Abstract: A control device includes a memory configured to store variable data including a plurality of page images each including a variable region where an image is variable for each page and a non-variable region including the same image irrespective of the page and a display processing section configured to cause a display device to display a printing preview screen for the variable data. The display processing section causes the display device to display the printing preview screen that displays one or a plurality of row images in which the plurality of page images are arranged in a row in a first direction corresponding to the width direction of a printing medium.

Abstract: A communication device includes a communication section and a controller. The communication section is communicable with a network apparatus via a relay device. The controller controls an operation of the communication section, thereby causes the communication section to transmit one or more search packets to the relay device, and causes the communication section to start communicating with the network apparatus after receiving any of the one or more search packets. The one or more search packets include the communication section as a transmission target.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus has a release mode and a power saving mode with less power consumption, the information processing apparatus comprises: a communication part that communicates with a first information processing apparatus and a terminal apparatus; a storage part that stores first information which is information to be included in a response with respect to a command transmitted from the terminal apparatus by multicasting and received by the communication part; and a control part that sets a response function with respect to the command to either “valid” or “invalid” during the power saving mode. Wherein the control part transmits via the communication part the first information to the first information processing apparatus that performs a proxy response with respect to the command, and thereafter, sets the response function to “invalid” and executes a process to transit from the release mode to the power saving mode.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a communication unit that communicates with an external device and acquires specific information added to a print job stored in the external device, a controller that specifies the print job among a plurality of print jobs stored in the external device based on the specific information acquired from the external device via the communication unit, and issues a transmission request for the specified print job to the external device, and an output unit that forms an image based on the print job acquired from the external device via the communication unit.
