1. An image processing device, comprising:
- a scanner to scan a document;
a network interface;
a user interface including a display;
a memory; and
a processor configured to conduct an image data storing process and an image data sending process;
wherein in conducting the image data storing process, the processor is configured to;
display one or more first display screens to receive first inputs by a user, the first inputs including at least one or more scan condition settings and a document name, and the one or more first display screens including a scan setting screen to receive the at least one or more scan condition settings and a document name input screen to receive the document name;
control the scanner to scan the document in accordance with the one or more scan condition settings that have been received via the one or more first display screens;
generate image data based on the scanned document;
store the generated image data in the memory in association with the document name which has been received via the one or more first display screens; and
wherein in conducting the image data sending process, the processor is configured to;
display one or more second display screens to receive second inputs by the user, the second inputs including at least a selection of at least one image data to be sent among a plurality of image data stored in the memory, the plurality of image data including at least the generated image data, the second inputs further including a selection of a destination to which the at least one image data is to be sent; and
control the network interface to send the at least one image data to the destination, the at least one image data and the destination being selected via the one or more second display screens.

Abstract
In the image processing device, method and system of the present invention, a destination identifier of an image file is stored, the destination identifier indicating one of a plurality of external stations as a destination station which receives the image file from the image processing device through a network. At least one of a sender identifier of the image file, a subject identifier of the image file and a scan condition of the image file is stored. The image file is transmitted, together with at least one of the sender identifier, the subject identifier and the scan condition, through the network to one of the external stations indicated by the stored destination identifier.
