次に、本実施の形態の作用を説明する。   Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described.

図５には、画像処理装置１０が実行する、データをサーバに格納するためのサーバ格納処理プログラムのフローチャートが示されている。本サーバ格納処理プログラムは、画像処理装置１０における表示装置２６の初期画面において表示された図示しない、データをサーバに格納することを指示するサーバ格納ボタンがオンされた時にスタートする。   FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of a server storage processing program for storing data in the server, which is executed by the image processing apparatus 10. The server storage processing program starts when a server storage button (not shown) that is displayed on the initial screen of the display device 26 in the image processing apparatus 10 and that instructs to store data in the server is turned on.

本サーバ格納処理プログラムがスタートすると、ステップ５２で、図７（Ａ）に示す、サーバのネットワーク上のアドレスであるＵＲＬを入力するためのサーバ格納画面（サーバドレス入力画面）を表示し、ユーザにより、該ＵＲＬが入力されるのを待つ。   When the server storage processing program is started, a server storage screen (server address input screen) for inputting a URL, which is an address on the server network, shown in FIG. And wait for the URL to be input.

ユーザによりＵＲＬが入力されると、ステップ５４で、データ送信に関する情報を設定するためのユーザインタフェースとしてのアップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）の送信を、入力されたＵＲＬで指定されるサーバ１４にアクセスして要求する。もしくは、前記した送信先毎に用意されたアップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）を管理する図示しない管理サーバを更に設け、入力されたＵＲＬで指定される送信先サーバ１４のために用意されたアップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）をこの管理サーバにアクセスして要求するようにしてもよい。   When the URL is input by the user, in step 54, the upload screen data (HTML) as a user interface for setting information related to data transmission is transmitted to the server 14 specified by the input URL. Request. Alternatively, a management server (not shown) for managing the upload screen data (HTML) prepared for each transmission destination described above is further provided, and the upload screen data (for the transmission destination server 14 specified by the input URL) ( HTML) may be requested by accessing the management server.

アップロード画面データの送信が要求されたサーバ１４は、アップロード画面データを画像処理装置１０に送信する。これによりステップ５６のアップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）を受信したか否かの判断が肯定判定となって、ステップ５８で、受信したアップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）に基づいて、図７（Ｂ）に示すアップロード画面を表示する。   The server 14 requested to transmit the upload screen data transmits the upload screen data to the image processing apparatus 10. As a result, the determination as to whether or not the upload screen data (HTML) has been received in step 56 is affirmative, and in step 58, the upload shown in FIG. Display the screen.

図８には、アップロード画面データ（ＨＴＭＬ）の一例が示されている。図７（Ｂ）に示すように、アップロード画面は、アップロードするデータを指定するためのアップロードデータ指定画面の表示を指示するFromボタンと、アップロードを指示するための、指示手段としての登録ボタンと、取り消しを指示する取消ボタンと、を備えている。   FIG. 8 shows an example of upload screen data (HTML). As shown in FIG. 7B, the upload screen includes a From button for instructing display of an upload data designation screen for designating data to be uploaded, a registration button as an instruction means for instructing upload, And a cancel button for instructing cancellation.

次のステップ６０で、Fromボタンがオンされたか否かを判断し、Fromボタンがオンされたと判断された場合、ステップ６２で、図７（Ｃ）に示すアップロードデータ指定画面を表示する。   In the next step 60, it is determined whether or not the From button has been turned on. If it is determined that the From button has been turned on, the upload data designation screen shown in FIG. 7C is displayed in step 62.

図７（Ｃ）に示すように、アップロードデータ指定画面は、アップロードするデータとして、本実施の形態では、イメージスキャナのスキャンデータを指示するためのイメージスキャナボタン、ジョブログのデータを指示するためのジョブログボタン、マシン構成情報を指示するためのマシン構成情報ボタン、親展ボックス内のデータを指示するための親展ボックスボタンを備えている。   As shown in FIG. 7C, the upload data designation screen displays image scanner buttons for instructing image scanner scan data and job log data as data to be uploaded in the present embodiment. A job log button, a machine configuration information button for instructing machine configuration information, and a confidential box button for instructing data in the confidential box are provided.

ステップ６４で、イメージスキャナボタン、ジョブログボタン、マシン構成情報ボタン、親展ボックスボタンの何れかがオンされたか否かを判断することにより、アップロードデータが指定されたか否かを判断する。   In step 64, it is determined whether upload data is specified by determining whether any of the image scanner button, job log button, machine configuration information button, and confidential box button is turned on.

アップロードデータが指定されたと判断された場合、ステップ６６で、アップロードデータのファイル名を作成する。例えば、ImageScanner-02-02-22-0.jpgなどである。   If it is determined that upload data has been designated, a file name of the upload data is created in step 66. For example, ImageScanner-02-02-22-0.jpg.

ここで、例えば、イメージスキャナボタンがオンされた場合には、ステップ６８で、図７（Ｄ）に示すように、イメージスキャナをアップロード画面に表示し、登録ボタンがオンされると、アップロードの作成・送信処理を実行する。   Here, for example, when the image scanner button is turned on, in step 68, as shown in FIG. 7D, the image scanner is displayed on the upload screen, and when the registration button is turned on, the upload is created.・ Transmission processing is executed.

図６には、ステップ６８のアップロードの作成・送信処理プログラムのフローチャートが示されている。なお、本例では、上記のように、イメージスキャナボタンがオンされた場合を例にとり説明する。   FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of the upload creation / transmission processing program in step 68.

If it is determined that there is no image data in the image scanner 12, the image data is read in step 74, and the read image data in step 76. Is stored in the image memory 24 and the process returns to step 72. In this case, affirmative determination is made in step 72, and in step 78, uploading of the image data temporarily stored in the image memory 24 to the server 14 by HTTP based on the upload screen is started. The image data is transmitted, and in step 82, the image data in the image memory 24 is deleted. In step 72, it is not determined whether or not there is image data in the image scanner 12, and image data is always read (step 74), read other image data is stored (step 76), and uploading is started (step 78). You may make it control to.

このように、画像処理装置からサーバに、サーバから受信した送信先に応じたアップロード画面データに従ってデータの入力と送信の指示が一連の操作で処理できるので、ユーザ操作の負担を軽減することができる。   In this way, data input and transmission instructions can be processed from the image processing apparatus to the server in accordance with the upload screen data corresponding to the transmission destination received from the server through a series of operations, so that the burden on the user operation can be reduced. .
