Abstract
Abstract According to the a processing command for the copy function or the like, the copying machine sends the processing conditions like the user ID or the coping density as appended data along with the document data to the server through the Intranet. The server 12 accumulates the document data in the infinite memory server and Web IMS and simultaneously stores the accumulated addresses and other appended data in relation to each of the user IDs in a retrieval possible way in the database inside the hard disk drive. When the document data is to be reused, the server displays the appended data so that it can be easily selected and sends the selected appended data along with the document data to the copying machine.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
170 words
A file system applied to processing unit having a copying function for copying data from a document, said file system comprising: a memory; an accumulation managing unit configured to accumulate and store in the memory both the data copied from the document and a reading mode used by the processing unit to copy the data from the document, and configured to correlate the data copied from the document together with the reading mode; and an output managing unit configured to display the reading mode correlated with the copied data stored in the memory, and configured to read and output the copied data stored in the memory correlated with the reading mode when the reading mode is selected from the display, wherein the reading mode corresponds to at least one of 1) a document fed by an automatic document feeder included in the processing unit, 2) a sheet document manually placed on a read position including in the processing unit, and 3) a book document manually placed on the read position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
170 words
A file system applied to processing unit having a copying function for copying data from a document, said file system comprising: a memory; an accumulation managing unit configured to accumulate and store in the memory both the data copied from the document and a reading mode used by the processing unit to copy the data from the document, and configured to correlate the data copied from the document together with the reading mode; and an output managing unit configured to display the reading mode correlated with the copied data stored in the memory, and configured to read and output the copied data stored in the memory correlated with the reading mode when the reading mode is selected from the display, wherein the reading mode corresponds to at least one of 1) a document fed by an automatic document feeder included in the processing unit, 2) a sheet document manually placed on a read position including in the processing unit, and 3) a book document manually placed on the read position.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
A file system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing unit has a document pressing unit configured to press the document manually placed on the read position.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
A file system according to claim 2 , wherein the reading mode further corresponds to an open/close action of said document pressing unit.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
35 words
A file system according to claim 1 , wherein said output managing unit prepares a reduced image of the copied data and displays the reduced image with the corresponding reading mode on a display unit.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
40 words
A file system according to claim 1 , wherein said accumulation managing unit cancels the accumulation of the copied data when it receives an accumulation avoidance instruction before the copied data is accumulated in said memory or during accumulation thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
170 words
A file system applied to a processing unit having a copying function for copying data from a document, said file system comprising: a memory; an accumulation managing unit configured to accumulate and store in the memory both the data copied from the document and a reading mode used by the processing unit to copy the data from the document, and configured to correlate the data copied from the document together with the reading mode; and an output managing unit configured to display the reading mode correlated with the copied data stored in the memory, and configured to read and output the copied data stored in the memory correlated with the reading mode when the reading mode is selected from the display, wherein the processing unit has a document pressing unit configured to press a document manually placed on a read position, wherein the reading mode corresponds to the document pressed against the read position, and wherein the reading mode further corresponds to an open/close action of said document pressing unit.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
170 words
A file system applied to a processing unit having a copying function for copying data from a document, said file system comprising: a memory; an accumulation managing unit configured to accumulate and store in the memory both the data copied from the document and a reading mode used by the processing unit to copy the data from the document, and configured to correlate the data copied from the document together with the reading mode; and an output managing unit configured to display the reading mode correlated with the copied data stored in the memory, and configured to read and output the copied data stored in the memory correlated with the reading mode when the reading mode is selected from the display, wherein the processing unit has a document pressing unit configured to press a document manually placed on a read position, wherein the reading mode corresponds to the document pressed against the read position, and wherein the reading mode further corresponds to an open/close action of said document pressing unit.
