Network Device Search System that Allows Information Processing Terminal to Identify Network Device

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium comprising a network device search program stored thereon executable by a computer of a network device and a computer of an information processing terminal, the network device search program comprising:

• a first program code that causes the computer of the information processing terminal to transmit a search request signal via a network;
• a second program code that causes the computer of the information processing terminal to display, if notification information is attached to a received response signal, unique information for the network device included in the response signal in association with the notification information;
• a third program code that causes the computer of the network device to display an input screen in response to reception of the search request signal;
• and
• a fourth program code that causes the computer of the network device to return, when the notification information is input through the input screen, the response signal including the unique information for the network device by attaching the notification information thereto.

A network device search method, comprising:

• transmitting, via a search request unit of an information processing terminal, a search request signal via a network;
• displaying, via a device information display unit of the information processing terminal, if notification information is attached to a received response signal, unique information for a network device included in the response signal in association with the notification information;
• displaying, via an input screen display unit of the network device, an input screen in response to reception of the search request signal;
• and
• returning, via a search request response unit of the network device, when the notification information is input through the input screen, the response signal including the unique information for the network device by attaching the notification information thereto.
