A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores instructions which cause, when executed by a processor, a computer to obtaining designated data and designated condition information. The designated data includes the image data and, the designated condition information indicates multiple designated parameters respectively corresponding to multiple items constituting an execution condition for an outputting operation. The instructions cause the computer to transmit parameter request information to a server, receive parameter instruction information including recommendable parameters associated with the group identifying information from the server as a response to the parameter request information, cause the image outputting device to execute the outputting operation using the recommendable parameters included in the parameter instruction information as the parameters for the particular items, and using the designated parameters for the other items.

Provided is an image forming apparatus that can acquire a log at the time of connection with a support terminal of remote maintenance service. The image forming apparatus includes a connecting part, an operation acquiring part, and a log acquiring part. The connecting part connects with the support terminal in a session of a specific protocol. The operation acquiring part acquires operational information corresponding to operation of the support terminal connected by the connecting part. The log acquiring part acquires log information, which is acquired in the support terminal, with the same session as the operational information acquired by the operation acquiring part.

Methods and systems for an auditing infrastructure for an Internet fax service architecture are provided. According to one embodiment, information regarding an event, associated with a component of the Internet fax service architecture, that is to be logged, is received by a centralized audit logging module of the Internet fax service architecture. The component may be a web server, an email server, a fax server, a notification server or an imaging system. The information is utilized by the centralized audit logging module to determine specific parameters within the Internet fax service architecture to be logged. Finally, the event, including the information and the specific parameters, is recorded by the centralized audit logging module to an audit log associated with the Internet fax service architecture in a standardized format.

An image processing apparatus includes: a display unit configured to display an operation screen; an acquisition unit configured to acquire biological information of a user performing operation using the operation screen, the biological information varying reflecting a state of the user; and a registration control unit configured to control operation of registering information on the operation screen and the biological information of the user in association with each other.

An information processing apparatus includes an obtaining unit that obtains, from an external apparatus, a data transmission condition that specifies a timing at which data regarding a state change of the information processing apparatus is transmitted to the external apparatus and that has been created on a basis of at least of an operation state of the information processing apparatus and a transmission unit that, if the data is generated as a result of a state change of the information processing apparatus, establishes, in accordance with the state change of the information processing apparatus, a first mode in which the data is transmitted to the external apparatus regardless of the timing specified by the data transmission condition or a second mode in which the data is transmitted to the external apparatus in accordance with the timing specified by the data transmission condition.

A method for controlling a communication apparatus includes receiving a transmission destination, acquiring identification information of a user who inputs a transmission destination of image data, requesting identification information of a checker for the transmission destination, acquiring the requested checker identification information, and storing the acquired user identification information and the acquired checker identification information as transmission history information of the image data.

Registration in an address book from a transmission history which may lead to erroneous transmission is prohibited, and other address book registration and the like are enabled, so that erroneous transmission can be prevented without impairing convenience.

A system includes a storage unit that stores history information associating a device executed processing and processed data with each other, a screen display unit that displays a screen in which at least one piece of history information is displayed and that is used for causing the device to execute processing based on the history information selected from the displayed at least one piece of history information, a generating unit that generates instruction information for instructing the device to execute the processing of data corresponding to the history information, a processing executing unit that executes the processing of the data based on the instruction information, and a recording unit that records the device that executed the processing and the processed data in the storage unit as the history information based on the instruction information for instructing the processing of the data executed by the processing executing unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a control unit. The control unit changes between a first setting and a second setting of a collaborative function, the second setting being different from the first setting, at least one of a display position of an image and display of connection between images, the image and the images each being associated with a function to be used for the collaborative function.
