Image processing apparatus, method for controlling image processing apparatus, and recording medium

A method for controlling an image processing apparatus capable of transmitting input image data to an external device, the method comprising:

• displaying a list of information indicating candidates for transmission destinations to which the image data is transmitted on a display unit;
• selecting any one of the information in the list displayed on the display unit;
• determining whether the selected information includes a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in other information in the list, wherein a transmission destination indicated by the selected information is different from a transmission destination indicated by the other information;
• transmitting, when the selected information does not include a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in the other information in the list, the image data to the transmission destination indicated by the selected information, and transmitting, when the selected information includes a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in the other information in the list, information indicating that the image data has not been transmitted to the transmission destination indicated by the selected information;
• and
• transmitting, in response to reception from the external device which has received the information indicating that the image data has not been transmitted of a request to transmit untransmitted image data, the untransmitted image data to the external device.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium recording a computer program for causing an image processing apparatus capable of transmitting input image data to an external device to execute steps of:

• displaying a list of information indicating candidates for transmission destinations to which the image data is transmitted on a display unit;
• selecting any one of the information in the list displayed on the display unit;
• determining whether the selected information includes a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in other information in the list, wherein a transmission destination indicated by the selected information is different from a transmission destination indicated by the other information;
• transmitting, when the selected information does not include a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in the other information in the list, the image data to the transmission destination indicated by the selected information, and transmitting, when the selected information includes a string of characters that is the same as a string of characters in the other information in the list, information indicating that the image data has not been transmitted to the transmission destination indicated by the selected information;
• and
• transmitting, in response to reception from the external device which has received the information indicating that the image data has not been transmitted of a request to transmit untransmitted image data, the untransmitted image data to the external device.
