Abstract: An information processing apparatus which can reduce the trouble of operation since a user does not have to irregularly operate a reconnection operation. A printing device 100 as the information processing apparatus includes a DHCP server function and distributes different IP addresses to external devices respectively. If a number of external devices connected to the printing device 100 in the IP layer level has reached a first connection number, when an IP address distribution request is sent from a first external device after a connection to the first external device in the wireless link layer level is established, an IP address is not controlled to be distributed to the first external device. If not, the IP address is controlled to be distributed to the first external device so that the connection to the first external device in the IP layer level becomes available.

Abstract: A communication apparatus including a direct wireless communication function determines whether the direct wireless communication function is automatically stopped based on a device setting and the type of an SSID to be used.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus that wirelessly communicates with an external apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires a wireless connection start request and wireless communication information about the external apparatus, and a control unit that starts a wireless connection with the external apparatus based on the external apparatus' wireless communication information in a case where the wireless communication information about the external apparatus matches wireless communication information about the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: A vehicle control system installed on a vehicle executes turning control that controls a turning device configured to turn a wheel of the vehicle. The turning control includes: first turning control that generates a target trajectory and makes the vehicle follow the target trajectory; and second turning control that is executed independently of the first turning control without depending on the target trajectory. When the first turning control and the second turning control are executed simultaneously, the vehicle control system determines whether the first turning control counteracts turning by the second turning control. When the first turning control counteracts the turning by the second turning control, the vehicle control system replans the target trajectory by designating at least one of a current position and a current yaw angle of the vehicle as a starting point of the target trajectory.

Abstract: There is provided a technique of controlling, in a printing apparatus that has an access point function, the operation state of the access point function in accordance with the setting of connection information required for wireless direct connection to the printing apparatus. As the setting of the connection information required for the wireless direct connection, the printing apparatus executes a fixed SSID setting or a one-time SSID setting. If the fixed SSID setting is executed, the printing apparatus causes a wireless LAN I/F to start an access point operation in accordance with the activation of the printing apparatus. If the one-time SSID setting is executed, the printing apparatus causes the wireless LAN I/F to start the access point operation in accordance with a start instruction by a user.

Abstract: A print processing apparatus is provided such that when a print processing apparatus is connected to a printing apparatus, use of Wi-Fi Direct is prohibited. On the other hand, in the printing apparatus, when the print processing apparatus is not connected to the printing apparatus, the use of Wi-Fi Direct is permitted.

Abstract: A control method for a printing apparatus that receives print data from a printing service using Internet Printing Protocol and executes printing of the print data, includes displaying, a list of print jobs held in the printing service, accepting a print instruction for a print job selected from the displayed list, sending, to the printing service, a request for transmitting print data, and printing based on a received print data in response to the request triggered by the print instruction, using a printing device, and requesting the printing service to transmit print data corresponding to a print job selected from the list, in response to acceptance of a cancel instruction for the selected print job, and discarding the print data received from the printing service, without executing printing based on the print data.

Abstract: When a print processing apparatus is not connected to a printing apparatus, the printing apparatus generates communication information using an IP address of the printing apparatus and writes the generated communication information into a memory of an NFC communication unit. When the print processing apparatus is connected to the printing apparatus, the printing apparatus generates communication information using an IP address of the print processing apparatus and writes the generated communication information into the memory of the NFC communication unit.

Abstract: A printing apparatus stores a user credential and updates a certificate by using the stored user credential information to reduce the time and effort required by a user to update the certificate.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus determines, when a data transmission is executed, whether or not a host name designated as a destination of the data transmission is set to a terminal list indicating an external terminal that is permitted as a data transmission destination, and if a result of the determination is that the host name is set to the terminal list, permits data transmission irrespective of whether or not an IP address corresponding to the host name is set to the terminal list; and executes data transmission if data transmission is permitted.

Abstract: A mobile terminal (a communication terminal) searches for image forming apparatuses that can use a predetermined service (a print service), and displays, as search results, one or more image forming apparatuses that responded to the search. Furthermore, in the search results, the mobile terminal identifiably displays, in accordance with the response from each image forming apparatus, image forming apparatuses that can use the predetermined service, and image forming apparatuses that cannot use the predetermined service because a setting for the service is set to disabled.

Abstract: A terminal that performs wireless communication with an external apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires wireless communication information about the external apparatus, a transmission unit that transmits a wireless communication connection request to the external apparatus based on the external apparatus' wireless communication information in a case where the external apparatus' wireless communication information matches wireless communication information about the terminal, and a notification unit that notifies of a mismatch of the external apparatus' wireless communication information and the terminal's wireless communication information in a case where the external apparatus' wireless communication information does not match the terminal's wireless communication information.
