An information processing apparatus includes a controller configured to manage the printing device on the basis of user information of a corresponding user. The controller further performs: (a) acquiring individual information identifying the printing device; (b) acquiring initialization identification information used for determining whether an information initialization has been performed on a specific printing device identified by the individual information acquired in the (a) acquiring; (c) determining, on the basis of the individual information acquired in the (a) acquiring and the initialization identification information acquired in the (b) acquiring, whether the information initialization has been performed on the specific printing device along with transfer of ownership of the specific printing device from a first user to a second user; and (d) prohibiting, in response to determining in the (c) determining that the information initialization has been performed, the second user from accessing the user information of the first user.

An image forming device includes a memory; and at least one processor in communication with the memory. The at least one processor of the image forming device is configured to perform: receiving job information for executing a function of the image forming device from a terminal, the job information including user information; based on the user information included in the received job information, logging a user into the image forming device; executing a job based on the received job information; and based on execution of the job, logging out the user from the image forming device.

An image forming device includes a storage unit and a control unit. The storage unit stores user information according to a specific device connected to an external network in advance. The control unit receives an execution instruction as an execution instruction of a job by a user indicated by the user information according to the specific device, if the execution instruction of the job is received from the specific device via the external network, and executes the job according to the execution instruction.

An image processing apparatus includes: a receiver that communicates with a terminal device, and receives, from the terminal device, destination information including group information; a selector that selects, in a case where a selected group history indicating that the group information is selected in the past is stored in a storage, one piece of group information from among the group information included in the destination information, based on the selected group history; and a screen displayer that performs control of displaying, on a displayer, destination information including the one piece of group information selected by the selector.

An information processing apparatus configured to communicate with a terminal and including a hardware key includes a memory and at least one processor in communication with the memory. The at least one processor of the information processing apparatus is configured to perform transmitting, to the terminal, information about a screen corresponding to a screen displayed on a display unit included in the information processing apparatus, receiving, from the terminal, operation information including coordinate information, the operation information corresponding to a user operation received on the screen displayed on the terminal based on the transmitted information about the screen, converting the operation information into operation information corresponding to the hardware key based on the coordinate information included in the received operation information, and executing processing based on the converted operation information.

Techniques for receiving a scan request and creating a proxy scan job by imaging devices are described. According to the present subject matter, a scan request is received from a contact identifier. Further, a proxy scan job corresponding to the scan request is created. Thereafter, a password corresponding to the scan request is generated and transmitted to the contact identifier.

An information processing apparatus includes a control circuit configured to operate as a setting tool that performs setting of an application installed in a client device by executing a setting tool program. The setting tool includes an application setter and a server synchronizer. The application setter is configured to perform setting of an application in a client device. The server synchronizer is configured to synchronously register the client device on which setting has been performed by the application setter in a server apparatus that manages a client device which is provided with a function of the application with the setting performed on the client device by the application setter as a trigger.

A first controller of an image forming apparatus executes a remote display control. The remote display control is control of, in response to receiving a start request from one of a plurality of information processing apparatuses, controlling a requesting information processing apparatus to display a remote screen. A second controller of the requesting information processing apparatus displays the remote screen in accordance with the remote display control by the first controller. A determination controller determines whether the remote display control is currently executed by a previous request. The first controller is configured to: in response to determining that the remote display control is not currently executed by the previous request, execute the remote display control for the requesting information processing apparatus; and in response to determining that the remote display control is currently executed by the previous request, not execute the remote display control for the requesting information processing apparatus.

An information processing apparatus includes a user list providing unit configured to receive device identification information from a current device connected via a network and to send, to the current device, a user list including one or more user identifiers that are stored in a storage unit in association with the received device identification information; and a program list providing unit configured to receive a user identifier that is selected at the current device from the user identifiers in the user list and to send, to the current device, a program list including sets of program information stored in the storage unit in association with the received user identifier.

Techniques for providing location identifiers of devices to render image data comprising faces are described. According to an example of the present subject matter, a face present in image data is detected. A contact identifier corresponding to the face is obtained and a location identifier of a device to render image data is sent to the contact identifier.
