Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores a communication processing program. When the program is read, a computer of a label producing apparatus executes a reception start step, machine determination step and a transmission start step. In the reception start step, reception of second state information and second performance/attribute information are started. In the machine determination step, it is determined whether any other label producing apparatus superior with respect to a label producing condition is present or not. In the transmission start step, in the case that any other label producing apparatus superior is present, broadcast transmission of the first state information and the first performance/attribute information is disabled. In the case that no other label producing apparatus superior is present, the broadcast transmission is performed.
