Image processing apparatus, information processing system, method of controlling the same, and storage medium

摘要

An image processing apparatus which is capable of performing scanning of an original, using a plurality of scan settings stored in an information processing apparatus, without necessitating a dedicated server or a complicated user operation before execution of the scanning. An image processing apparatus (MFP) receives and displays host PC names and scan setting names transmitted from host PCs on a display section. The MFP finalizes a host PC name selected by a user from the host PC names and one of scan setting names associated with the finalized host PC name, which is selected by the user. The MFP sends a scan execution instruction to the host PC to instruct the same to execute scanning using a scan setting associated with the finalized scan setting name.

主权项

1. An image processing system that includes an image processing apparatus an information processing apparatus, comprising: the information processing apparatus comprising:
a registering unit configured to register a first set of scan setting items in association with a first scan setting identifier, and register a second set of scan setting items in association with a second setting identifier; a first reception unit configured to receive the first scan setting identifier or the second scan setting identifier transmitted from the image processing apparatus; and a first transmission unit configured to transmit, when the first reception unit receives the first scan setting identifier, a scan start instruction including the first set of scan setting items registered in association with the first scan setting identifier to the image processing apparatus, and transmit, when the first reception unit receives the second scan setting identifier, a scan start instruction including the second set of scan setting items registered in association with the second scan setting identifier to the image processing apparatus, and the image processing apparatus comprising: a display control unit configured to display the first scan setting identifier and the second scan setting identifier; a second transmission unit configured to transmit, when the first scan setting identifier displayed by said display control unit is selected, the first scan setting identifier to the information processing apparatus, and transmit, when the second scan setting identifier displayed by said display control unit is selected, the second scan setting identifier to the information processing apparatus; a second reception unit configured to receive the scan start instruction transmitted from the information processing apparatus by the first transmitting unit in response to the transmission of the first scan setting identifier or the second scan setting identifier; a scanning unit configured to scan an image on an original in accordance with the first set of scan setting items or the second set of scan setting items included in the scan start instruction received by said second reception unit; and a third transmission unit configured to transmit image data scanned from the original by the scanning unit to the information processing apparatus.
