Appeal No. 2001-0954
Application No. 08/977,193
Claim 1 is illustrative of the claimed invention, and it
reads as follows:
1. A printing system, with a memory and a plurality of
document processing related subsystems, for processing a
facsimile document with an image data set, the printing
system including a printing subsystem communicating with an
input device, by way of a network, so that one or more
prints are producible from the image data set when the image
data set is transmitted from the input device to the
printing subsystem, comprising:
a) a facsimile user profile, stored in the memory of
the printing system, including one or more attribute sets
with each attribute set, along with a corresponding set of
attribute values, defining a manner in which a portion of
the facsimile document is to be processed at the printing
subsystem;
b) a facsimile processing subsystem for reading the
facsimile user profile; and
c) a controller, cooperating with the facsimile
processing subsystem, for determining whether the document
processing related subsystem defined by the one or more
attribute sets of the facsimile user profile and by the
corresponding attribute values is enabled to process the
portion of the facsimile document, wherein the portion of
the facsimile document is processed with the defined
document processing related subsystem when it is determined
that the defined document processing related subsystem is
enabled.
