Accordingly, a designated notice destination that the end of a save period of a file recorded in a file saving apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a save-period counter, a save-period monitoring section for monitoring an end of a save period of each file basing on timing by the save-period counter, an attachment-file making section for making a partial file composed of a part of file contents, a notice transmitting section for notifying a notice destination of a fact that there is a file at the end of a save period, and a notice-file making section for attaching a partial file of the file to the notice of the notice transmitting section.

Abstract: An audio data storing unit stores therein audio data, and an image data storing unit stores therein image data. A control information storing unit stores a playback method used for playing back the audio data and a print method used for printing out the image data. The playback method indicates whether the audio data should be played back when a receiving unit receives the composite data, or should be played back after an instruction is input by a user. The print method indicates whether the image data should be printed out when the receiving unit receives the composite data, or should be printed out after an instruction is input by the user. A speaker unit plays back the audio data in accordance with the playback method. A printer unit prints out the image data in accordance with the print method.

Abstract: In a system where a transmitting apparatus is connected via a network to a receiving apparatus, the receiving apparatus has a storage device for storing destination information which can be registered to a key in an operating device to be operated for transmission in a transmitting apparatus. When data is received from the transmitting apparatus, the destination information including an icon or information on a site wherein the destination information is stored is returned to the transmitting apparatus. Thus, registration of destination information to the key becomes easy at the transmitting apparatus.

Abstract: Disclosed is an access control apparatus controls access to a storage device and includes an access password input device that receives an input of an access password; an access control information acquiring unit that acquires access control information indicating an access password to be inputted for access; an access controller that controls access to a file stored in a file storage region, based on the inputted access password and the access control information, wherein the access controller is operable when different region access passwords are set for accessing a first file storage region and a second file storage region, respectively, to control access after a file stored in the first file storage region has been transported to the second file storage region so that at least one password that could be used to access the file in the first file storage region is inherited after transportation.

Abstract: Allocation reading is started when an allocation origin image processing apparatus sends an allocation reading start alert. An image processing apparatus which received the allocation reading start alert, i.e., the allocation destination image processing apparatus, displays a continue reading specification key on its own display for user specification to continue reading by the allocation reading function. Continue reading is started by user operation of this continue reading specification key. That is, when a document image is read by the allocation destination image processing apparatus, the image data are transmitted to the allocation origin image processing apparatus. Then, the allocation origin image processing apparatus integrates the received image data with the image data read by the allocation origin image processing apparatus.

Abstract: There is provided a printer management method in a computer system of the present invention, which controls a plurality of printers connected to a network, including acquiring information related to an elapsed time from the time when each printer made a transition to the power save mode, and selecting a printer based on the acquired information related to the elapsed time. According to the present invention, a printer can be appropriately selected even when printers are waiting in the power save mode.

Abstract: It is intended to provide a file management apparatus, file management method, and file management program product with which a user who receives a file-saving related notice from system can readily and accurately grasp contents of the notified file. A file management apparatus of this invention is to notify a designated notice destination that end of a save period of a file recorded in a file saving apparatus comes. The file management apparatus includes a save-period counter, a save-period monitoring section for monitoring end of a save period of each file basing on timing by the save-period counter, an attachment-file making section for making a partial file composed of a part of file contents, a notice transmitting section for notifying a notice destination of a fact that there is a file of which end of save period comes, and a notice-file making section for attaching a partial file of the file to the notice of the notice transmitting section.

Abstract: When an MFP receives an e-mail to which audio data is attached, an audio data storing unit and a control information storing unit in the MFP respectively store the audio data and control information related to the audio data. When the MFP receives a playback instruction of the audio data through an operation panel unit, a security processing unit compares a security level of the MFP stored in an environment information storing unit with a security level indicated by the control information. When the security level of the MFP is higher, a speaker unit in the MFP normally plays back the audio data. When the security level of the MFP is lower, the audio data is played back in accordance with an alternative playback method indicated by the control information.
