There is provided an image processing apparatus that is characterized by: reading an original document and generating image data; performing transmission of an electronic mail to which the image data is attached; performing, according to an end of the transmission of the electronic mail, transmission of an end notification mail for notifying the end of the transmission of the electronic mail; setting a transmission destination to which the end notification mail is transmitted; and deciding whether or not to permit the attachment of the image data to the end notification mail, according to the transmission destination.

A non-transitory storage medium stores a program set readable by a computer of a first information processing apparatus. The program set including a first program and a second program. The first program causes the first information processing apparatus to start the second program, and register the started second program, as a virtual scanner, in an operating system of the first information processing apparatus. The second program causes the first information processing apparatus to transmit a scan command of the first protocol to the external scanner, and receive a read result from the external scanner by the first protocol through the communication interface. The external scanner reads a document in response to receipt of the scan command transmitted from the information processing apparatus.

An image communication apparatus has, as operation states, a first power state and a second power state with lower power consumption than the first power state. The apparatus comprises a ringing unit that rings according to an predetermined incoming signal from an external; a setting unit that sets whether the ringing unit rings according to the predetermined incoming signal or not; and a control unit that shifts the operation state from the first power state to the second power state based on at least the setting set by the setting unit.

A communication apparatus includes a communication unit, having operation modes including a first operation mode in which data communication is enabled and a second operation mode in which power consumption is lower than that in the first operation mode, configured to perform data communication with an opposed device, and a control unit configured to control switching between the operation modes of the communication unit, wherein the control unit controls a speed of communication, at a transition of the communication unit from the first operation mode to the second operation mode, between the communication unit and the opposed device to a predetermined communication speed or lower, then causes the communication unit to transition from the first operation mode to the second operation mode, and then stops clock supply to the communication unit.

In a case where an IP address is not available in a printing apparatus, the printing apparatus generates a Bluetooth low energy packet including a specific value as the IP address, and transmits the generated Bluetooth low energy packet to a mobile terminal. Upon receiving of the Bluetooth low energy packet, a mobile terminal displays a message corresponding to the specific value.

An image reading apparatus, having a reader device, a user interface, a communication interface, and a controller, is provided. The controller accepts entry of first receiver-identifying information, in response to entry of a first scan command through the user interface, controls the reader device to read an image of an original material, and stores image data for the read image in relation with the first receiver-identifying information in a predetermined memory area. In response to receiving of a second scan command including second receiver-identifying information that corresponds to the first receiver-identifying information by identifying the same receiver from an information processing apparatus by use of a specific protocol, the controller reads out the image data stored in relation with the first receiver-identifying information corresponding to the second receiver-identifying information included in the second scan command from the predetermined memory area, and transmits the image data to the information processing apparatus.

A printing device has a print unit for printing on roll paper; a wireless communication unit for communicating wirelessly with a paired control device; and a controller for receiving print data by wireless communication from the control device, and controlling the print unit based on the received print data. When changing from a pairing-disabled mode to a pairing-enabled mode, the controller controls the print unit to print pairing-related information on roll paper, does not process pairing in the pairing-disabled mode, and processes pairing when a pairing request is received in the pairing-enabled mode.

A function executing device is configured to send a wireless identifier to a communication device via a first type of wireless communication interface for setting up a wireless connection. The function executing device is configured to determine whether the function executing device is in an error state and, if not, to establish the wireless connection via a second type of wireless communication interface. The function executing device operates in a parent state in the wireless connection. Additionally, print data may be received from the communication device. However, if the function executing device is in an error state the wireless connection is not established via the second type of wireless communication interface.
