Non-transitory storage medium storing program set readable by computer of information processing apparatus, method for obtaining read result, and information processing apparatus

A method for obtaining a read result causing an information processing apparatus to obtain the read result of an external scanner conforming to a first protocol,

• wherein, when an operating system of the information processing apparatus receives a scan job by a second protocol different from the first protocol, the method causes the operating system to generate a scan command of the second protocol based on the received scan job and transmit the scan command of the second protocol to a scan server program conforming to the external scanner;
• wherein, when the scan server program receives the scan command of the second protocol from the operating system, the method causes the scan server program to convert the scan command of the second protocol into a scan command of the first protocol, and
• wherein the method causes the information processing apparatus to
• transmit the converted scan command of the first protocol to the external scanner, and
• receive a read result obtained from the external scanner by the first protocol, the external scanner reading a document in response to receipt of the scan command transmitted from the information processing apparatus.

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a communication interface;
• and
• a computer,
• wherein the computer is configured to
• when an operating system of the information processing apparatus receives a scan job by a second protocol different from a first protocol conformed to an external scanner which is communicable through the communication interface, cause the operating system to generate a scan command of the second protocol based on the received scan job and transmit the scan command of the second protocol to a scan server program conforming to the external scanner,
• when the scan server program receives the scan command of the second protocol from the operating system, cause the scan server program of the information processing apparatus to convert the scan command of the second protocol into a scan command of the first protocol,
• transmit the converted scan command of the first protocol to the external scanner through the communication interface, and
• receive a read result obtained from the external scanner by the first protocol through the communication interface, the external scanner reading a document in response to receipt of the scan command transmitted from the information processing apparatus.
