The scanning device scans a document, The control device obtains at least one of specification information and status information corresponding to a connection-target device. The specification information may comprise information identifying available functions of the connection-target device. The status information may comprise information indicating a current status of the connection-target device. The control device controls the display to display a setting screen for a scanning and printing process, in which the scanning device scans an image on a document and sends image data corresponding to the image on the document to the connection-target device for printing, when the connection-target device is a printer.
