Data processing apparatus, computer-readable recording medium, and data processing system
First Claim
1. A data processing apparatus configured to distribute a computer program included in a package, the data processing apparatus comprising:
- a display configured to display a screen requesting receipt of input of user information; and
a processor configured to,determine whether or not the user information corresponds to a registered user,determine whether there exists setting information that sets whether temporary use of the data processing apparatus by a user associated with the user information is permitted, if the user information does not correspond to the registered user,issue user identification information, if the setting information exists, the user identification information including information indicating use restrictions with respect to functions of the data processing apparatus,display, via the display, information indicating that distribution of the package for the user is not permitted, if the use restrictions do not satisfy a condition, anddistribute the package containing the computer program according to a selected route selected by the user and the use restrictions such that the processor controls access to the selected route based on the use restrictions, if the use restrictions do satisfy the condition.

Abstract
A data processing apparatus includes a receiving unit configured to receive an input of user information, a determining unit configured to determine a destination corresponding to the user information, a preparing unit configured to prepare a computer program for enabling an information terminal device to which the computer program is installed to use a data processing function provided by the data processing apparatus and configuration information related to the data processing function, and a transmitting unit configured to transmit instruction information giving an instruction as to how the computer program and the configuration information are acquired to the destination thus determined over a network.

6. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium that contains computer readable instructions that, when executed, causes a processor to distribute a computer program included in a package by,
displaying, via a display, a screen requesting receipt of input of user information, determining whether or not the user information corresponds to a registered user, determining whether there exists setting information that sets whether temporary use of the data processing apparatus by a user associated with the user information is permitted, if the user information does not correspond to the registered user, issuing user identification information, if the setting information exists, the user identification information including information indicating use restrictions with respect to functions of the data processing apparatus, displaying, via the display, information indicating that distribution of the package for the user is not permitted, if the use restrictions do not satisfy a condition, and distributing the package containing the computer program according to a selected route selected by user and the use restrictions such that the processor controls access to the selected route based on the use restrictions, if the use restrictions do satisfy the condition.

7. A data processing system comprising:
-
a data processing apparatus including a first processor configured to display, via a display, a screen requesting receipt of input of user information; and one or more servers connected to the data processing apparatus over a network, at least one of the one or more servers including a second processor configured to, determine whether or not the user information corresponds to a registered user, determine whether there exists setting information that sets whether temporary use of the data processing apparatus by a user associated with the user information is permitted, if the user information does not correspond to the registered user, issue user identification information, if the setting information exists, the user identification information including information indicating use restrictions with respect to functions of the data processing apparatus, display, via the display, information indicating that distribution of the package for the user is not permitted, if the use restrictions do not satisfy a condition, and distribute the package containing the computer program according to a selected route selected by the user and the use restrictions such that the processor controls access to the selected route based on the use restrictions, if the use restrictions do satisfy the condition. - View Dependent Claims (9)
