Abstract:
A MFP including a wireless network interface can set whether wireless communication based on Wi-Fi Direct® or wireless communication not based on Wi-Fi Direct® is used as direct wireless communication via the wireless network interface. The MFP provides, in a method different from the wireless communication using the wireless interface, an external device with connection information for establishing network communication between the external device and the MFP. The MFP provides different types of connection information between the case of using wireless communication based on Wi-Fi Direct® and the case of not using such wireless communication as direct wireless communication.
