Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 2 Ver 1.4 1 Introduction This document describes how to use the Print Cloud Web application and the related mobile device applications. Print Cloud has following key components: • Web Interface for Print Cloud • Desktop Sync Program • Android Mobile Application • iPad Mobile Application • iPhone Mobile Application. Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 3 Ver 1.4 2 Web Interface for Print Cloud The Print Cloud website can be access via the following URL: https://www.iceprintcloud.com. 2.1 Log in Screen Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 4 Ver 1.4 2.2 Dashboard The dashboard instantly presents the latest important updates and information for the user to view. The dashboard also shows recent events. To simplify sorting, filters are provided allowing the user to select files with certain key attributes to view. Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 5 Ver 1.4 The dashboard allows “one click” access to all available commands for any item. Clicking on the action menu causes a drop down menu to display; from here the user can initiate several actions. In the above example, clicking the “details” link launches the details page where the user can preview the file, see its attributes (like size, last modified date, etc.); clicking “view” launches a document or slideshow viewer, etc. The dashboard also offers the ability to create ‘favorites’. Any file or folder can be marked as a favorite by simply clicking on the star icon. Being a favorite means that the file or folder shows up in the favorites list in both the web and mobile interfaces. Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 6 Ver 1.4 2.3 Computer The Computer tab enables users to navigate through all the content they have backed up on their computers. At each level (computer view, folder view, document view) different command options are available (described in the section, “actions”). The top level view presents each computer from which the user has backed up data, along with a list of the user‐selected top level folders backed up by the system. Clicking on the computer name displays more details about the backup status and version history. A given computer can be in the following states: ‐ Enabled – computer is backed up. ‐ Disabled – agents are disabled and can’t login. Typically relevant when a computer is lost or stolen. ‐ Recycled ‐ Computer will be permantly deleted from the cloud, including the files that are backed up. The computer will stay in the recycle bin for 14 days before it is deleted, unless the user manually deletes the computer before. Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 7 Ver 1.4 The folder view displays folders and documents within the folder, and allows various folder level actions as shown in the screen shot below. Selecting any document in the folder view displays the details view, which shows previews of the item and provides access to available actions, as shown here. Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 8 Ver 1.4 Documents and images are displayed in a size customized to match the display device being used at the time (monitor, laptop, mobile device). Print Cloud’s conversion technology allows easy reading of documents, through a web browser, as shown below. Web Browser Display: Ricoh Americas Corporation Page 9 Ver 1.4 2.4 Projects The Projects tab enables users to access projects they own or are members. A “project” is a collection of items. Users create a new project by clicking the “+ Create New Project” button as shown by the “red circle” above. Once selected the screen displays as shown below. Once the user clicks “Create Project”, the desktop agent will alert the user that it is sync’ing the new project to the user’s desktop (see details about agent management of projects in the Desktop Agent section).

  • Mac Os 9 Emulator for Mac
    1 / 4 Mac Os 9 Emulator For Mac By contrast, the 68k emulator accesses the very lowest levels of the OS by being at the same level as, and tightly connected to, the Mac OS nanokernel on PPC Macs, which means that the nanokernel is able to intercept PowerPC interrupts, translate them to 68k interrupts (then doing a mixed mode switch, if necessary), and then execute 68k code to handle the interrupts.. It gives developers and consumers a transition period in which to update their application software to run on newer hardware.. Macintosh OS or popularly known as Mac OS used by Apple on its Mac PC’s and Macbook’s is an awesome OS, with its awesome user-interface, and great features, wouldn’t it be more awesome if we are able to run Android on Mac os..
