Abstract
When operation screen data sent from a Web server can be received, an image processing apparatus displays an operation screen based on the operation screen data on an operation unit. On the other hand, when operation screen data cannot be received due to a communication error, the image processing apparatus displays a substitute operation screen that allows it use of at least one of its image processing functions on the operation unit.
Claims5
An image processing apparatus configured to execute at least one image processing function, comprising:
- a request unit configured to request a Web server to send operation screen data;
- and
- a display control unit configured to receive the operation screen data which is sent from the Web server in response to the request from said request unit, and to display an operation screen based on the operation screen data on an operation unit,
- wherein, when said display control unit fails to receive the operation screen data, said display control unit displays a substitute operation screen that allows to instruct use of the at least one image processing function on the operation unit.
A control method of an image processing apparatus configured to execute at least one image processing function, comprising the steps of:
- requesting a Web server to send operation screen data;
- and
- receiving the operation screen data which is sent from the Web server in response to the request, and displaying an operation screen based on the operation screen data on an operation unit,
- wherein, when the operation screen data is failed to receive, a substitute operation screen that allows to instruct use of the at least one image processing function is displayed on the operation unit.
