The communication between memory devices 109 and printer controller 116 is authenticated using session key.For life Into session key, printer controller 116 transmits the request to session key identifier to memory devices 109.In response to right The request of session key identifier, the logic circuit 111 of memory devices 109 are based on being stored in nonvolatile memory 110 Privacy key generation session key identifier and associated session key.In one embodiment, memory devices 109 are patrolled Circuit 111 is collected in response to each request to session key identifier, generates different session key identifiers and associated meeting Talk about key.Therefore, each session key identifier and each associated session key are only only used once.Logic circuit 111 will The session key identifier generated is supplied to printer controller 116, and session key identifier is delivered to memory by it again Equipment 122, as described above.
Fig. 2 is the side that diagram is used to be authenticated the communication between replaceable printer unit 108 and print system 104 The flow chart of one embodiment of method 150.At 152, replaceable printer unit 108 is installed in including printer controller In 116 print system 104.Replaceable printer unit 108 includes memory devices 109, the memory devices 109 by with It is set to the one or more privacy keys being authenticated for pair communication with print system 104.Print system 104 is also wrapped Memory devices 122 are included, which has been configured with for pair logical with replaceable printer unit 108 One or more privacy keys that letter is authenticated.
At 154, printer controller 116 passes through 114 and 112 depositing to replaceable printer unit 108 of communication link 109 queued session key identifier of storage device.At 156, in response to receiving the request to session key identifier, storage The logic circuit 111 of device equipment 109 is requested based on the first privacy key generation being stored in nonvolatile memory 110 Session key identifier and its associated session key.At 158, the logic circuits 111 of memory devices 109 is to printer control Device 116 processed provides requested session key identifier.
At 160, session key that printer controller 116 will be received by communication link 120 from memory devices 109 Identifier is supplied to memory devices 122 and queued session key.At 162, in response to receiving session key identifier With the request to session key, the logic circuit 124 of memory devices 122 is based on the session key identifier and storage received The second privacy key in nonvolatile memory 123 generates requested session key.If on memory devices Nonvolatile memory of first privacy key with being stored in memory devices 122 in 109 nonvolatile memory 110 The second privacy key in 123 is related, then the session key that logic circuit 111 generates and the session that logic circuit 124 generates are close Key matches.At 164, it is close that the logic circuits 124 of memory devices 122 to printer controller 116 provides requested session Key.At 166, printer controller 116 is using the session key received to printer controller 116 and replaceable printer Communication between the memory devices 109 of component 108 is authenticated.
Fig. 3 is that the request that reads or writes to replaceable printer unit 108 that diagram is used to send print system 104 carries out The flow chart of one embodiment of the method 166 of certification.At 170, in the memory devices of replaceable printer unit 108 In the case of session key is established in 109 and establishes session key in print system 104, printer controller 116 uses Its session key and appropriate cryptographic algorithm calculate the first message authentication code for reading or writing request(MAC).First MAC is Calculated for the order for reading or writing request and command parameter.In one embodiment, MAC is used in the calculating of the first MAC Scattered symbol(diversifier)To prevent the Replay Attack for memory devices 109.
In one embodiment, such as Secure Hash Algorithm 1 is utilized(SHA-1), SHA-2 or other appropriate secure Hash The secure Hash of algorithm, based on hash message authentication code(HMAC)Calculate the first MAC.In another embodiment, using it is all in full According to encryption standard(DES), 3DES, Advanced Encryption Standard(AES), Rivest cipher code methods 2(RC2)Block cipher(cipher block)Algorithm or other appropriate block cipher algorithms, according to the MAC based on password(CMAC)Calculate the first MAC.At it In his embodiment, the first MAC is calculated using another appropriate technology.
At 172, the memory devices 109 of printer controller 116 to replaceable printer unit 108 are sent including One MAC's reads or writes request.At 174, request is read or write in response to this, the logic circuit 111 of memory devices 109 uses it Session key and cryptographic algorithm are that the request that reads or writes received calculates the 2nd MAC.At 176, the logic of memory devices 109 Circuit 111 is by the first MAC received compared with the 2nd MAC calculated.
At 178, if the first MAC is matched with the 2nd MAC, the session key and print system of memory devices 109 104 session key matching.Therefore, the communication between memory devices 109 and printer controller 116 is certified.180 Place, the logic circuit 111 of memory devices 109 perform requested read or write.Established session key is used to every Repetition methods 170 are asked in a other reading or writing, until communication session terminates.Communication session can be by printer controller 116 Terminate or terminate because of the power down of print system 104 and/or replaceable printer unit 108.
At 178, if the first MAC is not matched with the 2nd MAC, the session keys of memory devices 109 not with printing The session key matching of system 104.Therefore, the communication between memory devices 109 and printer controller 116 is not authenticated. At 182, requested read or write is abandoned or refused to the logic circuit 111 of memory devices 109.At 184, memory The logic circuit 111 of equipment 109 is by its session key labeled as invalid so that it cannot be used again.
Embodiment provides the print system that can wherein install replaceable printer unit.Print system embodiment includes The memory devices of the one or more privacy keys of storage.It is real with print system that replaceable printer unit embodiment includes storage Apply the memory of the relevant one or more privacy keys of the one or more privacy key stored in the memory devices of example Equipment.One or more privacy keys for storing are used for pair in print system embodiment and in replaceable printer unit embodiment Communication between print system embodiment and replaceable printer unit embodiment is authenticated.
Although being illustrated and described herein specific embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art are not it will be recognized that On the premise of deviateing the scope of the present invention, a variety of alternatives and/or equivalent implementation can substitute shown or described specific Embodiment.This application is intended to cover any adaptation of specific embodiment discussed here or change.Therefore, this invention is intended to only by Claim and its equivalent limit.
