Patent ID: 8411291

Claim:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program to be installed and executed in an image processing apparatus having an operating system including a CUPS (Common UNIX Printing System), the image processing apparatus including a displaying unit configured to display a setting screen for setting facsimile parameters for a facsimile transmission, the facsimile parameters being stored in a file, an updating unit configured to update the facsimile parameters based on selections corresponding to the facsimile parameters displayed in the setting screen and a storing unit configured to store a plurality of image information to be transmitted by a facsimile apparatus, the display unit, the updating unit, and the storage unit being controlled by the CUPS, the program comprising instructions of: writing a transmission destination into the facsimile parameters before the displaying unit displays the setting screen, the transmission destination including a facsimile number, wherein the displaying unit displays the setting screen for setting the facsimile parameters in which the written transmission destination is reflected; reading the facsimile parameters updated by the updating unit and the facsimile number; forming transmission data based upon the facsimile parameters by converting the image information, which is read out from the storing unit, into an image representation in accordance with the facsimile parameters; and transmitting the transmission data to the facsimile apparatus, wherein the writing is performed as a front end process, wherein the reading, forming, and transmitting are performed as a back end process, wherein a spooling process of storing the plurality of image information into the storing unit is performed between the front end process and the back end process, and wherein the forming step prohibits overwriting the facsimile parameters including the transmission destination and a designated mode of the image to be transmitted until the transmission destination described in the facsimile transmission is added to the image information and the transmission data is formed based upon the designated mode of the image from the facsimile parameters.
