## Abstract

An information processing apparatus connected with a peripheral apparatus via a communication line includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information about a destination of the peripheral apparatus, and a provision unit configured to provide functions for at least one of managing and controlling the peripheral apparatus according to the destination information acquired by the acquisition unit. The provision unit is configured to refer to information indicating a function to be provided according to the destination of the peripheral apparatus and to provide a function for at least one of managing and controlling the peripheral apparatus.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1-14. (canceled)

### Claim 15

An information processing apparatus comprising:
a display unit configured to display an object including a specific character string; and
an acquisition unit configured to acquire first information or second information from a peripheral apparatus,
wherein the information processing apparatus displays a first web site in a case where the object is pressed and the acquisition unit has acquired the first information from the peripheral apparatus, and displays a second web site in a case where the object is pressed and the acquisition unit has acquired the second information from the peripheral apparatus.

### Claim 16

A method comprising:
displaying an object including a specific character string;
acquiring first information or second information from a peripheral apparatus;
displaying a first web site in a case where the object is pressed and the first information has been acquired from the peripheral apparatus; and
displaying a second web site in a case where the object is pressed and the second information has been acquired from the peripheral apparatus.

### Claim 17

A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions for causing an information processing apparatus to perform a method comprising:
displaying an object including a specific character string;
acquiring first information or second information from a peripheral apparatus;
displaying a first web site in a case where the object is pressed and the first information has been acquired from the peripheral apparatus; and
displaying a second web site in a case where the object is pressed and the second information has been acquired from the peripheral apparatus.
