Abstract:
1. A data processing system comprising a plurality of image processing apparatuses, comprising: a first image processing apparatus, at a transmission source, among said plurality of image processing apparatuses includes: a user data storing portion to store user data including at least user identification information for identifying a user, a destination designation portion to accept designation of the user identification information included in said user data as a destination of data, a data designation portion to accept designation of data to be delivered to the destination designated by said destination designation portion, a transmission source process procedure accepting portion to accept a transmission source process procedure which defines a plurality of printing process settings to be executed on data designated by said data designation portion, and a related data generation portion to generate related data in which said designated user identification information, said designated data, and said accepted transmission source process procedure are related to one another; and a second image processing apparatus, at a transmission destination, among said plurality of image processing apparatuses includes: a user identification information input portion to accept an input of user identification information, a transmission destination process procedure obtaining portion to obtain a transmission destination process procedure which is registered beforehand corresponding to said input user identification information and defines a plurality of printing processes to be executed on data, a data obtaining portion to obtain data related to said input user identification information by said related data, a process procedure decision portion to compare a priority level of the plurality of printing process settings defined in the transmission source process procedure received from the first image processing apparatus with the plurality of printing processes defined in the transmission destination process procedure, and to decide between a process defined by the transmission source process procedure and a process defined by the transmission destination process procedure to define a final process procedure based on the comparison, and a processing execution portion to process said obtained data according to said final process procedure decided by said process procedure decision portion.
