Abstract
An image processing method is carried out by a system (1) where a client system (2) automatically logs client data and retrieves image data to produce a job file which is automatically transmitted to a modem (10) of an image processing system (3). A control image processor (11) automatically monitors the job file and carries out routing operations and also supervisor notification operations to ensure efficient and effective implementation of the image processing method as required by the client. Each of the workstations (18, 19, 20) is capable of automatic configuration for particular job types by setting of image processing parameter values such as memory and virtual memory settings.
