Abstract
When a print processing apparatus is not connected to a printing apparatus, the printing apparatus generates communication information using an IP address of the printing apparatus and writes the generated communication information into a memory of an NFC communication unit. When the print processing apparatus is connected to the printing apparatus, the printing apparatus generates communication information using an IP address of the print processing apparatus and writes the generated communication information into the memory of the NFC communication unit.
Claims8
A printing system comprising:
- a printing apparatus;
- a processing apparatus;
- and
- a portable terminal,
- wherein the printing apparatus transmits identification information of the processing apparatus to the portable terminal by using a near field wireless communication function, and
- wherein the portable terminal transmits print data to the processing apparatus based on the identification information of the processing apparatus, and
- wherein the portable terminal transmits the print data to the processing apparatus by using a communication function different from the near field wireless communication function.
A method for controlling a printing system that includes a printing apparatus, a processing apparatus and a portable terminal, the method comprising
- transmitting, by the printing apparatus, identification information of the processing apparatus to the portable terminal by using a near field wireless communication function,
- transmitting, by the portable terminal, print data to the processing apparatus based on the identification information of the processing apparatus, and
- wherein the portable terminal transmits the print data to the processing apparatus by using a communication function different from the near field wireless communication function.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium that stores instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, performs a method for controlling a printing system that includes a printing apparatus, a processing apparatus and a portable terminal, the method comprising
- transmitting, by the printing apparatus, identification information of the processing apparatus to the portable terminal by using a near field wireless communication function, and
- transmitting, by the portable terminal, print data to the processing apparatus based on the identification information of the processing apparatus, and
- wherein the portable terminal transmits the print data to the processing apparatus by using a communication function different from the near field wireless communication function
