Abstract:
An image reading device allows an image transmission destination terminal to be designated from a console. The communication unit of the image reading device receives verification data from terminals via a network. The storage unit stores each of the received verification data in association with the terminal which had transmitted the verification data. The user inputs authentication data to the console after setting the document in place. When the authentication data is input, a list of terminals associated with the verification data matching the authentication data is displayed. The user may select from the displayed list, via the console, the transmission destination terminal to which the image is to be transmitted. When the user selects the transmission destination terminal, the reading control unit reads out an image and transmits the image to the selected terminal. The number of terminals displayed as candidates for the image transmission destination can be limited.
