Abstract
In order for the user to set new file transfer data, the image file transfer setting unitacquires authentication data from a file transfer data table and displays a list of connections on the display unit. Next, the user uses the input unitto select a desired connection from the list and also to input or select a folderto be the transfer source and a hot folderto be the transfer destination. The image file transfer setting unitcombines this data as new file transfer data and adds the data to the file transfer data table. In this way, the user can set new file transfer data using authentication data included in preset file transfer data, thereby facilitating the setting of file transfer data and the management of server authentication data.
