Problems solved by technology

[0012] However, in such a system, if the number of services provided by the server increases and / or when the number of clients increases, the amount of data to be transmitted using polling communication (amount of inquiry data) increases, thereby increasing network communication quantity
Further, due to the increase in client access, there may be a considerable load on the server

[0354] overall configuration

[0355] Next, an image processing system according to a second exemplary embodiment will be described.

[0356] Such as Figure 31 As shown, the image processing system according to the second embodiment includes an MFP 10 , a directory server 20 , and a function server 30 . In addition to the above, the image processing system includes an information management server 70 connected to the network 1 through the router 5 . Also, in this second embodiment, a plurality of MFPs

[0357] 10 is connected to network 1.

[0358] The MFP 10 according to the second embodiment includes a function enhancement unit 80 detachably connected to the MFP 10 and an attachment sensor 19 for detecting attachment of the function enhancement unit 80 to the MFP 10 . The installation sensor 19 is configured to output a detection result corresponding to the type of the function enhancement unit 80 connected to the MFP 10 .

[0359] The function enhancing unit 80 in thi...
