Abstract:
A document scanning apparatus includes a controller configured to control an image scanner to scan a document sheet, thereby generating scanned image data, control a communication interface to transmit, to a storage, an instruction for inquiring whether there is one or more pieces of image data stored in a folder of the storage, control the communication interface to receive data existence information representing whether there is one or more pieces of image data stored in the folder, when the data existence information represents that there is one or more pieces of image data stored in the folder, control the communication interface to transmit, to the storage, an instruction to remove the one or more pieces of image data from the folder, and control the communication interface to transmit, to the storage, an instruction to store the scanned image data generated by the image scanner, into the folder.

Claim (Index 20):
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instructions that are executable by a processor coupled with a document scanning apparatus, the document scanning apparatus comprising an image scanner and a communication interface configured to communicate with a storage, the instructions being configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform a scanned-data storing process comprising:\n a scanning process to control the image scanner to scan a document sheet, thereby generating scanned image data; a first transmitting process to control the communication interface to transmit, to the storage, an instruction for inquiring of the storage whether there is one or more pieces of image data stored in a specific folder of the storage; a first receiving process to control the communication interface to receive, from the storage, data existence information representing whether there is one or more pieces of image data stored in the specific folder; a second transmitting process to, when the data existence information represents that there is one or more pieces of image data stored in the specific folder, control the communication interface to transmit, to the storage, an instruction to remove the one or more pieces of image data from the specific folder; and a data storing process to control the communication interface to transmit, to the storage, an instruction to store the scanned image data generated by the image scanner, into the specific folder.
