Non-transitory storage medium storing program set readable by computer of information processing apparatus, method for obtaining read result, and information processing apparatus

A method for obtaining a read result causing an information processing apparatus to obtain the read result of an external scanner conforming to a first protocol, the method causing the information processing apparatus to:

• when an operating system of the information processing apparatus receives a scan job by a second protocol different from the first protocol, obtain the scan job by a scan server program conforming to the external scanner;
• transmit a scan command of the first protocol to the external scanner based on the obtained scan job, the external scanner being conformable to the first protocol;
• and
• receive a read result obtained from the external scanner by the first protocol, the external scanner reading a document in response to receipt of the scan command transmitted from the information processing apparatus.

An information processing apparatus, comprising:

• a communication interface;
• and
• a computer,
• wherein the computer is configured to:
• when an operating system of the information processing apparatus receives a scan job by a second protocol different from a first protocol conformed to an external scanner which is communicable through the communication interface, cause a scan server program, of the image processing apparatus, conforming to the external scanner to obtain the scan job,
• transmit a scan command of the first protocol to the external scanner through the communication interface based on the obtained scan job, the external scanner being conformable to the first protocol, and
• receive a read result obtained from the external scanner by the first protocol through the communication interface, the external scanner reading a document in response to receipt of the scan command transmitted from the information processing apparatus.
