Image reading apparatus and method of controlling the same

1. An image reading apparatus comprising:

a communication device;

a scanner configured to generate a scan image by scanning a manuscript; and

at least one processor configured to control the communication device to transmit use information of the manuscript to an address corresponding to authorship information in response to a preset security pattern including the authorship information being detected in the generated scan image,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to perform a security operation only in a period corresponding to copy restriction period information included in the detected security pattern.

2. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the use information of the manuscript includes at least one among information for the manuscript, information for a user using the manuscript, information for a use time of the manuscript, information for the scanner, information for indicating whether or not a copy of the manuscript is created, and information for a number of copies of the manuscript.

3. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a printer configured to output the scan image,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to transmit the use information of the manuscript in response to the scan image in which the preset security pattern including the authorship information is being output through the printer.

4. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a printer configured to output the scan image,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the printer to:

output no scan image in response to a first type of the detected security pattern,

output the scan image in which a density of the security pattern is darker in response to a second type of the detected security pattern, and

output the scan image in response to a third type of the detected security pattern and authentication information corresponding to the detected security pattern being input.

5. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 4 , further comprising a display configured to display a user interface (UI) screen for receiving the authentication information,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to display the UI screen in response to the third type of the detected security pattern.

6. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the address includes at least one among an internet protocol (IP) address, a media access control (MAC) address, an electronic mail (e-mail) address, and a phone number.

7. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

an input device configured to receive a security option; and

a printer configured to output print data,

wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

generate the print data by inserting the preset security pattern corresponding to the received security option into the scan image generated by scanning a loaded manuscript, and

control the printer to output the generated print data.

8. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the security option includes at least one among a security pattern type, a security pattern inserting position, the authorship information, and copy restriction period information.

9. The image reading apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to output no generated print data in response to a toner amount available in the image reading apparatus being less than a preset amount.

10. A method of controlling an image reading apparatus, the method comprising:

generating a scan image by scanning a manuscript;

transmitting use information of the manuscript to an address corresponding to authorship information in response to a preset security pattern including the authorship information being detected in the scan image; and

performing a security operation corresponding to a type of the detected security pattern,

wherein the performing of the security operation includes performing the security operation only in a period corresponding to copy restriction period information included in the detected security pattern.

11. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the use information of the manuscript includes at least one among information for the manuscript, information for a user using the manuscript, information for a use time of the manuscript, information for the scanner, information for indicating whether or not a copy of the manuscript is created, and information for the number of copies of the manuscript.

12. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the transmitting of the use information includes transmitting the use information of the manuscript in response to the scan image in which the preset security pattern including the authorship information is being output through a printer of the image reading apparatus.

13. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the performing of the security operation includes outputting no scan image in response to a first type of the detected security pattern, outputting the scan image in which a density of the security pattern is darker in response to a second type of the detected security pattern, and outputting the scan image in response to a third type of the detected security pattern and authentication information corresponding to the detected security pattern being input.

14. The method as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the performing of the security operation includes displaying a user interface (UI) screen for receiving the authentication information in response to the third type of the detected security pattern.

15. The method as claimed in claim 10 , further comprising:

receiving a security option;

generating print data by inserting the preset security pattern corresponding to the received security option into the scan image generated by scanning a loaded manuscript; and

outputting the generated print data.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon at least one program comprising commands, which when executed by a computer, performs a method of controlling an image reading apparatus, the method comprising:

generating a scan image by scanning a manuscript;

transmitting use information of the manuscript to an address corresponding to authorship information in response to a preset security pattern including the authorship information being detected in the scan image; and

performing a security operation corresponding to a type of the detected security pattern,

wherein the performing of the security operation includes performing the security operation only in a period corresponding to copy restriction period information included in the detected security pattern.
