Abstract:
A control method for a device searched for by an external terminal is provided. The method includes: transmitting a first response when a searching request for a first searching protocol is received from the external terminal; and transmitting a second response when a searching request for a second searching protocol different from the first searching protocol is received from the external terminal. Each of the first and second responses includes identification information for uniquely identifying the device. The included identification information is differentiated between the first and second responses.
