Abstract: A network multifunctional peripheral enables a desired access target to be more rapidly specified when a user specifies an access target or a storage destination of the data, and includes a control unit arranged to search a storage destination accessible with a plurality of protocols at a predetermined timing, a backup RAM arranged to store a list of searched and acquired accessible storage destinations (browse list), an operation unit arranged to accept an operation from the user, and a display unit arranged to display the browse list stored in the backup when an operation requesting a process involving a specification of the storage destination, for example, an operation such as “scan to CIFS” is accepted.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a scanner and a printer, transmits an image data and a metadata in which an attribute of the image data is described to a document management server, and further includes an output control unit arranged to control whether to output both the image data and the metadata or to output only the metadata.

Abstract: A printing system includes a printing machine and a terminal device that are mutually connected via a network. When an instruction for new authentication data registration is given by the terminal device at a time of receiving an instruction for security printing, the printing machine receives the instruction for the registration. When newly received authentication data is input from an operation unit, the printing machine permits printing of print data in accordance with the instruction for the security printing.

Abstract: A communication terminal device includes a first storage device storing a transmission reservation table which includes information of communication jobs to be transmitted, a second storage device storing image data to be transmitted, and a transmitter transmitting the stored image data to a destination via a communication line in accordance with the transmission reservation table. A controller adds another image data to the stored image data that is to be transmitted, in the same communication job, and stores the combined image data in the second storage device.

Abstract: When confidential data is received in an empty mailbox of a facsimile machine, a receipt notification is printed out from a printer or displayed in a screen. However, if there is old data stored in the same mailbox, a receipt notification is not printed nor displayed.

Abstract: The copier-facsimile system including a recording unit for making a copy of an original or reproducing facsimile image data sent from a remote facsimile and a flap-type paper tray extending outward from a body of the communication terminal device when it is used such that a user can manually feed a recording sheet to the recording unit therefrom. The copier-facsimile system further includes an input key for inputting a first size of a recording sheet to be fed to the recording unit from the flap-type paper tray for printing facsimile image on the recording sheet and a second size of a recording sheet to be fed to the recording unit from the flap-type paper tray for making a copy. RAM stores the first size. The controller changes the recording sheet size setting of the recording unit to the first paper size from the second paper size upon completion of a copy operation if the first paper size is not equal to the second paper size and the copy operation has been carried out using the flap-type paper tray.
