An information processing apparatus includes: a processor configured to transfer data of a received facsimile by referring to correspondence information in which a correspondence between a telephone number and identification information is registered, the identification information identifying a partner of communication by facsimile from or to the telephone number; and in a case where a facsimile transmission request has been received from a requester and a correspondence between identification information identifying the requester and a telephone number of a destination included in the facsimile transmission request is not registered in the correspondence information, additionally register the correspondence between the identification information and the telephone number in the correspondence information.

An image processing apparatus includes a registration unit configured to register a destination of file transmission, a selection unit configured to select whether to require a user to input, at time of transmission, authentication information required for the file transmission for each destination registered by the registration unit, a transfer unit configured to transfer received image data, and a control unit configured to prevent a destination for which it is selected to require the user to input the authentication information at time of transmission from being set as a transfer destination of the image data.

A method of transmitting data from an image forming apparatus, the method including: receiving identification information of a destination of the data; determining whether to transmit the data to the destination corresponding to the received identification information based on a security policy of the image forming apparatus; and transmitting the data to the destination in response to the destination being determined to be a destination to where the data is allowed to be transmitted, based on the security policy.

An electronic apparatus includes circuitry that selects at least one destination information set for transmission from a plurality of address books each holding a plurality of destination information sets. In response to reception of a notification of a change in one of the plurality of address books, the circuitry determines whether the selected at least one destination information set includes a destination information set selected from the one of the plurality of address books corresponding to the notification of the change. Based on a determination that the selected at least one destination information set includes the destination information set selected from the one of the plurality of address books corresponding to the notification of the change, the circuitry resets the selected at least one destination information set.

A communication apparatus includes: a transmitting unit that is capable of transmitting data to a designated destination through any of plural communication interfaces; a storage unit in which plural pieces of destination information are stored; and a registration unit that registers a communication interface used for data transmission in advance for each of the plural pieces of destination information stored in the storage unit.

An information acquisition method includes steps of selecting, transmitting, and determining. The selecting step is a step of selecting one function demanding an input of a destination. The transmitting step is a step of transmitting information indicating one or more destinations from a mobile terminal to a multifunction device. The determining step is a step of determining at least one destination corresponding to the one function.

The image processing apparatus performs a communication process targeting an external apparatus via a network. When performing a communication process, the image processing apparatus determines whether or not the external apparatus which is a target of the communication process is registered in a destination list in which apparatuses corresponding to a predetermined condition are registered. In accordance with the timeout period determined based on the determination result, the image processing apparatus determines that a timeout has occurred in the communication process. The image processing apparatus updates the destination list according to the determination result of the occurrence of the timeout and the determination result as to whether or not the external apparatus is registered in the destination list. Thereby, it is possible to provide an image processing apparatus capable of quickly executing communication process because the transmission/reception buffer is less likely to run out.

A communication apparatus includes: a transmitting unit that is capable of transmitting data to a designated destination through any of plural communication interfaces; a storage unit in which plural pieces of destination information are stored; and a registration unit that registers a communication interface used for data transmission in advance for each of the plural pieces of destination information stored in the storage unit.
