Abstract
An image transmitting apparatus includes a scanner that reads an original, a memory that stores programs, and a processor that executes the programs. The programs are executed to identify destination information of a user for the image transmitting apparatus, and transmit image data corresponding to the read original using the identified destination information in a case where the user does not designate a destination.
Claims5
An image transmitting apparatus comprising:
- a display;
- a scanner that reads an original;
- a start key that receives an instruction to start reading the original by the scanner;
- a memory that stores programs;
- and
- a processor that executes the programs to:
- (1) identify a user;
- (2) automatically acquire a mail address having been registered in advance for the identified user;
- and
- (3) determine whether one or more destinations has been designated;
- and
- (4) transmit, in a case where the instruction to start reading the original by the scanner is received via the start key without a user's designation operation of destination information, image data corresponding to the read original using the acquired mail address as the destination information,
- wherein the processor performs control to transmit, in a case where a designation of destination information including a mail address input by the identified user and not including the acquired mail address is performed, the image data using the destination information designated by the user without using the acquired mail address.
