Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a memory and an arithmetic device. The arithmetic device acts as a registerer, a storage device, and a deleter. The registerer registers a user. The storage device stores function information related to a function to be utilized by the registered user, in the memory in association with the user. The deleter deletes, when one of a plurality of events, defined as triggers for reducing a number of the users registered by the registerer, has occurred, the registration of one or more users and the associated function information, according to a rule corresponding to the event that has occurred. The deleter keeps from deleting, when the event that has occurred, out of the plurality of events, makes the user whose registration has been deleted highly likely to be reregistered, the function information associated with the user whose registration is deleted.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a printing device, a controller that controls the printing device, and a print job management unit that executes a secure print job by the controller based on a job request from a user. The controller executes calibration of the printing device when the controller detects that a predetermined parameter measured from a previous calibration exceeds a predetermined value. The print job management unit, upon receiving a job request for the secure print job, determines whether or not a difference between a current value of the predetermined parameter and the predetermined value is less than a predetermined threshold, and if the difference is less than the predetermined threshold, the print job management unit cancels the secure print job.

Abstract: An image scanning unit scans a page image from a document and generates image data of the page image in accordance with a job request by a login user. A document file of the image data is generated, and saved in a specific folder. An additional information generating unit generates specific additional information that indicates content of the page image. A communication processing unit transmits a message including a network identifier of the document file to a destination user specified by the job request. A server unit transmits the document file upon receiving a transmission request that specifies the network identifier. Further, the communication processing unit (a) does not include the additional information into the message if the destination user is the login user and (b) includes the additional information into the message if the destination user is not the login user.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a printing device and a print job management unit that executes a box print job for printing a document in a document box with the printing device according to a job request made by a user. The print job management unit executes the box print job as a secure print job when a predetermined setting of the document box is of a predetermined value, and executes the box print job as a non-secure print job when the predetermined setting of the document box is not of the predetermined value. The print job management unit resumes the box print job after user authentication when the box print job as the secure print job is interrupted, and resumes the box print job without the user authentication when the box print job as the non-secure print job is interrupted.

Abstract: An image scanning apparatus includes an image scanning unit, an image acquiring unit, a condition determining unit, and a communication processing unit. The image scanning unit scans a document image from a document and generates image data of the document image. The image acquiring unit acquires the image data generated on a single job, generates image files including the image data, and stores the image files into a specific folder. The condition determining unit selects (a) network identifiers of the image files or (b) a network identifier of the specific folder, on the basis of the number of the image files generated and stored on the single job. The communication processing unit transmits to a specific destination a message that includes the selected network identifiers of the image files or the selected network identifier of the specific folder.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a document conveyance portion, an image reading portion that performs feed reading-in in which a document as conveyed is read or table reading-in in which a document on a table is read, a job execution portion that, based on image data, performs a job, an operation panel that accepts setting of a destination, and a control portion. In a continuous read-in mode, the control portion performs control so that reading-in of a document as placed is continuously performed until an input to end reading-in is made. When an automatic continuous read-in condition is satisfied, the control portion performs control so that the image reading portion and the job execution portion automatically operate in the continuous read-in mode. The automatic continuous read-in condition is that table reading-in has been started in a state where a destination corresponding to a particular transmission method is set.
