    storing image-identifying data identifying the original image, in association with the original image;

    transmitting the image-identifying data to the source from which the original image has been transmitted;

    receiving a sample-image request from the terminal device;

    performing a prescribed process on the original image, in response to the sample-image request;

    forming sample images from an image generated by performing the prescribed process, the sample images being smaller than the original image;

    storing process-identifying data identifying the process performed on the original image, in association with the original image;

    transmitting the sample images and the process-identifying data to the terminal device;

    receiving, from the terminal device, an image-process request including the image-identifying data and the process-identifying data; and

    transmitting an image generated by performing a process on the original image identified by the image-identifying data, the process being one identified by the process-identifying data.
