ABSTRACT:
A network system includes a) an image scanner which is connected to a network, reads an images, and includes an input device for inputting identification information on a user; and b) a file server connected to the image scanner over the network. The file server includes directories which are created in advance in one-to-one correspondence to users and in which image data read by the image scanner is stored, and a memory in which the relationships of correspondence between identification information on users and the directories associated with the users are stored. When image data is input from the image scanner, the file server stores the image data in a directory associated with identification information input from the image scanner. Due to this configuration, an image scanner usable when connected directly to a client/server type network such as a LAN can be provided. Supposing an image scanner connected to a network is used as a copier or facsimile, it is possible to obviate the necessity of mounting unwanted keys on the image scanner.
