  • Publication number: 20190028609
    Abstract: A data communication apparatus that is capable of improving operability when inputting authentication information. An authentication unit accepts authentication information inputted when a user logs in to the data communication apparatus and authenticates the user based on the accepted authentication information. A designation unit designates a file transmission destination that is inputted by the authenticated user. A transmission unit transmits a file to the transmission destination inputted. A registration unit registers the transmission destination of the file. A control unit prohibits registration of the authentication information at the time of registration of the transmission destination of the file when the accepted authentication information is used for file transmission, and permits registration of the authentication information at the time of registration of the transmission destination of the file when the inputted authentication information is not used for file transmission.

  • Patent number: 10097700
    Abstract: The present facsimile apparatus accepts inputs of a destination of facsimile transmission and a communication network to be used for the facsimile transmission, and further accepts re-entry of the destination and the communication network. The facsimile apparatus is controlled so as to execute the facsimile transmission if both the first input destination and communication network match the re-entered destination and communication network, and so as not to execute the facsimile transmission if at least one of the first input and accepted destination and communication network does not match the re-entered and accepted destination and communication network.

  • Publication number: 20180241924
    Abstract: A communication apparatus, in response to a first operation of pressing both a first operation member and a second operation member being performed during display of an image, designates the image being displayed as an image to be transferred, which is to be transferred to the external apparatus, and in response to a second operation that is different from the first operation and uses a plurality of operation members being performed, designates the image being displayed as an image to be priority transferred, which is to be transferred with greater priority than the image to be transferred. The plurality of operation members to be used in the second operation include at least one of the first operation member and the second operation member.

  • Publication number: 20180048803
    Abstract: A communication device has a first communication unit, a second communication unit, and a third communication unit. The communication device gives priority to communication by the third communication unit in a first period that does not include a period for a process for switching communication by the first communication unit to communication by the second communication unit, even if communication by the first communication unit is underway. The communication device also gives priority to communication by the first communication unit over communication by the third communication unit in a second period that includes the period for the process for switching.

  • Publication number: 20170118373
    Abstract: A transmission job for transmitting image data is executed. A report indicating a result of transmission of the image data is output. A first instruction regarding output of the report is accepted as a common setting for a plurality of transmission jobs. A second instruction regarding output of the report is accepted as an individual setting for a specific transmission job. Control is performed so as to output the report if the second instruction indicates that the report is to be output, even if the first instruction does not indicate that the report is to be output.
