Abstract
An image processing apparatus has an operation panel, a reading portion, and a controller. The operation panel accepts, from a registered user, registration of an authorized user. The controller sets as a candidate a registered user who has registered a job-requesting user as an authorized user, makes the operation panel accept designation of a registered user set as a candidate, recognizes a designated registered user as a target user, and generates output data of a filled sheet filled with the target user's personal information.
Claims6
An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- an operation panel which accepts a request for an automatic filling job;
- a reading portion which, when the automatic filling job is executed, reads a sheet with an entry field unfilled;
- and
- a controller which generates, from read data obtained as a result of the reading portion reading the sheet, output data of a filled sheet with the entry field filled with registered personal information,
- wherein
- the operation panel accepts, from a registered user who has registered the personal information, registration of an authorized user whom the registered user permits to access the registered user's own personal information, and
- when the automatic filling job is executed,
- the controller recognizes a user currently logged in on the image processing apparatus as a job-requesting user who has requested the automatic filling job,
- the controller sets as a candidate the registered user who has registered the job-requesting user as the authorized user,
- the controller makes the operation panel accept designation of one of the registered user set as the candidate and recognizes the designated registered user as a target user,
- the controller generates the output data of the filled sheet with the entry field filled with the target user's personal information,
- the controller recognizes
- a group to which the job-requesting user belongs and
- a role in which the job-requesting user is, and
- when the job-requesting user is in a role of a manager of the group to which the job-requesting belongs, the controller sets as the candidates all the registered users who belong to the same group as the job-requesting user irrespective of whether the job-requesting user is registered as the authorized user.
