Fig. 4 is the user interface of copy function, is also another example of Job Operations boundary element 103, and by this interface, user can carry out other operations except job management.
Job management unit 104 is for managing the execution of operation, comprising, unenforced operation preserved, deletes the operation of current existence, perform also unenforced operation, the execution of the operation that performing of cancellation and operation terminates, the last state of operation is monitored, and records after logged-in user this time logs in whether perform new operation.
Fig. 5 is the structure chart of user operation monitor unit 106.User operation monitor unit 106 for monitoring the operation of user, and to not having the time of user operation to carry out timing.When user operates in the user interface, or when receiving the order of other modules such as user log off unit 105, user operation monitor unit 106 will reset timer automatically.Reach the set time at timer, user operation monitor unit 106 can notify other modules such as timing arrival event described in user log off unit 105.Whole user operation monitor unit 106 is made up of three parts such as external event responsor 501, timer 502 and timing responsors 503.Wherein external event responsor 501 is for monitoring the generation of external event, and performs different operations according to different external events, and timer 502 only completes timer task, and timing responsor 503 is for the treatment of timer corresponding actions then.
Flow chart when Fig. 6 is user operation monitor unit 106 response external event.
First system judges whether external event is that user logs in (S601), if user logs in then reset timer (S605), otherwise judge whether external event is that operation starts (S602), if operation starts also to reset timer (S605), otherwise determine whether the end of job (S603), carry out operation to complete when judging except judging whether operation terminates except (S603), also to judge whether other operations printed (S604) in addition simultaneously, only when this operation has terminated and the operation not having other printing time, user operation monitor unit 106 just can reset timer (S605).
Fig. 7 is user operation monitor unit 106 timer flow chart then.
When finding that there is operation and carrying out (S701), user operation monitor unit 106 will reset timer (S703), otherwise broadcast timer then notifies (S702), and activated user is nullified unit 105 and operated accordingly by this notice.
Fig. 8 is an example of job management unit 104.Job management unit 104 receives the operation from input in Job Operations interface 103 by operation receiver 801, and the operation received is joined in wait output job queue 802, the job state reciprocity job queue 802 to be output of monitor 804 and job output queue 803 is simultaneously monitored, in real time to obtain the last state of operation in time.
Fig. 9 illustrates the state transition of job management unit 104.Whole job management has three kinds of states on the whole, respectively:
S901: initial state, User Status for do not log in and job state for not perform;
S902: User Status for have logged in and job state for not perform;
S903: User Status is for have logged in and job state is executed.
After logging in from initial condition S901 user, state is switched to S902.Under S902 state, if there is logoff operation, then job management unit 104 gets back to state S901.Under S902 state, if user performs operation by Job Operations boundary element 103, job management unit 104 receive operation output unit 110 have the message of Job execution after, change oneself state into S903.Under state S903, if there is logoff operation, then job management unit 104 becomes state S901.Under state S903, if job management unit 104 receives again the message having Job execution of operation output unit 110, then state is constant, is still S903.Under state S903, if job management unit 104 receives again the message having operation to complete of operation output unit 110, then inquire about the whether current operation not needing to continue to perform, if do not had to operation output unit 110, then think that whole task is all complete, state becomes S901; If also have the operation continuing to perform, state is constant, is still S903.Under state S903, if there is logoff operation, then job management unit 104 becomes state S901.Wherein, whenever having operation to complete, job management unit 104 can check current performing or etc. whether have the operation belonging to current login user in pending operation, if not, the event that the operation of user log off unit 105 login user all completes can be notified.
Figure 10 is the flow chart of above-mentioned user log off unit 105 response external event notice, and idiographic flow is as follows:
First S1001 determines whether that user logins successfully signal, if it is logging status (S1008) is recorded, otherwise logging status is checked (S1002), if be logging status, then carry out following follow-up judgement successively: determine whether that user manually nullifies (S1003), determine whether the then notice (S1004) of user operation monitor unit 106, if satisfied condition, perform logoff operation S1007; Otherwise enter the notice that S1005 determines whether job management unit 104, if satisfied condition, proceed to processing operation state notifying flow process.
Figure 11 is the flow chart that above-mentioned user log off unit 105 responds job state notice, and idiographic flow is as follows:
First S1101 determines whether that operation starts notice, if operation starts notice, is then executed (S1107) by status indicator; Notice is started if not operation, then determine whether operation normal termination (S1102), whether job state be executed (S1103), whether the operation of this user all completes (S1104), whether present user interface is Job Operations interface (S1105), if above-mentioned condition all meets, then perform logoff operation (S1106), as long as otherwise any one condition above-mentioned does not meet, and all will not perform logoff operation.
Like this, both made user use the interference that can not be subject in device procedures automatically nullifying, and in turn ensure that the logging status of user user after not continuing to use image output control system can not be used by other people, thus ensure that availability and confidentiality.
In addition, access customer can also be added based on the above method dispensing unit 108 is set, for arrange whether carry out automatic logoff operation, comprise timing nullify, timing nullify time and operation complete after automatic cancellation, to make this automatic cancellation method more flexible.
Above-mentioned arrange can also be divided into the system overall situation with user's independently two parts separately.
Further, can be that priority is independently set in the setting of the system overall situation and user, make the setting of the system overall situation have precedence over user and independently arrange, or user is independently arranged, and the system that has precedence over is overall to be arranged.
Image output control system in the present invention can be many people and uses simultaneously, conveniently manages and configures, and ensures the fail safe of system, is provided with the role of keeper and domestic consumer in login system.Keeper can be configured entire system, and domestic consumer does not then have this authority, only to carry out the setting relevant to self.
Figure 12 shows for system manager in user setup interface unit 107 the automatic user interface of nullifying function and arranging.
Whether check box 1201 is selected for nullifying after user is without operation certain hour, and button 1202 and button 1203 are for adjusting described automatic log out time section, and button 1202 makes this time period shorten, and button 1203 makes this time period increase; Described active log out time can have upper and lower bound, such as 1 minute to 12 minutes.After check box 1201 is selected, knob 1202 and 1203 will become effectively from disarmed state.Do not having under job state, user is not operation within the set time period, and user operation monitor unit 106 can notify this message of user log off unit, is arranged 1201 by user log off unit and judges whether to nullify according to described.Whether setting option 1210 is nullified for arranging after the All Jobs of user all completes, if arrange effectively radio box 1204 comprising the unlatching of the radio box 1024 system overall situation, 1205 systems overall situation closedowns and 1206 users to be selected, then all operation complete after automatic cancellation function open in the system overall situation, personal settings are left in the basket; If radio box 1205 is selected, then all operation complete after automatic cancellation function open in the overall situation, personal settings are left in the basket; If radio box 1206 is selected, then the personal settings of user are preferential.Button 1207 and 1208 is for determining and cancelling the done setting done about automatic cancellation function.If button 1207 is pressed, then the setting that keeper does by user setup interface unit 107 passes to user and arranges dispensing unit 108, and user arranges dispensing unit 108 and arranges preservation by described about what automatically nullify function; If button 1208 is pressed, then described setting can not be saved.
Automatically whether nullify after same domestic consumer also can complete whole operation and select.
