An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires a processed image obtained through image processing, and a generation unit that generates a synthesis image obtained by synthesizing an evidence image, which is an image becoming an evidence of the image processing and including at least information on a fee required for the image processing, with a reduction image obtained by reducing the processed image.

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.

An information processing apparatus includes a memory that stores log information on a process serving as a monitoring target and performed in past, a generating unit that generates, by using the log information, periodicity information that identifies a time period within which the process is periodically executed, and a notifying unit that, if the process has not been executed within the time period as scheduled in accordance with the periodicity information generated by the generating unit, notifies that the process has not been executed.

An image processing apparatus includes an acceptance unit configured to accept an input of user information, an acquisition unit configured to acquire an e-mail address of a user identified based on the user information accepted by the acceptance unit, a first setting unit configured to set a destination of a first e-mail transmitted with an attachment of image data, a second setting unit configured to set a destination of a second e-mail for making notification of completion of transmission of the first e-mail, and a control unit configured to perform control such that a destination of the first e-mail is restricted to the e-mail address acquired by the acquisition unit, but a destination of the second e-mail is not restricted to the e-mail address acquired by the acquisition unit.

This disclosure is directed to systems and methods for the delivery and maintenance of faxes where the faxes may remain at a faxing system for a minimal amount of time. The faxing system may send a queued fax to a connector responsive to a request from the connector to pull or retrieve a fax. The connector is configured to send a release notification to the faxing system after the fax is received. The faxing system is configured to delete the queued fax as soon as confirmation of the delivery of the fax can be determined or when an expiration time has elapsed.

An information processing apparatus that positively notifies a notification destination of information to be notified even if a communication protocol is changed before notifying storage of stored data. A notification setting processing section of a document storage notification application sets a protocol for accessing the stored document data from a computer via a network. When document data is stored in a HDD, a mail transmission processing section notifies the computer of storage location information on the document data for accessing the data according to the set protocol. If the set protocol is changed before the storage location information is notified to the computer, a control section causes the mail transmission processing section to notify the computer of storage location information for causing the document data to be accessed using the changed protocol.

A server system transmits, in the case of holding a job for a processing apparatus at the time when connection to the processing apparatus has been established, a notification message indicating an occurrence of the job to the processing apparatus through the connection-established communication even in the case where no inquiry associated with the job is made from the processing apparatus through the connection-established communication.

An image forming apparatus includes a reader that reads a document to generate image data, a user interface that accepts an instruction from a user, a memory device that stores instructions, and a processor that executes the instructions stored in the memory device. The instructions are executed to transmit the generated image data, set a setting regarding an output of a transmission result of transmission of the image data based on an instruction for transmitting before the user interface accepts the instruction for transmitting, and control the output of the transmission result, based on the setting, in the transmission of the image data in accordance with the instruction for transmitting.
