20090037463 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM THAT STORES PROGRAM THEREOF - Conventionally, there are problems in that object data extracted from an original document is not object data divided into object units a user desires, and that scan data cannot be handled in the object data units when reusing the scan data. To solve these problems, the image processing apparatus extracts each object included in the original document; stores object data of each extracted object with a keyword in a storage device; and visualizes each object data on a display unit. When making multiple selection of the visualized object data individually in accordance with a user instruction, the keywords associated with the plurality of object data selected are displayed. Besides, it is made possible to change the keywords associated with the plurality of object data selected. | 02-05-2009 |
20090195831 | DATA PROCESSING METHOD AND PRINTING SYSTEM - There is disclosed a printing system which can limit users who access a hot folder as a common folder, and need not prepare for another server only for user management. In a printing system of this invention, a management server monitors digital data stored in the hot folder, and limits users who can access the hot folder. When the management server detects that print data is input to the hot folder, a user verification dialog is displayed on a computer as a print data input source to make user verification. When the user verification has succeeded, the digital data input to the hot folder is printed using a printer; when the user verification has failed, the print process of the digital data input to the hot folder using the printer is canceled, thereby limiting the user who accesses the hot folder. | 08-06-2009 |
20100033771 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing apparatus capable of preventing image processing from being performed on data for which an appropriate image processing cannot be carried out and improving the reliability of equipment signature. An MFP as the image processing apparatus reads an original, creates and stores electronic data, and stores electronic data created by an external unit. The electronic data created by the MFP is stored in association with MFP identification information. Electronic data created by the MFP among the stored electronic data is determined based on the MFP identification information. Execution of a function of the MFP on electronic data created by the external unit is restricted. | 02-11-2010 |
20100332624 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR MANAGING ADDRESS BOOK DATA, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING CONTROL PROGRAM THEREFOR - An information processing apparatus that is capable of improving security by restricting improper registration of address book data. A registration unit registers a destination into an address book. A first determination unit determines whether the destination that is to be registered by the registration unit is a new destination. An addition unit adds identification information that shows a new destination to the address book when determined as a new destination by the first determination unit. A requirement unit requires transmitting and registering the address book data to another information processing apparatus. | 12-30-2010 |
20110090534 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND PROGRAM - An image processing apparatus includes a storage destination setting unit configured to set a storage destination for storing image data acquired by reading an image of a document by using a reading unit, an input unit configured to input first image data, which is acquired by reading an image of the document by using the reading unit, and second image data, which is acquired by reading an image of a document including a description of a processing instruction by using the reading unit, a determination unit configured to acquire processing instruction information by analyzing the second image data and to determine whether a description included in a processing target field of the first image data is appropriate according to processing target field information and a processing code included in the acquired processing instruction information, a transmission unit configured, if it is determined by the determination unit that the description in the processing target field is appropriate, to transmit the first image data to the storage destination set by the storage destination setting unit, a generation unit configured, if it is determined by the determination unit that the description in the processing target field is not appropriate, to generate processing instruction information to be used in re-storage processing including the storage destination, and an output unit configured to output data including the processing instruction information generated by the generation unit to a printing unit. | 04-21-2011 |
20110176174 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD FOR IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - At least one of a plurality of images included in a single file is specified in accordance with an operation by a user, and another image is selected from among the plurality of images based on the type of the specified image. At least one of the specified image and the selected other image is output. | 07-21-2011 |
20120263380 | DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - When a display language is different from an OCR language, which is used for document name OCR, the name of a document to be sent may not be correctly displayed on a screen. A data processing apparatus is provided that includes a document name setting unit configured to set a document name including a character string recognized on the basis of document data for the document data generated by a read unit, and a control unit configured to restrain the document name setting unit from setting the document name when a language specified by a character recognition language specifying unit is different from a language specified by a display language setting unit. | 10-18-2012 |
