Information processing apparatus that searches for communication apparatus via network, storage medium that stores program executed by the information processing apparatus, and control method for the information processing apparatus

A storage medium that stores a program executed by an information processing apparatus that searches for a communication apparatus via a network,

• the program causing the information processing apparatus to function as
• an obtaining unit configured to search for the communication apparatus by using both a first search method and a second search method and to obtain specification information for a user to specify the communication apparatus and identification information for the information processing apparatus to identify the communication apparatus, and
• a display unit configured to display, in a case where the obtaining unit obtains the specification information and the identification information by the first search method or the second search method, the obtained specification information and predetermined information in association with each other, the predetermined information indicating a search method used for the obtainment from among the first search method and the second search method,
• wherein, in a case where the obtaining unit redundantly obtains the same identification information by the first search method and the second search method, the display unit displays a combination of the specification information corresponding to the same identification information and the predetermined information, by a display method in accordance with a selection by the user from among a plurality of display methods.

A control method executed by an information processing apparatus that searches for a communication apparatus via a network, the control method comprising:

• searching for the communication apparatus by using both a first search method and a second search method;
• obtaining specification information for a user to specify the communication apparatus, and identification information for the information processing apparatus to identify the communication apparatus;
• and
• displaying, in a case where the specification information and the identification information are obtained by the first search method or the second search method in the obtaining, the obtained specification information and predetermined information in association with each other, the predetermined information indicating a search method used for the obtainment from among the first search method and the second search method,
• wherein, in a case where the same identification information is redundantly obtained by the first search method and the second search method in the obtaining, the displaying displays a combination of the specification information corresponding to the same identification information and the predetermined information, by a display method in accordance with a selection by the user from among a plurality of display methods.
