch between ratios of the image to be printed and the printing material.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for storing an image in a storage folder corresponding to a file name in a mobile terminal are provided. The method includes detecting a keyword by analyzing a file name of data to be stored, and storing the data in a storage folder corresponding to the keyword.
Abstract:
A data processing apparatus capable of using, without change, a password used at the time of backup as a password at the time of restoration to thereby realize backup and restoration which are high in security and user-friendliness. Upon being backed up into an external storage medium, data stored in a box in the data processing apparatus and protected by password information is encrypted with an encryption key generated based on the password information and is stored into the external storage medium. Upon restoration of the encrypted data from the external storage medium to a multifunction peripheral, password information input by a user is set as a new password, and the data decrypted with a decryption key generated based on the password information is protected with the new password.
Abstract:
When a user (4201) requests display of a list of documents in a box, an embedded RSS reader (4210) receives the information. The RSS reader (4210) establishes communication with an HTTP server (212), and transmits an RSS feed acquisition request. The HTTP server (212) sends back an update information feed file stored in an image processing apparatus to the RSS reader (4210) as a response to the HTTP request. The RSS reader (4210) analyzes the acquired feed file, formats an entry which has not been read by the user (4202), and displays the entry on the operation unit of the image processing apparatus. If the user selects the anchor of a link contained in the entry displayed by the RSS reader (4210), the RSS reader (4210) causes an embedded Web browser (211) to format and display a resource specified by a URI.
Abstract:
Determination is made whether acceptance of a job on a USB memory is permitted or not. When in a USB memory job acceptance permitted state, a USB memory job selection display process is executed. When in a USB memory job acceptance prohibited state, a USB memory plural load prohibition display process is executed. When in a USB memory job acceptance prohibited state, the relevant display screen is continuously provided. Therefore, the user is provided with the relevant display screen to be prompted confirmation of the loading of a USB memory
Abstract:
A digital image storage system includes a digital camera having a memory storing digital images, a docking station on which the digital camera can be placed for transmitting one or more of the digital images from the memory of the digital camera, and a data storage separate from the docking station and having a storage medium that stores digital images transmitted from the memory of the digital camera through the docking station. A controller communicates with the data storage and the digital camera while the digital camera is placed on the docking station, and causes digital images stored in the memory of the digital camera to be deleted from the memory after being successfully transmitted from the memory and stored in the storage medium of the data storage. The controller does not delete from the memory digital images protected against deletion.
Abstract:
A print control apparatus which makes a search of print data easy includes a storage unit, a display unit, and a control unit that adds attribute information to the print data. The print control apparatus; generates an attributed print job, writes it into the storage unit, arranges and displays, based on an operation by a user, each job name of the attributed print data stored in the storage unit in an order according to the attribute information included in the attributed print data.
Abstract:
A hand-held battery powered device for transferring data between one or more flash memory modules and a mass storage device. The device includes one or more slots to accept a flash memory module into a housing which includes fixed or removable mass storage device and logic circuitry disposed within the housing for transferring data between the flash memory module and mass storage device. Ports are disclosed for transferring data from the resident mass storage device to the user's computer.
Abstract:
A system and method for classifying photographs using a TV and a remote control, and then subsequently searching for previously classified photos. A multi-level GUI that includes a “who” GUI operable to classify a photograph according to a proper name of a person appearing in the photograph and a “what” GUI operable to classify a photograph according to a name or genre of a subject associated with the photograph are provided. A user of the remote control navigates through levels of the GUI to classify photographs provided to the TV without having to manually type in text using alphabet keys.
