An information forwarding device includes a forwarding unit, a reception unit, and a control unit. The forwarding unit forwards information stored in a predetermined folder to a preset destination. The reception unit receives an edit to a destination stored in advance. In a case in which the reception unit receives an edit to a destination set as a forwarding destination of the forwarding by the forwarding unit, the control unit executes control to defer of the forwarding of the information by the forwarding unit to the destination after the edit until a predetermined condition is satisfied.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to display a screen on which plural destination candidates and a GUI component that receives an instruction to end selection are displayed, receive the selection of the destination from plural destination candidates displayed on the screen, end the display of the screen in a case where the instruction to end the selection is received by the GUI component, and end the display of the screen even though the instruction to end the selection is not received by the GUI component, when a single or plural selected destinations satisfy a predetermined condition.

An information processing system including at least one input-output device and performing a sequence of processes using electronic data that include image data and print data includes a hardware processor that executes a program so as to implement: an input-output service supply unit configured to perform a collaboration process of causing a hardware computer system implementing an external storage service to collaborate with the input-output device, a request data generation unit configured to generate request data bound for the input-output service supply unit based on metadata, and a request unit configured to request the input-output service supply unit to perform the collaboration process using the request data.

A server may establish a session with a function execution device via the Internet, the session being for executing server-push communication, the function execution device being capable of executing at least a facsimile function, receive first image data from a terminal device via the Internet, and in a case where the first image data is received from the terminal device, send facsimile request information to the function execution device via the Internet by using the session, the facsimile request information being for requesting a facsimile transmission of an image corresponding to the first image data.

When an image forming apparatus receives a data from a FAX, the image forming apparatus posts, to a chat service, a message indicating that the data is received from the FAX. If an F-code is set for the data received from the FAX, the image forming apparatus posts, to the chat service, a message that requires inputting a password, and posts, to the chat service, a message indicating the content of the received data based on the password received via the chat service.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, if an image forming apparatus receives a FAX data, the image forming apparatus posts a message to a chat service indicating that the FAX data has been received, and according to a setting of a forwarding destination of FAX data and scheduled forwarding time, the image forming apparatus posts a message indicating the scheduled forwarding time of the received FAX data. If the image forming apparatus receives an instruction related to forwarding the received FAX data (canceling, changing scheduled time, changing forwarding destination) via the chat service, the image forming apparatus performs processing related to the forwarding the received FAX data (canceling to forward processing, changing scheduled time processing, changing forwarding destination processing) based on the instruction.

An image processing apparatus including a fax function and a communication function includes at least one memory storing instructions, and at least one processor executing the instructions causing the image forming apparatus to set a first setting for transfer of data in a case where the data is received using the fax function, perform a transfer process of transferring the data received using the fax function based on the first setting, and transmit, using the communication function, information pertaining to the transfer process to an external apparatus that provides a message sharing service.

An image forming apparatus includes a processor configured to create a preview image of an image created by executing a job; store image data of the created preview image in a memory; create an information code representing a storage area of the memory where the image data is stored; and display the information code created by the processor on a display.

The present invention provides an image reading apparatus including: a scanner that scans originals by a batch-scan that are placed on an original table; an original reading circuitry that reads an image of each of the scanned originals, and control circuitry, wherein the control circuitry executes a continuous multi-crop process according to a selection by a user, and when the continuous multi-crop process is executed, the control circuitry displays on the display one operation key that receives an instruction to start the next scan and another operation key that receives an instruction to end the reading respectively every time each batch-scan is executed to enable the batch-scan to be repeatedly executed until receiving the instruction to end the reading, and handles the images of the originals read by the repeated batch-scans as a series of image data.

An image forming apparatus receives a FAX, a FAX processor performs a FAX reception processing, and acquires reception information (step S11). An information generator determines whether there is reception notification setting information (step S12). If there is a notification setting, the information generator proceeds to step S13, and generates reception notification information. An information notification processor transmits the reception information to a chat server via a network on the basis of the notification setting information (step S14). Next, the information notification processor determines reception notification setting information 124 related to image transfer (step S15). If image transfer is enabled, the information notification processor proceeds to step S16, performs an image transfer process, generates document image information, and transmits same to the chat server. The chat server transmits the reception notification information and the document image information to a terminal apparatus as a chat message.
