An image forming apparatus includes a communication interface, a controller, and an image forming section. The communication interface acquires an Internet Protocol (IP) address through a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function of a network. The controller causes the image forming apparatus to operate in a first mode based on acquisition of the IP address, and causes the image forming apparatus to operate in a second mode until the IP address is acquired. The image forming section forms an image on an image formation medium in a plurality of modes including a network mode in which the image is formed based on an image formation job acquired through the network. In the second operation mode, operation of the image forming section in the network mode is limited.

An image processing apparatus includes an image reading device, a communication device, and a control device. The control device acts as a controller. The controller recognizes at least one text region in the source image, extracts a predetermined keyword from the at least one text region, generates a cover page by pasting a character string of the text region from which the keyword has been extracted, on a pasting position on a predetermined cover page template, associated with the keyword extracted, and causes the communication device to transmit the generated cover page together with the source image, to the external terminal device.

Embodiments of systems and methods for the sending, delivery and receiving of faxes are disclosed herein. In particular, certain embodiments include a fax connector that may be deployed at a user's site, and a faxing system that may be deployed remotely from the user's site. The fax connector can be accessed at the user's site over a computer based network in order to perform functions associated with faxing, including sending, receiving and obtaining status on faxes. The fax connector deployed at the user's site communicates with the remotely deployed faxing system to send, receive, obtain status on, or perform other functions associated with, faxing.

Embodiment of systems and methods for the sending, delivery or receiving of faxes are disclosed herein. In particular, certain embodiments include a fax connector that may be deployed at users' sites, and a fax registration system that may be deployed remotely from these users' site. The fax connector can be accessed at a user's site over a computer based network in order to perform functions associated with faxing, including sending, receiving and obtaining status on faxes. The fax connector deployed at a sending user's site communicates with the fax registration system to obtain destination data associated with a recipient user's fax connector and transmits the fax to the destination fax connector over the computer based network based on the destination data obtained from the registration system. The fax can then be presented to the recipient at the recipient user's site.

A display device includes a display controller that causes a touch panel to scroll display a plurality of button images, wherein compared with the number of characters displayed in a plurality of button images in a first state being not scrolled, the display controller reduces the number of characters displayed in a plurality of the button images in a second state being scrolled by starting scroll from the first state. Thereby, it is possible to make the scroll speed higher than before.

Embodiments of systems and methods for the sending, delivery and receiving of faxes are disclosed herein. In particular, certain embodiments include a fax connector that may be deployed at a user's site, and a faxing system that may be deployed remotely from the user's site. The fax connector can be accessed at the user's site over a computer based network in order to perform functions associated with faxing, including sending, receiving and obtaining status on faxes. The fax connector deployed at the user's site communicates with the remotely deployed faxing system to send, receive, obtain status on, or perform other functions associated with, faxing.

A transmitting apparatus includes a communication interface that transmits data according to a transmission job, and a controller having one or more processors which executes instructions stored in one or more memories. The controller is configured to set a setting of outputting of a transmission report indicating a transmission result of the transmission job as a device setting of the apparatus, set the setting of outputting of the transmission report as a setting of the transmission job, and set whether or not to accept the setting of outputting of the transmission report of the transmission job as the device setting of the apparatus.

Embodiment of systems and methods for the sending, delivery or receiving of faxes are disclosed herein. In particular, certain embodiments include a fax connector that may be deployed at users' sites, and a fax registration system that may be deployed remotely from these users' site. The fax connector can be accessed at a user's site over a computer based network in order to perform functions associated with faxing, including sending, receiving and obtaining status on faxes. The fax connector deployed at a sending user's site communicates with the fax registration system to obtain destination data associated with a recipient user's fax connector and transmits the fax to the destination fax connector over the computer based network based on the destination data obtained from the registration system. The fax can then be presented to the recipient at the recipient user's site.

Systems and methods for the virtualization, aggregation, enhancement, and distributed processing of facsimile communications. The Remote FAX Interconnect known as etherFAX is a system and method that allows for the reception and delivery of information to or from one or more facsimile systems using Internet/web based communication protocols such as HTTP(S) as the transport between a cooperating facsimile capable application or hardware and the remotely accessible etherFAX services.

An image processing apparatus having a transmission function for transmitting image data includes a reader that reads a document to generate image data, a memory device that stores instructions, and a processor that executes the instructions stored in the memory device. The instructions are executed to execute a transmission job for transmitting the image data generated by the reader, set a first setting for not printing a transmission report representing a transmission result of the transmission job to the image processing apparatus as a device setting of the image processing apparatus, and set a second setting for printing the transmission report to the transmission job as a setting for a transmission job. The transmission report is printed in accordance with the first setting being set to the image processing apparatus and the transmission job to which the second setting is set being executed.
