A network system for sending a scan and/or print job to multiple network destinations based on a single request. In one example, ajob distribution server module receives a scan or print job request from a computer system or a peripheral device, such as a multi-function peripheral (MFP) device. The request may include image data to be sent to multiple network destinations, such as, for example, printers, fax machines, computers, email addresses and the like. The server module formats and sends the data to each of the network destinations, which may process the job at substantially the same time. In certain embodiments, the server module provides the user with a graphical interface for selecting network destinations to be associated with a particular virtual port or virtual printer. Furthermore, embodiments of the system allow for sending of scan jobs directly from the peripheral device.
