Abstract: An e-mail processing apparatus, comprising: a communication part that receives e-mails; an accumulator that accumulates the e-mails received via the communication part; a display; and a controller that makes the display display in tree structure, cross relationships between the accumulated e-mails, based on past data of the accumulated e-mails.

Abstract: A job execution apparatus, comprising: an accumulator unit to accumulate jobs with their destination information; an authentication unit to perform an authentication to permit a user to execute jobs transmitted to the user and accumulated in said accumulator unit, and said authentication unit is provided inside or outside of the apparatus; a job execution unit, and a controller unit to make said job execution unit whether or not execute a job transmitted to the user who is permitted by said authentication unit to execute jobs automatically after the authentication, depending on an attribute of the job.

Abstract: An image forming device including a document tag reader that detects a contactless IC tag (document tag) attached to the document. If the document tag reader detects a document tag attached to a document, the tagged document is recognized as having a high management level, and a tagged recording sheet is fed (selected) from a sheet tray storing tagged recording sheets to which a contactless IC tag (sheet tag) is attached. On the other hand, if the document tag reader does not detect a document tag, the document is recognized as having a low management level, and a not-tagged recording sheet is fed (selected) from a sheet tray storing not-tagged recording sheets to which a contactless IC tag (sheet tag) is not attached.

Abstract: Necessity/no necessity for user support (such as enlarged display) is registered for each user or for each screen displayed on the apparatus. A user using the apparatus is specified by means of user authentication. Every time the screen is to be displayed, it is done based on information of necessity/no necessity for user support that has been registered. Thus, operability for the user can be improved.

Abstract: In order to enable a user to easily and quickly set the processing mode, the user interface device sets the processing mode for job execution in an image processing apparatus. This user interface device includes specifying means that specifies the processing modes presented to the user prior to processing mode setting as presentation processing modes, generating means that generates presentation preview images indicating processing results when the image data is processed using the presentation processing modes, display means that displays the generated presentation preview images, and setting means that sets in the image processing apparatus the processing modes corresponding to the displayed presentation preview images.

Abstract: A user interface which displays information regarding a job registered in an image forming apparatus comprises a job information acquisition unit which acquires information regarding the job, an editing function selection unit which acquires selection of an editing function to the information regarding the job by a user, a job information editing unit which carries out the selected editing function to the information regarding the job, limiting the editing of a predetermined item of the information regarding the job, and a job information display unit which displays the edited job information.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus has a storage device provided for a plurality of operators for storing files and run history on the files for each of the plurality of operators. Operators among the plurality of operators can be related. A display device displays information on files which were dealt with by a group including an operator and other operators related to the operator among the plurality of operators when the operator instructs to display the information on files. In a modified example, the information on files is displayed when the operator accesses said storage device.

Abstract: In an image processing apparatus connected to an external apparatus through a network, a user interface is displayed in a display device on documents. A user's instruction is received in the user interface to operate a document stored in the external apparatus and/or in the image processing apparatus. An operation history of documents stored in the external apparatus is obtained. Then; data on the documents displayed in the user interface is controlled based on the obtained operation history.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus capable of creating and transmitting an e-mail to which is attached an image file created by the image forming apparatus, as well as a file received from an external device such as an information processing terminal, without reducing the capacity of the memory installed on the external device.

Abstract: An information processing system capable of storing image files formed by an image forming apparatus in a desired storage position in a desired information processing terminal through simple operations. The system has an information processing terminal and an image forming apparatus that are connected so as to permit data to be transmitted and received therebetween.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus includes a receiving portion for receiving document data containing link information from a user terminal via a network, a link information extracting portion for extracting the link information from the received document data, a scanning portion for scanning an original document image, and an image data pasting portion for pasting image data scanned by the scanning portion to the received document data in accordance with the link information extracted by the link information extracting portion.

Abstract: When a PC as a transmission destination and a shared folder as a saving destination are designated and start of scanning is instructed, a scanner apparatus scans an original, confirms state of activation of the PC and stores the scan data temporarily in a storage unit until the PC is activated. When the PC is activated and transmission becomes possible, the scan data that has been stored in the storage unit is transmitted to the PC and saved in the designated shared folder.

Abstract: In a recording medium, a program for making a computer execute processing is stored. The processing includes detecting a recipient's domain name of an e-mail to be transmitted with data attached to the e-mail from a recipient's address of the e-mail, deciding a format of the data depending on the detected recipient's domain name, formatting the data into the decided format, and transmitting the data formatted into the decided format to the recipient's address as an attachment of the e-mail.

Abstract: A document processing apparatus capable of easily performing various processing for a document in a box and lightening a burden of a user is provided. A user sets contents of document processing for changing the document contents of a document in the box in advance. When prescribed execution conditions (executing timing) are met, the document processing for the document in the box is executed automatically. Furthermore, the user sets a print mode depending on the status of the document in the box in advance. Depending on the timing of receiving the print instruction, the print mode is changed automatically to execute the print processing.
