Abstract
An information processing apparatus determines permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image. The information processing apparatus includes a CPU having a control unit that stores information concerning the target image, information based on the two-dimensional code including information indicating the permission of the duplication of the target image, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a copy log in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
Claims17
An information processing apparatus for determining permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a control unit configured to store information concerning the target image, information based on the two-dimensional code including information indicating the permission to duplicate the target image, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
An information processing apparatus for determining permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a control unit configured to store information indicating the target image, information included in the two-dimensional code, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a determining unit configured to determine whether a two-dimensional code is included in a target image to be duplicated;
- and
- a control unit configured to cause a print unit to duplicate the target image and to store information indicating the target image, information included in the two-dimensional code, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the determining unit determines that the two-dimensional code is included in the target image, and configured to cause the print unit not to duplicate the target image if the determining unit determines that the two-dimensional code is not included in the target image.
A method for an information processing apparatus to determine permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image, the method comprising:
- storing information concerning the target image, information based on the two-dimensional code including information indicating the permission of the duplication of the target image, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
A method for an information processing apparatus to determine permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image, the method comprising:
- storing information indicating the target image, information included in the two-dimensional code, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
A method comprising:
- determining whether a two-dimensional code is included in a target image to be duplicated;
- causing a print unit to duplicate the target image and storing information indicating the target image, information included in the two-dimensional code, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the determining unit determines that the two-dimensional code is included in the target image;
- and
- causing the print unit not to duplicate the target image if the determining unit determines that the two-dimensional code is not included in the target image.
A computer-readable medium causing a computer to execute a method for an information processing apparatus to determine permission to duplicate a target image based on a two-dimensional code included in the target image, the method comprising:
- storing information concerning the target image, information based on the two-dimensional code including information indicating the permission of the duplication of the target image, and information indicating a user who has issued an instruction to duplicate the target image in a storage unit in association with each other if the two-dimensional code is included in the target image.
