At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to an image transmission apparatus connected to an image pickup apparatus and configured to transmit an image picked up by the image pickup apparatus to a plurality of client terminals via a network. The image transmission apparatus includes a setting unit configured to set a transmission processing mode for transmitting a still image picked up by the image pickup apparatus and a real-time image picked up by the image pickup apparatus and having a resolution lower than that of the still image according to an instruction issued from one of the plurality of client terminals, and a control unit configured to control an instruction to the image pickup apparatus and a transmission processing for the still image and the real-time image according to the transmission processing mode set by the setting unit.

A management device for an image processing apparatus includes a communication interface and a hardware processor. The communication interface transmits and receives a job to be executed in the image processing apparatus. Before transmission and reception of a job, the hardware processor transmits data on a communication path of the job for measuring a communication speed to obtain information representing a communication speed of a communication path for the job transmitted and received by the communication interface, and sets a timeout time of an image processing apparatus that executes the job, based on the obtained information representing a communication speed.

In a printing apparatus including an EEE function, activation control of a printer engine upon resumption from a power saving mode is efficiently made. The printing apparatus includes: a printer engine; a network interface capable of making a transition to; a normal operation state in which communication is made with an external apparatus in a first link speed, a first sleep state in which communication is made with the external apparatus in the first link speed and in which power is saved compared to power in the normal operation state, and a second sleep state in which communication is made with the external apparatus in a second link speed that is lower than the first link speed and in which power is saved compared to power in the normal operation state.

A communication device may receive a first specific signal from a terminal device via an NFC interface, determine whether the first specific signal includes install information, change an operation mode of the NFC interface from Reader mode to CE mode in a case where it is determined that the first specific signal does not include the install information, change the operation mode of the NFC interface from Reader mode to Writer mode in a case where it is determined that the first specific signal includes the install information, supply first identification information to the NFC interface in a case where the NFC interface operates in CE mode, and supply specific information different from the first identification information to the NFC interface in a case where the NFC interface operates in Writer mode.

To provide a non-transitory storage medium and a client device, both having a printer driver (PD), that are capable of suppressing the performance degradation of the printer driver resulting from a time required for exchanging a setting information of the function of the printer driver between the print server (PS) and the client device (CD). In an embodiment, the non-transitory storage medium, that includes the PD for an MFP that is to be executed by the CD causing the MFP to print via the PS controlling the MFP, restricts the available functions among the functions of the PD to reduce the size of the Devmode to be transmitted to the PS, when the communication speed between the PS and the CD is smaller than or equal to a specified speed.

A printing device includes a printing device side wireless communication unit configured to execute wireless communication with a mobile terminal, an operation acquisition unit configured to acquire user operation thereof, and a processor. The processor is configured to acquire operation data which is generated as the operation acquisition unit acquires a user operation, acquire establishment data which is generated as the printing device side wireless communication unit establishes a wireless communication with the mobile terminal, and issue a request control to control the printing device side wireless communication unit to transmit request data requesting the mobile terminal to transmit print data necessary for printing, via the wireless communication, when the establishment data is acquired, the request control being issued in accordance with the operation data as acquired.

According to this invention, in a reception end facsimile apparatus having a first communication mode for performing communication at a high speed and a second communication mode for performing communication at a low speed, it is determined based on an instruction from a transmission end facsimile apparatus whether to perform error correction during facsimile communication. Control is done not to perform communication in the first communication mode based on a fact that it is determined not to perform error correction during facsimile communication.

Provided is an image forming apparatus that allows a remote operation terminal to operate an image processing apparatus connected by SIP. On this account, the image forming apparatus (100) connected to the remote operation terminal (300) by SIP includes a remote operation-request message receiving part that receive a remote-operation request message from the remote operation terminal (300), a remote-operation response message transmitting part that transmits a remote-operation response message in response to the remote-operation request message, and an operation-screen information transmitting part that transmits operation screen information of the image forming apparatus (100) to the remote operation terminal (300) in accordance with the communication condition of the communication session when an SIP-based communication session is established between the remote operation terminal (300) and the image forming apparatus (100).

An image forming apparatus that causes a user's will concerning which of a communication speed and power saving efficiency is given priority to be reflected on determination of a power saving mode. In shifting the apparatus to a power saving mode, a first setting inhibits disconnection of a communication link and a second setting indicates changing communication speed to a lower speed. One of the first and second settings is made according to a user's instruction. In the first setting, the apparatus is shifted to a first power saving mode. In the second setting, the apparatus is shifted to a second power saving mode. When the apparatus is shifted to the first power saving mode, the communication link is not disconnected. When the apparatus is shifted to the second power saving mode, the communication speed of the apparatus is changed to the lower speed.
