In a printer, when a storage print job is a print job for execution of carbon-copy printing, a controller performs: creating a plurality of bit map data by rasterizing page-description-language data contained in the storage print job a plurality of times; storing the created bit map data; and controlling an image former to print images based on the stored bit map data when a print instruction for the storage print job is received. When the storage print job is a print job not for execution of the carbon-copy printing, the controller performs: storing the page-description-language data contained in the storage print job; when the print instruction for the storage print job is received, rasterizing the stored page-description-language data to create bit map data; and controlling the image former to print an image based on the created bit map data.

An information processing apparatus, which can communicate with other information processing apparatuses, includes: a volatile storage; a nonvolatile storage; a storage controller that associates data with a user and stores the data; a data manager that shares management information with the other information processing apparatuses; an operation user detector that detects a user operating any of the apparatuses as an operation user; an operation state switcher that switches between a first operation and a second operation state; a data specifier that specifies data related to the operation user and an apparatus stored with the data; a data obtainer that obtains data from a storage device; a transferer that stores data stored in the nonvolatile storage among the specified data in the volatile storage; and a data supplier that returns data specified by a request among the data stored in the second or the volatile storage.

An image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to perform a first storing process including storing into a storage first image data received from a first external device via a first communication interface, when a value representing a condition of a wireless connection between the first external device and the first communication interface is less than a threshold, perform a first image forming process including after completion of the first storing process, controlling the image former to perform image formation for the stored first image data, and when the value is less than the threshold, in response to receiving second image data from a second external device via a second communication interface during the first storing process, perform a second image forming process in advance of the first image forming process, the second image forming process including controlling the image former to perform image formation for the second image data.

An image processing device includes storage unit, a communication portion and an image processing function control portion. The storage unit stores image data. The communication portion performs communication with a server and a portable terminal. The image processing function control portion causes the communication portion to transmit the image data stored in the storage unit to the server and causes the communication portion to transmit the image data to the portable terminal in response to failure of the transmission of the image data to the server by the communication portion.

Disclosed is a non-transitory storage medium storing a communication program for causing a processor to execute a method including steps of receiving an input of facsimile data; determining whether an identification image is added to the received facsimile data; a step of retrieving, when the identification image is added, information indicating an association with different facsimile data from the identification image that is added to the facsimile data; storing the received facsimile data in a predetermined memory, wherein the received facsimile data is associated with the different facsimile data based on the retrieved information; generating, when the identification image is not added, the information indicating the association with the different facsimile data; and adding, to the facsimile data, the identification image that is generated based on the information indicating the association with the different facsimile data.

An image processing system includes a memory unit configured to store an address book to be used for setting a transmission destination of image data, a receiving unit configured to receive the image data, an acquisition unit configured to acquire a name that is registered in the address book in association with information of a transmission source of the image data received by the receiving unit, a setting unit configured to set a folder path for a plurality of hierarchies which includes a folder with the name acquired by the acquisition unit, and a storage unit configured to store the image data received by the receiving unit in a folder indicated by the folder path that is set by the setting unit.

An example embodiment may involve obtaining an ab pixel macro-cell from an image with one or more color planes, and an ab attribute macro-cell. The ab pixel macro-cell may contain 4 non-overlapping mn pixel cells, and the ab attribute macro-cell may contain 4 non-overlapping mn attribute cells. The pixels in the ab pixel macro-cell may be associated with respective color values. The example embodiment may also involve determining 4 attribute output values associated respectively with the 4 non-overlapping mn attribute cells. The example embodiment may further involve determining 1 to 4 color-plane output values for the non-overlapping mn pixel cells, and writing an interleaved representation of the 4 attribute output values and the determined color-plane output values.

A mobile apparatus includes a user interface configured to allow a user to select an image scan apparatus, a communication interface configured to transmit a scan command to the selected image scan apparatus and receive a plurality of image data from the selected image scan apparatus via a streaming method, and a controller configured to generate a scan image using the plurality of image data.

A communication device includes a communication interface, a memory configured to store a setting value, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a command including an object identifier of a management information base to request reading of the setting value corresponding to a value of the object identifier from the memory or writing of the value of the object identifier in the memory, determine whether the object identifier is a specific identifier, determine whether the command has been transmitted from a first device or a second device, and read or write the setting value corresponding to a value of the specific identifier.
