An information processing device, comprises: a connection unit connected to a predetermined storage part storing therein startup mode determination information in which a startup mode corresponds to a specified hardware configuration and/or software configuration is configured and the plurality types of suspend data, each of which corresponds to the respective startup mode; a startup mode determination part for reading the startup mode determination information and determining the startup mode when being powered on; a suspend data obtaining part for selecting the suspend data corresponds to the startup mode determined by the startup mode determination part and obtaining the selected suspend data in the storage part; a starting up part for performing a startup process using the suspend data obtained by the suspend data obtaining part; and a startup mode updating part for updating the startup mode configured in the startup mode determination information after completion of the startup process.

Starting of an image processing device using predetermined data stored in a storage for rapid powered on and power down

An image transmitting apparatus and an image forming apparatus are provided whereby when the image transmitting apparatus transmits to the image forming apparatus data designating that multiple sets of identical images are to be printed. The user of the image forming apparatus can correctly understand that multiple sets of identical images have been sent.

Image transmitting apparatus and image forming apparatus

An image transmitting apparatus for transmitting image data to an external image receiving apparatus through a network, includes: an image reading unit which reads an image of a document and generates image data of the document; a transmitting unit which is connectable with a first network and a second network to transmit the image data of the document to the external image receiving apparatus, the first network being different from the second network; and a controller which controls the transmitting unit such that the image data of the document is transmitted to the external image receiving apparatus through one of the first and second networks, and such that the image data of the document is retransmitted to the external image receiving apparatus through the remaining one of the first and second networks.
