<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a system for automatically designating an image forming apparatus to be required to perform prossing while preventing designation of an unauthorized image forming apparatus when a client terminal requires processing of the image forming apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: This information processor functioning as the client terminal for the image forming apparatus is provided with a search means for searching the image forming apparatus to be required to perform processing, an authentication request means requesting authentication for use of the image forming apparatus, which is detected by the search, by a user from the image forming apparatus or an authentication server, and a processing request means requiring processing from the image forming apparatus when the image forming apparatus, for which authentication is required after it is detected by the search, is authorized. The search means searches another image forming apparatus to be required to perform processing when the image forming apparatus, for which authentication is required after it is detected by search, is not authorized. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
