Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. An information processing apparatus that is communicable with an image processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising:
a network interface device system;
a memory device system storing one or more programs; and
a data processing device system communicatively connected to the network interface device system and the memory device system and configured by the one or more programs at least to:
transmit, via the network interface device system, identification information about the information processing apparatus to the image processing apparatus;
receive, via the network interface device system, image data that is generated by scanning a document by the image processing apparatus and is transmitted from the image processing apparatus using the identification information;
transmit, via the network interface device system, the received image data to a predetermined application stored by the memory device system of the information processing apparatus;
set as to whether the received image data is transmitted to the predetermined application; and
transmit, via the network interface device system, a deletion instruction to the image processing apparatus,
wherein whether the received image data is transmitted to the predetermined application is set based on the transmitting of the identification information via the network interface device system, so that the received image data is transmitted to the predetermined application via the network interface device system,
wherein the deletion instruction instructs deletion of information about the information processing apparatus as a transmission destination of image data transmitted from the image processing apparatus, and
wherein the data processing device system is configured by the one or more programs at least to set so as to stop transmitting the received image data to the predetermined application at a timing at which the deletion instruction is transmitted to the image processing apparatus via the network interface device system.
