Abstract
If instruction information for a multi-address transmission for performing a FAX transmission to a plurality of destinations is transmitted, and if an acquired transmission result indicates failure of the FAX transmission to at least one of the destinations, a transmission result indicating failure of the multi-address transmission is displayed. After the instruction information for performing the FAX transmission again to a retransmission target destination to which FAX transmission has failed is transmitted to an image forming apparatus, a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information for performing the FAX transmission again to the retransmission target destination is acquired.
Claims13
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a transmission unit configured to transmit, to an image forming apparatus, instruction information for causing the image forming apparatus to perform FAX transmission;
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information from the image forming apparatus;
- and
- a display unit configured to display, if the transmission unit transmits instruction information for a multi-address transmission for performing FAX transmission to a plurality of destinations and if the acquisition unit acquires a transmission result indicating failure of FAX transmission to at least one of the destinations, a summary, in a single record, of a transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating failure of the multi-address transmission, and display, if the transmission unit transmits the instruction information for the multi-address transmission and if the acquisition unit acquires a transmission result indicating success of the FAX transmission to all the destinations, the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating success of the multi-address transmission,
- wherein the transmission unit transmits to the image forming apparatus instruction information for performing FAX transmission again to, among the destinations of the multi-address transmission, a retransmission target destination to which FAX transmission has failed,
- wherein the acquisition unit acquires a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information for performing the FAX transmission again to the retransmission target destination, and
- wherein the information processing apparatus further comprises an update unit configured to update the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission including the retransmission target destination from failure to success if the result of the FAX transmission to the retransmission target destination acquired by the acquisition unit indicates that the FAX transmission by the retransmission has succeeded.
A control method comprising:
- transmitting, to an image forming apparatus, instruction information for causing the image forming apparatus to perform FAX transmission;
- acquiring from the image forming apparatus a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information;
- and
- displaying, if the transmitted instruction information is for multi-address transmission for performing FAX transmission to a plurality of destinations and if the acquired transmission result indicates failure of FAX transmission to at least one of the destinations, a summary, in a single record, of a transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating failure of the multi-address transmission, and displaying, if the transmitting transmits the instruction information for the multi-address transmission and if the acquiring acquires a transmission result indicating success of the FAX transmission to all the destinations, the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating success of the multi-address transmission,
- wherein the transmitting the instruction information for performing FAX transmission again to, among the destination of the multi-address transmission, a retransmission target destination to which FAX transmission has failed,
- wherein the acquiring acquires a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information for performing the FAX transmission again to the retransmission target destination, and
- wherein the control method further comprises updating the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission including the retransmission target destination from failure to success if the result of the FAX transmission to the retransmission target destination acquired by the acquiring indicates that the FAX transmission by the retransmission has succeeded.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program for causing a computer to perform a method comprising the steps of:
- transmitting, to an image forming apparatus, instruction information for causing the image forming apparatus to perform FAX transmission;
- acquiring from the image forming apparatus a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information;
- and
- displaying, if the transmitted instruction information is for multi-address transmission for performing FAX transmission to a plurality of destinations and if the acquired transmission result indicates failure of FAX transmission to at least one of the destinations, a summary, in a single record, of a transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating failure of the multi-address transmission, and displaying, if the transmitting transmits the instruction information for the multi-address transmission and if the acquiring acquires a transmission result indicating success of the FAX transmission to all the destinations, the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission indicating success of the multi-address transmission,
- wherein the transmitting the instruction information for performing FAX transmission again to, among the destination of the multi-address transmission, a retransmission target destination to which FAX transmission has failed,
- wherein the acquiring acquires a result of the FAX transmission performed based on the instruction information for performing the FAX transmission again to the retransmission target destination, and
- wherein the control method further comprises updating the summary, in the single record, of the transmission result of the multi-address transmission including the retransmission target destination from failure to success if the result of the FAX transmission to the retransmission target destination acquired by the acquiring indicates that the FAX transmission by the retransmission has succeeded.
