  • Patent number: 11172090
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a reception unit that receives, from another apparatus, data for replication of a function of storing data in a preset storage area; a validation unit that validates restriction information for controlling execution of the function if the data for replication received by the reception unit includes information indicating that plural networks are set in the storage area in which the data is to be stored by the function; and a restriction unit that restricts execution of the function if the execution of the function is instructed and the restriction information is validated.

  • Patent number: 10404880
    Abstract: An image forming device includes a search processor and a display controller. The search processor searches storage location information corresponding to storage locations storing image data. When multiple storage location information with the same identification information is found by search, the display controller causes a display unit to display representational information collectively representing the multiple storage location information, and causes the display unit to display information related to image data using a different process of displaying information related to image data stored in the multiple locations, according to whether or not attribute information used as supplementary information for identifying storage location information is associated with each of the multiple storage location information corresponding to specified representational information.

  • Patent number: 9813568
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: a providing unit that provides a document data accumulated in a host apparatus according to a request from another apparatus in a same apparatus group to which the host apparatus belongs; and a control unit that acquires information of a size of document group accumulated in each of other image processing apparatuses from each of those image processing apparatuses in the apparatus group, and performs control of moving the document among the host apparatus and those image processing apparatuses in such a manner that the size of the document group accumulated in the host apparatus and each of those image processing apparatuses approaches uniform.

  • Patent number: 9323491
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a storage storing attribute information of the apparatus, a receiving unit receiving an instruction to perform image processing from a terminal, a checking unit, a request unit, an acquiring unit, an extracting unit, and a notification unit. The checking unit checks the image processing condition against the attribute information, and determines whether the instruction is executable in the apparatus. The request unit requests attribute information from a second image processing apparatus when the instruction is determined to be inexecutable in the apparatus. The acquiring unit acquires one or more pieces of attribute information transmitted as a response to the request. The extracting unit extracts attribute information of a second image processing apparatus which may execute the instruction, from the one or more pieces of attribute information.
