<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for processing data which can perform a cipher communication by transmitting printing data to a destination by a user by informing information being the destination to the user when job data are transmitted by utilizing the cipher communication in response to a request of performing the cipher communication from the user. <P>SOLUTION: The apparatus for processing the data determines whether an encryption communication is required or not in the print request transmitted from a host computer, and transmits a destination identifier showing the destination used for the encryption communication when the encryption communication is requested. If the printing data are transmitted in which the designation identifier of the encryption communication is designated, the encrypted printing data are decoded. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
