Storage medium, information processing apparatus, and fax transmission method

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a generic printer driver;
• a first acquisition processing unit configured to acquire a transmission setting value of a fax from the generic printer driver;
• a second acquisition processing unit configured to acquire, from an image processing device having a fax transmission function, capability information of the image processing device that is implementable using a first protocol;
• and
• a transmission processing unit configured to, when the capability information indicates that data transmission using the first protocol is possible, transmit first data including at least the transmission setting value, using the first protocol, to the image processing device, and to, when the capability information indicates that data transmission using the first protocol is not possible, transmit the first data, using a second protocol defined by a vendor of the image processing device, to the image processing device.

A fax transmission method executed by a computer, comprising:

• acquiring a transmission setting value of a fax from a generic printer driver;
• acquiring, from an image processing device having a fax transmission function, capability information of the image processing device that is implementable using a first protocol;
• and
• transmitting first data including at least the transmission setting value to the image processing device, using the first protocol, when the capability information indicates that data transmission using the first protocol is possible, and transmitting the first data to the image processing device, using a second protocol defined by a vendor of the image processing device, when the capability information indicates that data transmission using the first protocol is not possible.
