[0045] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0047] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0048] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0049] When the user operates the image forming device through the control panel, the control panel will display corresponding prompt information in response to the user's specific operation. In some scenarios, prompt information may be displayed frequently and repeatedly, such as device-related prompt information such as "Replace toner cartridge", "Print paper model does not match", and "Network abnormality". Or, the user issues multiple job tasks in a short period of time, and each time a task is executed, the control panel may display a prompt message of "Please confirm that the printing parameters are correct". Alternatively, in response to the user's selection of the control panel, the control panel will also display certain path-related prompt information to assist the user in operation. When the user repeats certain pages, the relevant prompt information will be displayed again, and the user needs to manually close the prompt information. It can be understood that when the prompt information is displayed for the first time, it helps the user understand the situation of the image forming device, and when the prompt information is displayed frequently and repeatedly, it may affect the fluency of the user's operation and reduce the user experience.

[0050] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a prompt information control method, which can selectively display or hide prompt information by distinguishing the information type of each prompt information, thereby improving the user experience. The method can be applied to image forming devices, including printers, copiers, scanners and other devices, and can also be applied to other electronic devices with control panels.

[0051] Figure 1 A flowchart of a prompt information control method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0052] Step 101, when it is detected that the system needs to display prompt information, determine the information type of the current prompt information, the information type includes repeated information or non-repeated information;

[0053] Step 102: If it is determined that the current prompt information is non-duplicate information, the prompt information is displayed normally; if it is determined that the current prompt information is duplicate information, the prompt information is hidden.

[0054] During the process of the user operating the control panel, repeated information may represent prompt information that has been displayed on the control panel before, and non-repeated information may represent prompt information that has not been displayed on the control panel before. Alternatively, repeated information may represent prompt information that has been displayed more than a preset number threshold, and non-repeated information may represent prompt information that has not been displayed more than a preset number threshold. The image forming device may determine the information type of the prompt information based on the historical number of occurrences of each prompt information, and set a corresponding flag bit for each prompt information. For example, for prompt information that has been displayed more than a preset number threshold, the image forming device may set the corresponding flag bit to 1, indicating that such information is repeated information. For prompt information that has not been displayed more than a preset number threshold, the image forming device may set the corresponding flag bit to 0, indicating that such information is non-repeated information.

[0055] In response to the user's operation, the control panel may display corresponding prompt information at different nodes. When the system needs to display prompt information, it can first detect the flag of the current prompt information to determine the information type. If the current prompt information is a duplicate message (such as the flag is 1), the system will hide the current prompt information, that is, the current prompt information will not be displayed in the control panel. If the current prompt information is non-duplicate information (such as the flag is 0), the system will display the current prompt information normally, and the user can see the prompt information in the control panel.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present application, when the number of times the prompt information is displayed exceeds the preset number threshold, it can be considered that the user has understood the content of the prompt information, and the system can automatically hide the prompt information without the user manually closing it. When the number of times the prompt information is displayed does not exceed the preset number threshold, it can be considered that the content of the current prompt information is helpful for the user to operate the image forming device, and the system normally displays the prompt information to assist the user in operation. By distinguishing different types of information and selectively hiding or displaying prompt information, it can be ensured that the user can obtain the necessary information content, and it can also avoid frequent display of prompt information affecting the user's normal operation, thereby improving the overall user experience.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, on the basis of setting a number threshold, the image forming device can also determine the information type of each prompt information based on the user's historical operations on each prompt information and the number of historical appearances of each prompt information. Among them, the user's historical operations on each prompt information can specifically refer to the speed at which the user manually closes the prompt information. It can be understood that if a certain prompt information has been repeatedly appeared and the user manually closes the prompt information at a fast speed, it can be considered that the user is familiar with the specific content of the prompt information, and the prompt information can be hidden when it appears next time. If the user spends a long time viewing a certain prompt information after it is displayed, it can be considered that the prompt information is still helpful to the user and can be displayed normally when it appears next time. Specifically, for the prompt information, when it is detected that the number of historical appearances of the current prompt information is greater than the first number threshold, and the display duration of the current prompt information at least once is less than the first time threshold, the current prompt information can be determined to be repeated information. Prompt information that does not meet the above conditions can be determined as non-repeated information.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present application, the image forming device can more reasonably and accurately determine the information type of each prompt information based on the user's historical operations and the number of times the prompt information appears, thereby hiding repeated information and improving the user's experience.

[0059] Figure 2 A flowchart of another prompt information control method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the method may include:

[0060] Step 201: When a user triggers a setting item, a prompt message needs to be displayed.

[0061] In step 202 , the image forming device detects whether the flag of the current prompt information is 1, and if so, proceeds to step 208 , otherwise proceeds to step 203 .

[0062] Step 203: the image forming device displays prompt information through the control panel.

[0063] Step 204: after detecting that the user closes the prompt information, the display count of the current prompt information is increased by 1.

[0064] Step 205 , the image forming device determines whether the display times of the current prompt information is greater than 1, if so, it proceeds to step 206 , otherwise the whole process ends.

[0065] Step 206 , the image forming device determines whether the current prompt information display time is less than 0.5 seconds, if so, proceeds to step 207 , otherwise the entire process ends.

[0066] Step 207, setting the Flag of the current prompt information to 1.

[0067] Step 208: do not display the current prompt information.

[0068] When a user uses an image forming device, when the user triggers certain setting items, the image forming device needs to display corresponding prompt information. For example, if the user selects to copy by copying, but there is no original on the automatic document feeder ADF, the image forming device may prompt a prompt message "There is no original in the ADF, and copying by copying will not work."

[0069] Before displaying the prompt information, the image forming device checks the flag Flag of the current prompt information. If Flag is 1, the prompt information is not displayed. If Flag is not 1 (0), the prompt information is displayed. Usually, the user will manually close the displayed prompt information. After the image forming device detects that the user has closed the prompt information, it will add 1 to the display times of the current prompt information. After that, the image forming device determines whether the display times of the current prompt information is greater than 1 (the first count threshold). If so, it further determines whether the display duration of the current prompt information is less than 0.5 seconds. If the display times are not greater than 1, the determination process ends. If the display duration of the current prompt information is less than 0.5 seconds, the corresponding Flag is set to 1, otherwise the determination process also ends.

[0070] In the embodiment of the present application, the image forming device sets the first number threshold to 1 and the first time threshold to 0.5 seconds. It can be understood that when the prompt message is displayed for the second time and the user closes it within 0.5 seconds, it can be considered that the user is familiar with the content of the prompt message, that is, the user has a full understanding of the information that the printer ADF does not have originals and cannot copy one by one, and the Flag is set to 1. When the user is logged in, the same prompt message will no longer be displayed.

[0071] In an optional embodiment, if the user has logged into a private account in the image forming device, then when the user account logs out, the image forming device will automatically save the information type of each previously determined prompt information to the database. When the user logs in next time, the image forming device can obtain the previously stored information type in the database and continue to use it. For users who are more proficient in using the image forming device, certain prompt information (such as path prompt information for page jumps) can be continuously hidden. Optionally, the image forming device may also display a first prompt content when the user account logs out, and the first prompt content is used to ask the user whether to save the information type of each prompt information. In response to the user's first operation (confirm to save), the image forming device may save the determined information type to the database, or in response to the user's second operation (cancel save), the image forming device may delete the determined information type.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, by storing the information type corresponding to the user account, the display rules of the prompt information can be adapted to the user's operating habits, thereby improving the user experience.

[0073] In an optional embodiment, if a user uses a public account of an image forming device to perform an operation, after the user completes the operation, the image forming device will delete the information type determined during the user's operation. The image forming device can determine whether the previous user has completed the use based on the length of time the user has not operated. Specifically, the image forming device can set a second time threshold (such as 10 minutes), and when it detects that the current device has not been operated for a period of time exceeding the second time threshold, the determined information type will be deleted. For public accounts, different users have different usage habits, and the information type determined based on the usage habits of the previous user may affect the operation of the next user. Therefore, the image forming device determines that the corresponding information type will be deleted after the previous user has completed the use to ensure normal use by subsequent users.

[0074] Figure 3 A flowchart of another prompt information control method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the method may include:

[0075] Step 301: A user wakes up an image forming device.

[0076] In step 302 , the image forming device detects whether the time from the current moment to the last stop operation is greater than 10 minutes. If so, the process proceeds to step 304 , otherwise, the process proceeds to step 303 .

[0077] Step 303: the image forming device continues to use the previous information type.

[0078] Step 304: the image forming device deletes the previous information type.

[0079] When a printer is used in a public place or when there is no user logged in, it can also realize personalized information prompts after waking up from sleep mode. The public user can automatically delete the information type corresponding to the previous public user by setting the second time threshold to determine that the previous public user has finished using the printer. When the current public user is operating, the image forming device can normally display all the prompt information, which helps to guide new users and enhance the public user experience.

[0080] In an optional embodiment, the user can also choose to manually delete the information type that has been saved to the database. After the information type is deleted, when the user uses it later, each prompt information can be displayed normally according to the original display rules. Specifically, the flag bit of each prompt information can be set to 0 by default. When the user uses the image forming device, the flag bit of some prompt information will be modified to 1. When the image forming device detects that the user wants to delete the saved information type, the flag bit of all prompt information can be set to 0 to restore the initial setting.

[0081] In actual operation, the user can selectively restore the normal display of prompt information in the personal settings menu page. Optionally, the user can choose to restore the normal display of all prompt information, or restore the display of prompt information by group. Figure 4 , the prompt information of the image forming device can be divided into multiple groups, including: paper box prompt information group and consumable prompt information group. Among them, the paper box prompt information group can include paper box prompt information 1 and paper box prompt information 2. The consumable prompt information group can include consumable prompt information 1 and consumable prompt information 2. The user can select a prompt information group to directly restore the prompt information display of the entire group, or select specific prompt information to restore. Figure 4 For example, when the user selects the consumables prompt information group, the normal display of consumables prompt information 1 and consumables prompt information 2 can be directly restored. The image forming device deletes the flag of the prompt information selected to be restored by the user or sets it to the initial default value to realize the normal display of the prompt information.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, by flexibly setting whether the prompt information is displayed, the usage needs of different users can be met and the user experience can be improved.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, the prompt information of the image forming device is usually associated with a corresponding setting item. When the user triggers a certain setting item, the image forming device will display the corresponding prompt information. For hidden prompt information, if the user triggers a certain setting item associated with it multiple times in a short period of time, it can be considered that the user has encountered difficulties during the operation process, and the image forming device can temporarily display the corresponding prompt information to assist the user's operation. Specifically, for repeated information, the image forming device determines whether the current repeated information meets the temporary display condition based on the user's operation on the setting item associated with the current repeated information. If it is determined that the current repeated information meets the temporary display condition, the current repeated information is displayed.

[0084] Reference Figure 5, prompt information 1 is associated with setting item 1 and setting item 2, and prompt information 2 is associated with setting item 1 and setting item 3. When the user frequently triggers setting item 1 and / or setting item 2, the image forming device may temporarily display prompt information 2, and when the user frequently triggers setting item 1 and / or setting item 3, the image forming device may temporarily display prompt information 1.

[0085] For example, setting item 1 is "A5 paper printing", setting item 2 is "double-sided printing", if prompt information 1 can be displayed normally, when the user selects "A5 paper printing" and "double-sided printing" at the same time, the image forming device will display prompt information 1 "A5 paper cannot be printed on both sides". In the scenario where prompt information 1 is hidden, when the user selects "A5 paper printing" and "double-sided printing" at the same time, the image forming device cannot execute the job task, and the control panel does not display the corresponding prompt information. If the user is not familiar with the usage rules of the image forming device, he or she may repeatedly select the above parameters in a short period of time to try to execute. When the image forming device detects that the user's operation meets the conditions for temporary display (such as the frequency of repeated operations is greater than the preset threshold), the prompt information "A5 paper cannot be printed on both sides" will be temporarily displayed on the control panel.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, by selectively temporarily displaying prompt information, unskilled users can be assisted in solving problems encountered during the operation process.

[0087] In an optional embodiment, when the image forming device detects that the number of times repeated information is temporarily displayed exceeds a second number threshold, it will display a second prompt content to ask the user whether to delete the information type of each prompt information. If the user confirms to delete the information type, the image forming device will delete the information type of each prompt information so that each prompt information can be displayed normally according to the original display rules. It can be understood that if the image forming device frequently temporarily displays hidden prompt information, it can be considered that the current user is unfamiliar with the operation of the image forming device. In order to assist the user's operation, the image forming device can prompt the user to restore the normal display of all prompt information. Figure 6 , the image forming device may display the second prompt content on the control panel "Detected that the disabled prompt information was temporarily displayed multiple times, do you want to restore the display of related prompt information". The user can click "Restore All" or "Restore Groups" to enable the prompt information to be displayed normally. After selecting "Restore All", all information types related to the current user account are deleted, that is, the flag values ​​of the prompt information are all restored to the initial value. After selecting "Restore Groups", the user can select to restore some prompt information on the relevant setting page.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the second numerical threshold can be set by the user. Figure 7If the user triggers the prompt condition multiple times and the associated prompt information has been disabled, the system can prompt the user to restore the relevant prompt information when the number of user triggers exceeds this setting value. After the value setting is completed, the user can click OK to save the relevant settings.

[0089] Figure 8 A flowchart of another prompt information control method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the method may include:

[0090] Step 801: User operation triggers prompt information.

[0091] In step 802 , the image forming device detects whether the Flag of the current prompt information is 1. If so, the process proceeds to step 803 , otherwise, the process proceeds to step 806 .

[0092] Step 803: the setting item trigger count of the current prompt information is increased by 1.

[0093] In step 804 , the image forming device determines whether the trigger count is greater than a preset number threshold, and if so, proceeds to step 806 , otherwise proceeds to step 805 .

[0094] Step 805: No prompt information is displayed.

[0095] Step 806, display prompt information.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, for the hidden prompt information, if the user repeatedly triggers the display of the prompt information, when the trigger count exceeds the number threshold, the image forming device will temporarily display the prompt information. Optionally, when the trigger count exceeds the number threshold, the image forming device may first ask the user whether to temporarily display, and after the user confirms the temporary display, display the corresponding prompt information.

[0097] Fig. 9 A flowchart of another prompt information control method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Fig. 9 As shown, the method may include:

[0098] Step 901: The user operation meets the conditions for temporarily displaying prompt information.

[0099] In step 902, the image forming device asks the user whether to temporarily display the prompt information. If so, the process proceeds to step 903, otherwise, the process ends.

[0100] Step 903, temporary display times +1.

[0101] Step 904 , the image forming device determines whether the temporary display times are greater than the second number threshold, if so, proceeds to step 905 , otherwise the process ends.

[0102] Step 905 , the image forming device asks the user whether to restore all prompt information. If so, the process proceeds to step 906 , otherwise the process ends.

[0103] Step 906: the image forming device modifies the flag of the prompt information and restores the normal display of the prompt information.

[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, after the image forming device temporarily displays the prompt information for multiple times, it may be considered that the user is not familiar with the operation process of the image forming device, and relevant information may be displayed to ask the user whether to restore the normal display of the prompt information. After the user confirms the restoration, the image forming device may restore the flag bit of the prompt information to the initial value so that the prompt information can be displayed normally.

[0105] By applying the method of the embodiment of the present application, the image forming device can automatically hide the prompt information, reduce the time for users to browse the known prompt messages, and improve the user experience. In addition, if the user forgets the operation setting and reaches the triggering abnormality (repeatedly modifying the setting items associated with the prompt information), a prompt message will be temporarily popped up to assist the user in correct operation.

[0106] Fig.10 The structure diagram of a prompt information control device provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. The device can be deployed in an image forming device, such as Fig.10 As shown, the device may include: a determination module 1001 and a display module 1002.

[0107] Determination module 1001, for determining the information type of the current prompt information when it is detected that the system needs to display prompt information, the information type including repeated information or non-repeated information;

[0108] The display module 1002 is used to normally display the prompt information if it is determined that the current prompt information is the non-duplicate information, and to hide the prompt information if it is determined that the current prompt information is the duplicate information.

[0109] For the specific process, please refer to the description in the above method flowchart.

[0110] Corresponding to the above-mentioned embodiment, the present application also provides an electronic device, which can be used to implement a main control device of an image forming device. Fig.11 A schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device 1100 may include: a processor 1101, a memory 1102 and a communication unit 1103. These components communicate through one or more buses. Those skilled in the art can understand that the structure of the electronic device shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation on the embodiment of the present application. It can be a bus structure or a star structure, and can also include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange components differently.

[0111] The communication unit 1103 is used to establish a communication channel so that the electronic device can communicate with other devices, receive user data sent by other devices or send user data to other devices.

[0112] The processor 1101 is the control center of the electronic device. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire electronic device. It runs or executes software programs, instructions, and / or modules stored in the memory 1102, and calls data stored in the memory to perform various functions of the electronic device and / or process data. The processor can be composed of an integrated circuit (IC), for example, it can be composed of a single packaged IC, or it can be composed of a plurality of packaged ICs with the same or different functions.
