Abstract
A data processing apparatus that received destination information showing a data transfer destination through a network provides a destination ID as identification information for the destination information, and stores the destination ID together with the destination information. The user specifies the provided destination ID and instructs execution of processing at the date processing apparatus. The data processing apparatus transfers data obtained by executing the processing to a transfer destination corresponding to the specified destination ID.
Claims15
A data processing apparatus capable of transferring data obtained by execution of processing to a terminal on a network, comprising:
- an input unit for a user to input information;
- a reception unit which receives destination information showing a data transfer destination through the network;
- a provision unit which provides identification information with respect to the destination information received by the reception unit;
- a storage unit which stores the destination information in association with the identification information;
- a sending unit which sends the identification information to a terminal that is a source of the destination information;
- an execution unit which executes the processing;
- and
- a transfer unit which transfers data obtained by execution of the processing to the transfer destination based on the destination information that corresponds to identification information input through the input unit when the identification information input through the input unit is stored in the storage unit.
An information processing terminal which can communicate with data processing apparatuses capable of transferring data obtained by execution of processing to a terminal on a network, comprising:
- a first display control unit which causes a selection screen that allows a user to select one of the data processing apparatuses present on the network to be displayed on a display device;
- a sending unit which sends destination information which shows a transfer destination of data to a data processing apparatus selected through the selection screen;
- a reception unit which receives identification information sent from the selected data processing apparatus in response to the destination information;
- and
- a second display control unit which displays a screen which notifies the identification information to a user on the display device.
A data processing system comprising a network, at least one information processing terminal which is provided on the network, and at least one data processing apparatus which is capable of transferring data obtained by execution of processing to the at least one information processing terminal, wherein,
- the data processing apparatus comprises:
- an input unit for a user to input information;
- a reception unit which receives destination information showing a data transfer destination through the network;
- a provision unit which provides identification information with respect to the destination information received by the reception unit;
- a storage unit which stores the destination information in association with the identification information;
- a sending unit which sends the identification information to a terminal that sends the destination information;
- an execution unit which executes the processing;
- and
- a transfer unit which transfer data obtained by execution of the processing based on the destination information that corresponds to identification information input through the input unit when the identification information input through the input unit is stored in the storage unit;
- and wherein
- the information processing terminal comprises:
- a first display control unit which causes a selection screen that allows a user to select the at least one data processing apparatus to be displayed on a display device;
- a sending unit which sends destination information which shows a transfer destination of data to a data processing apparatus selected through the selection screen;
- a reception unit which receives identification information sent from the selected data processing apparatus in response to the destination information;
- and
- a second display control unit which displays a screen which notifies the identification information to a user on the display device.
