Problems solved by technology

Therefore, there arises a problem that the traffic of the transmission path increases and the image information distribution efficiency decreases, causing inconvenience to the user
[0010] In the image input / output system disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2000-349952, the information distributed to the user as image information is simplified positioning information of the image information, which occurs that the user only needs to locate The problem that the information cannot understand the content of the image information
Therefore, in order to understand the content of the image information (in order to see the simplified image information), to determine whether the image information stored in the image input / output device is necessary, the user must receive from the image input / output device by using the positioning information Hypertext with simplified image information, so there is a problem of increased transmission path traffic

Embodiment 1

[0071] figure 1 is a configuration diagram of an image information distribution system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

[0072] In this figure, numeral 10 denotes a scanner. The scanner 10 is connected to a local area network (LAN) 1 . A server 20 as a central device is also connected to the LAN 1 . Also connected to the LAN 1 are information processing devices 30, 30, . . . which are personal computers serving as clients (terminal devices) of the server 20, each having a specific mail address.

[0073] figure 2 is a block diagram of the scanner 10 as a component of the image information distribution system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

[0074] In this figure, reference numeral 100 denotes a control unit of the scanner 10 . The control unit 100 is connected to components such as the storage unit 101 and the reading unit 106 via a bus. The control unit 100 controls these components and executes various processes according to a p...

Embodiment 2

[0135] Through the scanner 10 connected to the LAN 1, the server 20, and the information processing devices 30, 30, ... corresponding to the information processing devices 30, 30, ... in the image information distribution system constituting Embodiment 1 To construct the image information distribution system of Embodiment 2.

[0136] Figure 9 is a block diagram of the scanner 10 as a component of the image information distribution system according to Embodiment 2.

[0137] In this figure, reference numeral 124 represents the destination storage unit of the scanner 10, and the destination storage unit 124 stores email addresses, and a non-volatile storage device such as a hard disk is used as the destination storage unit 124.

[0138] When the user sets an original image on the scanner 10 and inputs a mail address, a URL, and a reading start instruction by operating the operation unit 103, the control unit 100 controls the reading unit 106 to read the original image and gener...

Embodiment 3

[0158] Corresponding to the server 20 as a component in the image information distribution system of Embodiment 2 through the scanner 10 connected to the LAN 1 (see Figure 10 ) server 20, and information processing devices 30, 30, ... to construct the image information distribution system of Embodiment 3.

[0159] When receiving the URL and image information from the information processing device 30, the server 20 of Embodiment 3 stores the received image information in the location indicated by the received URL in the image information storage unit 210, and stores the image information The corresponding relationship between URL and URL is stored in the location information storage unit 220 .

[0160] The scanner 10 of Embodiment 3 has components similar to those of the scanner 10 which is a component of the image information distribution system in Embodiment 1 (see figure 2 ), and also receive image information generation conditions, reading start instructions, and the lik...

Abstract

An information processing apparatus 30 obtains a summary document including summary image information obtained by reducing image information stored in a server 20 (step S152) and displays the summary image information or the like included in the summary document (step S153). When a receiving instruction of image information corresponding to the summary image information is inputted by the user who recognizes the summary image information (YES in step S154), the image information is received from the server 20 (step S159). By such processings, an image information distributing method, an image information distributing system, a central apparatus, a terminal apparatus, a scanner apparatus, and a computer memory product capable of transmitting only image information required by the user and preventing traffic of a transmission path from increasing are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an image information distribution method, which is used for distributing image information generated by scanner equipment to terminal equipment through central equipment, image information distribution system, central equipment, terminal equipment, scanner equipment and computer storage products. Background technique [0002] Generally, an image information distribution system is used in which a scanner device and one or more terminal devices (for example, personal computers) are connected to each other via a local area network. [0003] A traditional image information distribution system pastes image information generated by reading an original image by a scanner device as an attachment on an e-mail, and sends the e-mail to a required terminal device. [0004] Even in the case where many users need image information, such an image information distribution system can distribute image information to each user's terminal device. ...
