Communication apparatus, method, storage medium storing program, and system

A method executed in a communication apparatus communicable with an information processing apparatus, comprising:

• displaying, on a display, to be captured by the information processing apparatus, display information including first information used for communication for establishing, by a first connection method, wireless connection between the communication apparatus and an external access point different from the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus, and second information for establishing, by a second connection method without intervention of the external access point, wireless connection between the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus;
• receiving a request transmitted from the information processing apparatus based on one of the first information and the second information;
• executing the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method based on the request transmitted based on the first information;
• establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method based on the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method;
• and
• establishing the wireless connection by the second connection method based on the request transmitted based on the second information.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured to cause one or more computers of an information processing apparatus communicable with a communication apparatus:

• acquire display information displayed on a display of the communication apparatus by capturing the display;
• decide, based on at least one of the acquired display information and a connection status between the information processing apparatus and an external access point, whether to issue, to the communication apparatus, a request of communication for establishing, by a first connection method, wireless connection between the communication apparatus and the external access point or to issue, to the information processing apparatus, a request to establish, by a second connection method, wireless connection between the communication apparatus and the information processing apparatus;
• and
• request, based on the decision, the communication apparatus to perform the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method or to perform the wireless connection by the second connection method.

A system comprising a communication apparatus and an information processing apparatus,

• the communication apparatus includes
• at least one memory storing instructions and at least one processor that executes the instructions and cause the communication apparatus to:
• display, on a display, to be captured by the information processing apparatus, display information including first information used for communication for establishing, by a first connection method, wireless connection between the communication apparatus and an external access point different from the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus, and second information for establishing, by a second connection method without intervention of the external access point, wireless connection between the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus,
• receive a request transmitted from the information processing apparatus based on one of the first information and the second information,
• execute the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method based on the request transmitted based on the first information,
• establish the wireless connection by the first connection method based on the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method, and
• establish the wireless connection by the second connection method based on the request transmitted based on the second information, and
• the information processing apparatus includes
• at least one memory storing instructions and at least one processor that executes the instructions to cause the information processing apparatus to:
• acquire the display information displayed on the display of the communication apparatus by capturing the display,
• decide, based on at least one of the acquired display information and a connection status between the information processing apparatus and the external access point, whether to issue, to the communication apparatus, the request of the communication for establishing, by the first connection method, the wireless connection between the communication apparatus and the external access point or to issue, to the information processing apparatus, the request to establish, by the second connection method, the wireless connection between the communication apparatus and the information processing apparatus, and
• request, based on the decision, the communication apparatus to perform the communication for establishing the wireless connection by the first connection method or to perform the wireless connection by the second connection method.
