Description

本発明の目的は、印刷データにかかる印刷データ識別情報の内容の表示を制御することで、機密情報の漏えいのリスクを軽減する仕組みを提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism that reduces the risk of leakage of confidential information by controlling the display of the contents of print data identification information relating to print data .

本発明の目的を達成するために、印刷データを特定するための印刷データ識別情報と、該印刷データの印刷ができるユーザのユーザ識別情報とを記憶する印刷データ記憶装置と通信可能な、画像処理装置であって、ユーザを特定するための認証情報を受け付ける認証情報受付手段と、前記認証情報受付手段により受け付けた認証情報により得られるユーザ識別情報を用いて、前記印刷データ記憶装置から当該ユーザが印刷できる印刷データの印刷データ識別情報を含む印刷データ一覧情報を取得する一覧情報取得手段と、ユーザが前記一覧情報取得手段により取得された印刷データ一覧情報に含まれる印刷データ識別情報の内容を識別できないように、前記印刷データ一覧情報を表示する表示手段とを備え、前記表示手段は、前記印刷データ識別情報の内容を識別できないように前記印刷データ一覧情報を表示している状態で、前記認証情報受付手段により受け付けた認証情報を再度受け付けた場合に、ユーザが前記印刷データ識別情報の内容を識別できるように前記印刷データ識別情報を表示することを特徴とする。 In order to achieve the object of the present invention , image processing that can communicate with a print data storage device that stores print data identification information for specifying print data and user identification information of a user who can print the print data An authentication information receiving unit that receives authentication information for specifying a user, and user identification information obtained from the authentication information received by the authentication information receiving unit. A list information acquisition unit that acquires print data list information including print data identification information of print data that can be printed, and a user identifies the contents of the print data identification information included in the print data list information acquired by the list information acquisition unit Display means for displaying the print data list information, so that the display means includes the print data The user identifies the contents of the print data identification information when the authentication information received by the authentication information receiving means is received again while the print data list information is displayed so that the contents of the other information cannot be identified. The print data identification information is displayed as possible.

また、前記表示手段は、印刷データ一覧情報を表示して印刷指示する機能と異なる機能から印刷データ一覧情報を表示して印刷指示する機能へ遷移し、印刷データ一覧情報を表示する場合に、ユーザが前記印刷データ識別情報の内容を識別できないように表示することを特徴とする。 Further, the display means changes from a function different from the function of displaying print data list information and instructing printing to a function of displaying print data list information and instructing printing, and displays the print data list information. Is displayed so that the contents of the print data identification information cannot be identified .

また、前記表示手段は、所定時間操作がない場合に、ユーザが前記印刷データ識別情報の内容を識別できないように表示することを特徴とする。 Further, the display means displays so that the user cannot identify the contents of the print data identification information when there is no operation for a predetermined time .

また、前記表示手段により表示した印刷データの一覧から指定された印刷データの印刷出力指示を前記印刷データ記憶装置に送信する印刷出力指示手段を更に備え、前記表示手段は、前記印刷出力指示手段により印刷出力指示がされる場合に、前記認証情報の入力を促す表示をすることを特徴とする。 In addition, it further comprises print output instruction means for transmitting a print output instruction for the print data designated from the list of print data displayed by the display means to the print data storage device, and the display means is configured by the print output instruction means. When a print output instruction is given, a display prompting input of the authentication information is provided.

また、前記印刷データ一覧情報は、再度の認証情報が必要である印刷データか否かを示す要否情報を含み、ユーザによって指定された印刷データが、再度の認証情報が必要である印刷データである場合に、ログインしたユーザに対して再度の認証情報を要求する再要求手段を更に備え、前記印刷出力指示手段は、ユーザによって指定された印刷データが、再度の認証情報が必要でない印刷データである場合、および、前記再要求手段に従って、再度の認証情報を受け付けた場合に、前記指定された印刷データの印刷出力指示を前記印刷データ記憶装置に送信することを特徴とする。 In addition, the print data list information includes necessity information indicating whether or not the print data needs re-authentication information, and the print data designated by the user is print data that requires re-authentication information. In some cases, the information processing apparatus further includes re-requesting means for requesting re-authentication information to a logged-in user, wherein the print output instruction means includes print data designated by the user as print data that does not require re-authentication information. In some cases, and when re-authentication information is accepted according to the re-request means, a print output instruction for the designated print data is transmitted to the print data storage device .

また、前記表示手段は、再度の認証情報が必要である印刷データの一覧を表示する第１の表示タブと、再度の認証情報が必要でない印刷データの一覧を表示する第２の表示タブを表示し、前記認証情報受付手段は、前記第２の表示タブから前記第１の表示タブに切り換えられた場合に、再度の認証情報を受け付けることを特徴とする。 The display means displays a first display tab that displays a list of print data that requires re-authentication information and a second display tab that displays a list of print data that does not require re-authentication information. The authentication information receiving means receives the authentication information again when the second display tab is switched to the first display tab .

また、前記印刷データ記憶装置は、画像処理装置と別筐体であることを特徴とする。 The print data storage device is a separate housing from the image processing device .

本発明によれば、印刷データにかかる印刷データ識別情報の内容の表示を制御することで、機密情報の漏えいのリスクを軽減することができる。
According to the present invention, the risk of leakage of confidential information can be reduced by controlling the display of the contents of print data identification information relating to print data .
