Terminal Device Dynamic Notification Display Format Adaptation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication systems for MFPs and terminal devices lack the ability to dynamically adjust notification screen formats based on received information, which can lead to user inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A terminal device configured to receive notification related information from a server, which includes format information indicating the display format of the notification screen, allowing the device to switch between different display formats for the notification screens.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the terminal device uses a fixed notification screen display format, then the device complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to different notification types and user preferences deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The notification screen display format is made dynamic by allowing the terminal device to switch between different formats (first display format and second display format) based on the format information included in the notification related information received from the server. This enables the system to adapt to different notification types and user preferences without requiring complex manual configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the display format parameter of the notification screen based on the format information received from the server. By receiving format information that indicates whether to display in the first or second display format, the terminal device can adjust its notification presentation to match the intended communication style or user preference.
2Loss of information
If the terminal device displays detailed notification information, then the information completeness is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates due to information overload
Solution Approach 1:
The notification information is segmented into different display formats: the first display format presents notification information in a more detailed manner, while the second display format presents it in a more condensed manner. Users can switch between these formats based on their current needs, allowing them to view either comprehensive details or a quick overview without being overwhelmed by information in all cases.
Solution Approach 2:
The notification display dynamically adjusts between detailed and condensed formats based on user selection or server indication. This dynamic switching allows the same notification content to be presented at different levels of detail, improving ease of operation by allowing users to choose the appropriate information density for their current context.

AI summary
A terminal device may receive, from a first server, notification related information including format information. The terminal device may, in a case where the notification related information includes first format information indicating a first display format, display on a display of the terminal device a first notification screen according to the first display format. The first notification screen may include first notification information related to first related information included in the notification related information. The terminal device may, in a case where the notification related information includes second format information indicating a second display format different from the first display format, display on the display a second notification screen according to the second display format. The second notification screen may include second notification information related to second related information included in the notification related information.
