Removable medium device, medium for controlling removable medium device, and medium for controlling network device

A computer usable medium containing computer readable instructions that cause a computer to control a removable medium device, configured to transmit information stored in a removable medium via a network based on a predetermined communication protocol, to:

• reduce each of a plurality of original images stored in the removable medium;
• generate a reduced screen image in which the plurality of reduced images are arranged;
• generate an image file that includes the reduced screen image generated by the reduced image generating system and image specifying information for specifying an original image in the removable medium for each of the plurality of reduced images arranged in the reduced screen image;
• send the image file generated by the image file generating system via the network;
• and
• in response to receiving image specifying information by which one of the plurality of original images stored in the removable medium is specified, send the original image specified by the received image specifying information.

A computer usable medium containing computer readable instructions for controlling a network device connected with a removable medium device configured to transmit information stored in a removable medium via a network based on a predetermined communication protocol, the network device including a receiving system configured to receive the information stored in the removable medium via the network and a display system configured to display the information received by the receiving system, the instructions causing a computer to control the network device so as to:

• receiving an image file sent by the removable medium device, the image file including a reduced screen image with a plurality of reduced images generated by reducing a plurality of original images stored in the removable medium being arranged therein and image specifying information for specifying an original image in the removable medium for each of the plurality of reduced images;
• extracting the reduced screen image and the image specifying information separately from the image file;
• displaying the reduced screen image extracted from the image file on the display system;
• and
• in response to one of the plurality of reduced images included in the reduced screen image being selected, requesting the removable medium device to send an original image corresponding to the selected reduced image based on the image specifying information.

A removable medium device configured to transmit information stored in a removable medium via a network based on a predetermined communication protocol, the removable medium device being connected with an external device via the network, the removable medium device comprising:

• a pseudo file generating system configured to generate a pseudo file representing reduced images to be generated by reducing a plurality of original images stored in the removable medium in response to a request for a list of files stored in the removable medium issued from the external device;
• a pseudo file sending system configured to send the pseudo file generated by the pseudo file generating system to the external device;
• a reduced image generating system configured to reduce each of a plurality of original images stored in the removable medium and generate a reduced screen image in which the plurality of reduced images are arranged, in response to the pseudo file being selected at a side of the external device;
• an image file generating system configured to generate the image file that includes the reduced screen image generated by the reduced image generating system and image specifying information for specifying an original image in the removable medium for each of the plurality of reduced images arranged in the reduced screen image;
• an image file sending system configured to send the image file generated by the image file generating system to the external device via the network;
• and
• an original image sending system configured to send, to the external device via the network, an original image stored in the removable medium corresponding to a reduced image that has been selected on the reduced screen image displayed at the side of the external device.
