Abstract: There is provided an operation screen providing system including a relay apparatus and an operation screen providing apparatus. A function providing unit provides an additional function which is not inherent of a processing apparatus, to the processing apparatus. A requesting unit that requests an operation screen providing apparatus for an operation screen for the processing apparatus, if an operation screen request is received from the processing apparatus. A providing unit that receives operation screen information including screen information for receiving an instruction relative to a function of the processing apparatus and screen information for receiving an instruction relative to the additional function which the relay apparatus provides, from the operation screen providing apparatus in response to the request of the requesting unit, and provides the received operation screen information to the processing apparatus.

Abstract: There is provided an operation screen providing system including a relay apparatus and an operation screen providing apparatus. An acquiring unit acquires type information representing a type of a processing apparatus, and customization information representing how the processing apparatus is customized from a standard configuration of the type. A request unit requests the operation screen providing apparatus for standard operation screen information corresponding to the type information, when receiving an operation screen request from the processing apparatus. An operation screen providing unit customizes the standard operation screen information according to the customization information to generate individual operation screen information and provides the individual operation screen information to the processing apparatus.

Abstract: A relay apparatus includes: a first transmission unit that transmits first information specifying the relay apparatus to the management apparatus through a network, in response to the relay apparatus being connected to the network; a collection unit that collects management information regarding a management target device, from the management target device connected to the network, in which the collection unit does not collect the management information from the management target device until an activation instruction is received from the management apparatus, and starts to collect the management information from the management target device only after the activation instruction is received from the management apparatus; and a second transmission unit that transmits the collected management information to the management apparatus.

Abstract: A device management system includes: a management apparatus including a first memory unit that stores a control program for controlling a management target device, for each type of the management target device; and a relay apparatus including an acquisition unit that acquires the control program corresponding to a type of the management target device connected to the relay apparatus from the management apparatus, and an execution unit that executes a process for supplying the control program acquired by the acquisition unit to a control device connected to the relay apparatus, the control device controlling the management target device connected to the relay apparatus.

Abstract: A fill-in form providing device includes: a transmission section that transmits information of a user interface for a fill-in form to an image forming device in response to an acquisition request to acquire the user interface issued from the image forming device; a printing instruction section that instructs the image forming device to print a fill-in form associated with the user interface for the fill-in form, in response to a printing request to print the fill-in form based on an operation of the user interface for the fill-in form in the image forming device; a reception section that receives image data, which is generated through image reading based on the operation of the user interface for the fill-in form in the image forming device, and storage destination information; and a storage processing section that executes processing for storing the image data in the storage destination.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes the following elements. A memory stores therein plural items of image information. A selector selects a specific item of image information from among the plural items of image information as a selected item of image information. A specifying unit specifies, from among the plural items of image information, an item of image information indicating an image which has been captured on an identical date as a date on which an image indicated by the selected item of image information has been captured. A subject extracting unit extracts information concerning a subject of an item of image information. A destination setting unit sets a sending destination corresponding to information concerning a subject of an item of image information extracted by the subject extracting unit as a destination of the item of image information specified by the specifying unit.
