Image processing apparatus, communication method

An image processing apparatus comprising:

• a first communication processing portion configured to, upon receiving, from a wireless communication apparatus, a connection request for a connection via any of a plurality of wireless networks, establish a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and the image processing apparatus;
• a second communication processing portion configured to, upon receiving, from the wireless communication apparatus, a connection request for a connection to a communication device via the image processing apparatus, determine whether or not to permit an establishment of a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and the communication device based on a wireless network used by the wireless communication apparatus among the plurality of wireless networks;
• and
• an execution processing portion configured to, upon receiving, from the wireless communication apparatus, a job execution instruction to execute a predetermined particular job, determine whether or not to execute the particular job, based on the wireless network used by the wireless communication apparatus among the plurality of wireless networks.

A communication method comprising:

• a first step of, upon receiving, from a wireless communication apparatus, a connection request for a connection via any of a plurality of wireless networks, establishing a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and an image processing apparatus;
• a second step of, upon receiving, from the wireless communication apparatus, a connection request for a connection to a communication device via the image processing apparatus, determining whether or not to permit an establishment of a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and the communication device based on a wireless network used by the wireless communication apparatus among the plurality of wireless networks;
• a third step of determining whether or not the wireless communication apparatus has an authority to connect to any of one or more particular networks among the plurality of wireless networks;
• and
• a fourth step of, in a case where two or more wireless networks among the plurality of wireless networks can be set as the particular networks, upon receiving, from the wireless communication apparatus, an access request for access to a storage portion that stores setting information of the image processing apparatus, determining whether or not to permit the wireless communication apparatus to access the storage portion based on one of the particular networks used by the wireless communication apparatus, wherein
• in the first step, when a connection request for a connection via any of the particular networks is received from the wireless communication apparatus, it is determined whether or not to permit an establishment of a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and the image processing apparatus, based on a determination result of the determination processing portion,
• in the second step, in a case where the wireless network used by the wireless communication apparatus among the plurality of wireless networks is one of the particular networks, an establishment of a communication connection between the wireless communication apparatus and the communication device is permitted, and
• in the third step, it is determined whether or not the wireless communication apparatus has an authority to connect to each of the particular networks.
