Data processing system, storage device and computer program

摘要

A data processing device, such as a facsimile machine or a printer, sends setting information necessary for processing data to a storage device for a back-up purpose, etc., and the storage device stores the setting information of the data processing device. The storage device classifies the data processing device according to whether or not the data processing device has a data protection function for protecting data to be processed, and stores the setting information in association with a type in which the data processing device is classified. When sending the setting information to a data processing device, the storage device sends the setting information corresponding to the type in which the data processing device as a recipient is classified.
