Abstract
The image reading device includes a scanner, a controller, and storage. The controller replicates first original image data specified by a replication instruction among the original image data stored in the storage to generate second original image data and stores information indicating a replication destination of the first original image data in the storage. Upon acquiring third original image data that is original image data from an image of an original document that is newly read by the scanner, the controller determines whether or not original document data volume indicating volume of the third original image data is greater than available capacity of the storage. Upon determining that the original document data volume is greater than the available capacity, the controller deletes one or more parts of the first original image data for which the replication destination information fulfills a predetermined condition from the storage.
