Abstract
According to aspects of the present disclosure, when a PC and a MFP are remotely connected through an network IF, a CPU of the MFP selects still images, which constitutes an animation, one by one and display the animation on a panel of the MFP by displaying the selected one image with sequentially switching the selected one image. Then, in a case where the same animation is continuously displayed on the panel of the MFP, after generating a plurality of pieces of screen data, which constitute the animation, to be displayed on the PC, the CPU of the MFP stops to repeatedly generate screen data same as the plurality of pieces of screen data.
Claims9
An image processing system including an information processing device and an image processing device,
- wherein the information processing device comprises a first communication interface, a first display, and a first controller, and
- wherein the image processing device comprises a second communication interface, a second display, and a second controller,
- wherein, in a case where the image processing device and the information processing device are remotely connected through the first communication interface and the second communication interface, the first controller is configured to:
- periodically transmit a screen update request to the image processing device, the screen update request being a request for screen data, the screen data being used to display a virtual same screen on the first display, the virtual same screen being a screen virtually same as a screen displayed on the second display;
- and
- receive the screen data transmitted by the image processing device in response to the screen update request, and display, on the first display, the virtual same screen based on the received screen data, and
- wherein, in a case where the image processing device and the information processing device are remotely connected through the first communication interface and the second communication interface, the second controller is configured to:
- in response to receipt of the screen update request from the information processing device, generate the screen data and transmit the generated screen data to the information processing device;
- and
- in a case where, after displaying an animation on the second display by selecting images, one by one, from a plurality of still images constituting the animation and displaying the selected images by switching the selected images sequentially, when an animation same as the animation displayed on the second display is to be displayed continuously, after generating a plurality of pieces of screen data used to display the plurality of still images, respectively, stop generating screen data same as the plurality of pieces of screen data.
