An image reading apparatus includes a memory, a first transmission unit, a reception unit, and a second transmission unit. The memory stores a read image read by an image reading part. The first transmission unit transmits identification information identifying the image reading apparatus to a mobile terminal. The reception unit receives a transfer request for transferring the read image. The transfer request is received from an image forming apparatus receiving the identification information from the mobile terminal. The second transmission unit transmits the read image stored in the memory to the image forming apparatus. The read image is transmitted after the transfer request is received.

In the system, the image forming apparatus includes a unit that sends the status information of the image forming apparatus to the management server, and a unit that requests the web service provided by the service server to register device information, and the service server includes a unit that register and manage user information of a user of the web service provided by the service server, a unit that, in response to a request from the image forming apparatus, registers the device information of the image forming apparatus and user information managed in association with each other, and a unit that issues, to the user of the image forming apparatus that is registered with the web service, a notification related to the image forming apparatus, using the status information provided by the management server.

An image forming apparatus includes: an image forming unit configured to form an image on a print medium based on print data supplied from an information processing apparatus; a first communication interface configured to perform wireless communication with the information processing apparatus by a first communication method in which the number of connectable apparatuses is set; a second communication interface configured to perform wireless communication with the information processing apparatus by a second communication method; and a system controller. The system controller is configured to cause the second communication interface to transmit a notification to the information processing apparatus when the number of apparatuses which are connected by the first communication interface has reached the number of connectable apparatuses, the notification representing that the number of apparatuses which are connected by the first communication interface has reached the number of connectable apparatuses.

An apparatus that executes a job, broadcasts a wireless signal prior to establishing a connection by wireless communication with an external apparatus. The wireless signal includes information relating to the apparatus, by which it can be identified whether execution of a job by the apparatus is possible, in a predetermined packet.

A configuration is provided in which in a case where a user operation is performed on an image forming apparatus or a data processing apparatus while the image forming apparatus and the data processing apparatus are operating in cooperation with each other, the automatic clearing timers of both the apparatuses are reset.

An image forming apparatus and terminals are connected. The image forming apparatus comprises an image forming unit, a detector that detects an error, and a controller that when the error is detected, specifies a portable terminal to which a work to eliminate the error is requested, transmits a request to the specified terminal, and transmits a notification that notifies an occurrence of the error to each terminal other than the specified terminal. The terminal that has received the request displays information representing an error type and information promoting an elimination of the error, and the terminal that has received the notification displays not the information that promotes the elimination of the error but the information representing the error type.

An apparatus that executes a job, broadcasts a wireless signal prior to establishing a connection by wireless communication with an external apparatus. The wireless signal includes information relating to the apparatus, by which it can be identified whether execution of a job by the apparatus is possible, in a predetermined packet.

A mobile terminal capable of setting a cover sheet and a header of a fax document and causing an image forming apparatus to transmit the fax document. Cover data representative of a cover sheet is created according to the settings of a cover sheet of a fax document, and header data representative of a header is created according to the settings of a header of the fax document. Upon receipt of an instruction for transmitting a fax document from the user, the mobile terminal transmits an instruction to the image forming apparatus for reading an original and transmitting the fax document, together with transmission destination information indicative of a transmission destination to which the fax document is to be transmitted and at least one of the cover data and the header data.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a computer program readable by a computer of a communication apparatus, the computer program causing the communication apparatus to: when first trigger information for establishing first wireless connection is received, supply a first connection instruction to a first wireless interface and store device information into a memory; when second trigger information is received, supply a second connection instruction to the first wireless interface; and in a specific case where it is not possible to re-establish first wireless connection with the external apparatus, display, on a display, display information for re-establishing the first wireless connection with the external apparatus. The display information includes first display information in case the device information is first device information, and second display information in case the device information is second device information.

There is provided a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing application program executable by a processor of an information processing apparatus which communicates with a scanner having specific information. The specific information indicates whether the scanner is configured to generate a specific file for which specific processing is executable by a specific program. The application program, when executed by the processor, causes the information processing apparatus to: obtain an image read by the scanner; obtain the specific information from the scanner; and generate a file indicating the obtained image. In a case that the specific information is first information, the application program causes the information processing apparatus to generate the file with usable information embedded therein. In a case that the specific information is second information, the application program cause the information processing apparatus to generate the file without the usable information embedded therein.
