An image processing apparatus communicates with a chat server configured to control sharing of received image data in a transmission destination group based on received information about the group. The image processing apparatus includes a registration unit configured to register a group of the chat server in association with an object, the group serving as a transmission destination of image data, an obtaining unit configured to obtain identification information corresponding to the group from the chat server, a display unit configured to display the registered object, and a transmission unit configured to transmit, if the displayed object is selected, the image data and the information about the group serving as the transmission destination to the chat server. The display unit displays the identification information with the object.

Provided is an information processing apparatus including an operation device, a key activation setter that sets whether to enable or disable a predetermined input operation, a function executer that executes a function selected by the operation device, and a storage that stores immediately preceding setting information containing setting values of setting items of a function executed immediately before. The operation device includes re-operation instruction keys that instruct an operation for the function executed immediately before. After the function selected is executed, setting values of setting items used during the execution are stored as the immediately preceding setting information, and the key activation setter enables an input operation with a re-operation instruction key for a fixed time period. If, within a time period during which the input operation with the re-operation instruction key is enabled, the input operation therewith is performed, a process for the re-operation instruction key is executed.

An image processing apparatus includes a storage device in which a FAX transmission history including a plurality of FAX transmission records is stored, a processor, and a display device. The processor is configured to search the FAX transmission history in response to a search instruction to retrieve FAX transmission records according to a search term specified in the search instruction, and determine a display order of FAX transmission destinations specified in the retrieved FAX transmission records based on a predetermined FAX transmission condition for each of the retrieved FAX transmission records. The display device is configured to display the FAX transmission destinations according to the display order determined by the processor.

A management system includes a plurality of network devices, a client communicating with the plurality of network devices, and a manager managing the client. The manager includes a management unit managing a destination list set including a plurality of destination lists including one or more destinations and a generation unit generating a task in which the destination list set and the network device to be distributed are set. The client includes a first determination unit that determines whether the network device to be distributed is able to manage the plurality of destination lists of the destination list set, based on the task generated by the manager and a second determination unit that determines whether the number of destinations included in the plurality of destination lists of the destination list set is within the number of destinations manageable by the network device to be distributed.

A transmission device includes a controller that, in a case of transmitting a log of a transmission job to a server, controls forwarding such that each log remaining in the server is only a confirmed result for each transmission job.

A printing method, a non-transitory computer readable medium, and a system are disclosed for providing meeting attendees with printed materials. The printing method including receiving a result of an invitation to one or more users; transferring an identifier to an image forming apparatus for the one or more users having accepted the invitation; transferring a material to be printed to the image forming apparatus; printing the material based on a print preference setting when the image forming apparatus has the print preference setting for the one or more users; and printing the material based on an original print setting of the material when the image forming apparatus does not have the print preference setting for the one or more users.

A scanning network includes a central server configured to distribute a scan task. The scan task is associated with a scanning of an identified document. The scanning network further includes a plurality of imaging devices configured to receive and execute a scan task and a storage database configured to receive a document image created from execution of a scan task.
