A communication apparatus includes a checking unit, a data transmitting unit, and a process history transmitting unit. The checking unit communicates with each of multiple destinations for data and checks whether or not the data is capable of being written at the destination. The data transmitting unit transmits the data to the destination on which the checking unit has performed the checking operation. The process history transmitting unit transmits a process history about the data, to the destination to which the data transmitting unit transmits the data.

An information processing apparatus executes, for image data to be printed by a printing device, image processing corresponding to a content of the image data; transmits, to the printing device, image data obtained after executing the image processing; acquires, before executing the image processing, a first transfer rate with respect to the printing device and a requested transfer rate required by a print operation of a print unit of the printing device; attempts image processing for the image data; and acquires, based on the first transfer rate and information of image data obtained after the attempt, a second transfer rate required by transmission, to the printing device, of the image data obtained after the attempt and the print operation of the print unit.

A selection processing portion is configured to select, as one or a plurality of events to be reported, one or a plurality of candidate events, in accordance with user operation, from among the preset plurality of candidate events. A count processing portion is configured to individually count a frequency of occurrences of each of the events to be reported. An output processing portion is configured to cause, when a count result by the count processing portion has met a preset condition, printing on a sheet and outputting of a report that includes an occurrence history of at least one of the events to be reported.

System and method for displaying an encoded standard-formatted image with information including, but not limited to, geospatial information. This information, possibly in mark-up language format, can be quickly accessed and used to modify the image to which it is appended, or it can be ignored because the image itself remains unchanged.

A facsimile communication device includes circuitry to count, for each of one or more facsimile numbers, at least one of the number of facsimile transmission times and the number of output times that is stored in association with a corresponding one of the one or more facsimile numbers. The circuitry determines whether registration of a specified facsimile number for unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed, based on at least one of the number of facsimile transmission times associated with the specified facsimile number and the number of output times associated with the specified facsimile number. The specified facsimile number is included in the one or more facsimile numbers. The circuitry registers the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile in response to determining that the registration of the specified facsimile number for the unwanted facsimile is reasonable to be performed.

A transmit destination changing apparatus includes an acquiring unit that acquires track record information, the track record information indicating a track record of printing of print data transmitted from a print data transmitting apparatus to a first printer among multiple printers, the track record information indicating a track record of printing performed on each of the plural printers in response to a print request, and an output unit that outputs change instruction information if the track record information indicates that print data transmitted to the first printer from the print data transmitting apparatus is likely to be printed on a second printer among the multiple printers in response to a print request, the change instruction information instructing that the destination of the print data be changed to cause the print data to be transmitted to the second printer from the print data transmitting apparatus.

A communication apparatus that enables to refer to transmission history information in response to settings of use proprieties for transmission methods. A recording unit records a history of a transmission job executed by the communication apparatus as transmission history information that includes a transmitting destination at least. A setting unit sets a use propriety of each of the transmission methods. A determination unit determines whether reference to the transmission history information is permitted in response to the use propriety of each of the transmission methods set by the setting unit and the transmitting destination included in the transmission history information, when a user instructs to refer to the transmission history information.

A mechanism for enabling identification of an execution history of what type of job a generated file is from a filename of the file. The mechanism includes generating the file based on the execution history of the job, and generating the filename of the file based on the type of the job.

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 receiving unit, an executing unit, a log information generating unit, a holding unit, and a transmitting unit. The receiving unit receives and installs one or more program information items for executing a preset process. The executing unit executes the preset process on the basis of at least one of the installed one or more program information items. The log information generating unit generates log information regarding the preset process based on the one or more program information items executed by the executing unit. The holding unit holds a transmission destination of the log information in association with each of the one or more program information items. The transmitting unit transmits the log information to the transmission destination associated with the executed one or more program information items.
