Problems solved by technology

Therefore, if all operations performed by the user are logged together with the employed draft information, then the amount of required memory becomes massive and increases the total cost.
If recording of log information is restricted uniformly to reduce the information to be stored, even the log information to be recorded may not be recorded.

first embodiment

[0029] FIG. 1A shows a perspective view of the complex machine of a The complex machine system according to the present invention comprises a complex machine 1 and a personal computer (PC) 2, which are individually connected to the Internet I.

[0030] Each section shown in FIG. 1A will be described in detail below. The complex machine 1 is a digital complex machine that includes one or more of, a draft tray 1b for setting a draft thereon, a scanner 1c which scans the set draft to acquire image data, a communication section (shown in FIG. 2) which accepts image data from external devices, transmits the image data acquired at the scanner 1c and receives other image data, and a printer id which prints the image data. The complex machine 1 operates as a copier using the scanner 1c and the printer 1d in combination. It also operates as a printer using the communication section and the printer 1d in combination. It further operates as a facsimile using the printer 1d, the communication sec...

second embodiment

[0137] As described above, the second embodiment is configured to create, transmit and receive the log information based on SOAP. Therefore, it is possible to transmit and receive information on processed results based on the standard specification among a large number of indefinite complex machines, PCs and management servers over the network. Accordingly, the information on the processed result created by a single complex machine 1 can be easily utilized at any locations over the network for desired uses.

[0138] A multi-channel communication control unit 750, connected to the management server 720, is connected to the public network 760 and, via communication controllers 710 and connected to plural sets of the complex machines 701 and 770. The complex machines 701 and 770 are connected to the PC 700 that serves as a printer client via a network such as the Ethernet.RTM. 780. This PC 700 is also equipped with a SOAP listener and a SOAP proxy (both not shown) to realize data intercha...

Abstract

A main controller stores levels and information to be stored in accordance with the levels. An operation screen is used to enter operation information for operating a complex machine 1. A scanner engine and a plotter engine execute operations based on the operation information. A memory records only information on operations in a level corresponding to the entered level information among the operations performed by the complex machine.

Description

[0001] 1) Field of the Invention[0002] The present invention relates to a computer ("digital computer") and a system for recording information on operations.[0003] 2) Description of the Related Art[0004] Conventionally, a digital computer is often employed in complex machines that have multiple applications. The digital computer collects information on a log (log information) from the complex machine to manage users. Such digital computer is known to store the collected log information into a memory in the main part of the digital computer and, if required, reads it out.[0005] A conventional image formation apparatus and method of controlling the same is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-341212. What is disclosed is a technology that allows acceptance of multiple jobs. History of executed jobs is displayed and final historical information is read out upon reception of an enquiry through a network.[0006] In the above-described technology, the col...
