Abstract

A printing device includes a printing device side wireless communication unit configured to execute wireless communication with a mobile terminal, an operation acquisition unit configured to acquire user operation thereof, and a processor. The processor is configured to acquire operation data which is generated as the operation acquisition unit acquires a user operation, acquire establishment data which is generated as the printing device side wireless communication unit establishes a wireless communication with the mobile terminal, and issue a request control to control the printing device side wireless communication unit to transmit request data requesting the mobile terminal to transmit print data necessary for printing, via the wireless communication, when the establishment data is acquired, the request control being issued in accordance with the operation data as acquired.

Claims12

Dependent claims

An image processing device, comprising:

an image processing device side wireless communication interface configured to execute wireless communication with a mobile terminal and generate establishment data when the wireless communication with the mobile terminal is established;
an operation acquisition user interface configured to acquire user operation thereof;
and
a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
acquire operation data which is generated as the operation acquisition user interface acquires a user operation when the image processing device side wireless communication interface has not established the wireless communication with the mobile terminal;
acquire establishment data which is generated as the image processing device side wireless communication interface establishes wireless communication with the mobile terminal after the operation data is acquired;
and
in response to acquiring the establishment data, determine whether to execute image processing in a first condition or in a second condition, based on the operation data which was acquired by the operation acquisition user interface of the image processing device when the image processing device side wireless communication interface had not established the wireless communication with the mobile terminal and prior to the establishment data being acquired.

5 more elements

A non-transitory computer readable recording medium storing instructions to be executed by a processor of an image processing device comprising an image processing device side wireless communication interface configured to execute wireless communication with a mobile terminal and generate establishment data when the wireless communication with the mobile terminal is established, and an operation acquisition user interface configured to acquire user operation thereof, the instructions when executed causing the processor to:

acquire operation data which is generated as the operation acquisition user interface acquires a user operation when the image processing device side wireless communication interface has not established the wireless communication with the mobile terminal;
acquire establishment data which is generated as the image processing device side wireless communication interface establishes wireless communication with the mobile terminal after the operation data is acquired;
and
in response to acquiring the establishment data, determine whether to execute image processing in a first condition or in a second condition, based on the operation data which was acquired by the operation acquisition user interface of the image processing device when the image processing device side wireless communication interface had not established the wireless communication with the mobile terminal and prior to the establishment data being acquired.
