Abstract: An image processing system that is capable of retrying transmission of image data without limiting execution of other jobs in an image processing apparatus. An instruction to execute a job which reads an original, generates image data of the original, and sends the image data to a user-specified destination, is received from a user. An information processing apparatus generates a command for executing the job and sends the command to the image processing apparatus. The image processing apparatus executes the job based on the command. When sending of the image data to the user-specified destination is unsuccessful, the image processing apparatus sends the image data to the information processing apparatus. In accordance with an instruction received from the user, the information processing apparatus sends the image data to the user-specified destination.

Abstract: An information processing system in which an information processing apparatus and a voice control apparatus can communicate via a network is provided. The information processing apparatus holds a security level of the voice control apparatus, obtains, when an occurrence of a predetermined event is detected, information relating to a message associated with the predetermined event, and determines a message to be transmitted to the voice control apparatus based on the security level of the voice control apparatus and information relating to the message. The voice control apparatus reproduces the message, which has been transmitted from the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: An information processing system that is configured such that a plurality of speakers are coordinated with one information processing apparatus and is capable of coping with a state of competition between instructions to the speakers. An information processing system includes an image forming apparatus, a first voice control device that receives a voice instruction to the image forming apparatus, and a second voice control device that receives a voice instruction to the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus is controlled to execute a job based on information on which of the first voice control device and the second voice control device is a device which is to be preferentially used.
