Abstract: An image processing system applies an image processing job to received image information according to contents of previously created definition information. The image processing system comprises an image forming apparatus configured to receive image information, associated with user information for specifying a user, through a public line an information processing unit configured to previously generate process definition in which a process to be executed by the image forming apparatus is described, and a storage unit configured to store the process definition previously generated by the information processing unit. The image forming apparatus has an acquisition unit configured to specify the user based on the user information extracted from the received image information and acquire the process definition associated with the user.

Abstract: In a data processing system, a document transmission apparatus capable of transmitting acquired data, a computer system including a data management unit for storing and managing data and a data storage unit for performing a process of causing to store the data transmitted from the document transmission apparatus in the data management unit, and an information processing terminal to be used by a user are connected through a network. In this system, the data storage unit comprises a storage destination acquisition unit adapted to acquire storage destination information of the data stored by the data management unit, from the data management unit, and a notification unit adapted to transmit, to the information processing terminal, a notification to which the storage destination information acquired by the storage destination acquisition unit has been added. Thus, it is possible to reduce a load on the network and improve security.

Abstract: A job history managing system which is capable of efficiently narrowing down a corresponding job, even if image information has been leaked, and eliminating variation in search results to realize the search result with a high accuracy. The job history managing system has a client PC 11 as a job outputting apparatus.

Abstract: In a print log management system, printing prioritized processing or log-recording prioritized processing is switched in accordance with network performance. A driver agent transmits a job log to a server to measure a response time, and compares the obtained response time with a threshold. If the response time is equal to or longer than the threshold, printing performance is prioritized and the control is switched to process 3, in which log information is transmitted after the printing is completed. If the response time is less than threshold and the content log transmission speed is equal to or higher than second threshold, the control is switched to process 2 in which only the job log is transmitted before printing. If content log transmission speed is less than the second threshold, the control is switched to process 1 in which the content log of the print data is transmitted each time a page is outputted.

Abstract: A FAX document image is acquired from an external device having a FAX receiving function, a telephone number of a transmission source of the FAX document image is acquired, a folder of a document management system as a destination of registration is automatically determined based on a mapping table showing a mapping between the telephone number of the transmission source and the registration destination folder, and the acquired telephone number of the transmission source, the FAX document image is registered in the folder of the document management system as the destination of registration in a way that attaches an index to the FAX document image.
