Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a document reading section, a reading controller, an image transfer section, and a transfer controller. The document reading section reads documents. The reading controller controls the document reading section so as to read document images subsequent to a first sheet independently of a command from a host apparatus. The image transfer section transfers the document images which are read by the document reading section. The transfer controller controls the image transfer section based on the number of pages of the documents, which are read by the document reading section, and the number of pages of the document images, which are transferred by the image transfer section, in a case where the document images are transferred by the image transfer section whenever the document reading section reads one sheet of document.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a reading job acception section that accepts a reading job; a determination section that, in a case where the reading job acception section accepts a one page reading job subsequent to a previous one page reading job, determines an identity between the reading job and the previously accepted reading job; and a processing section that, in a case where it is determined that the identity with the previously accepted reading job exists as a result of determination of the determination section, processes the reading jobs as one reading job.

Abstract: An image scanning apparatus includes: a reading unit that reads image data, which includes an image of a document transported along a transport path and an image at a scanning position of the image, from a storage area in synchronization with a reading synchronization signal; a detection unit that detects a dirt at the scanning position by processing the image data; and a delay unit that delays and outputs a period, during which the synchronization signal to be provided to the detection unit is valid, until reading of data of a document part included in the image data starts.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes a transport unit, a reader, a detector, and a controller. The transport unit transports a document. The reader reads the transported document. The detector detects whether or not a document bundle prior to being transported is present. While a document in a first document bundle corresponding to a first job is being transported, if the detector detects that a document in a second document bundle corresponding to a second job as a subsequent job is loaded, the controller actuates the transport unit until all documents in the first document bundle are output.

The detector detects whether or not a document bundle prior to being transported is present. While a document in a first document bundle corresponding to a first job is being transported, if the detector detects that a document in a second document bundle corresponding to a second job as a subsequent job is loaded, the controller changes pre-feeding operation for preliminarily pulling a document in the second document bundle into the image reading apparatus in accordance with a pull-in position of the document in the image reading apparatus.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: an information storage that stores information; a request accepting section that accepts a predetermined request for the information; a setting section that, for each of the information, sets whether the predetermined request is allowed; a setting storage that stores a setting by the setting section; a determining section that, with respect to the information corresponding to a request accepted by the request accepting section, reads out a corresponding setting from the setting storage, and that determines allowance/non-allowance of the predetermined request; and a process executing section that, in a case where the determining section determines allowance of the predetermined request, executes a process corresponding to the predetermined request on the information.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a lock section, a creation section, a transmission section, a reception section, and a release section. The lock section disables an authorization function of the information processing device under a given condition. The creation section creates a first lock release file that is capable of releasing the authorization function disabled by the lock section. The transmission section transmits the first lock release file to an information management device. The reception section receives a second lock release file, which is based on the first lock release file, from the information management device. The release section tries to enable the authorization function of the information processing device when the second lock release file is determined to be valid.
