INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM

摘要

An information processing apparatus includes a request unit configured to request information processing to an image processing apparatus via a network; a return unit configured to cause a request processing apparatus to return to a first operation mode from a second operation mode, wherein the request processing apparatus supplements a function when the image processing apparatus executes the information processing, and the request processing apparatus operates in the first operation mode and in the second operation mode in which power consumption is lower than that of the first operation mode; and a determining unit configured to determine whether the requested information processing is a predetermined type. When it is determined that the information processing is the predetermined type, the request processing apparatus is caused to return to the first operation mode from the second operation mode, before the information processing is requested to the request processing apparatus.

1. An information processing apparatus for requesting information processing via a network, the information processing apparatus comprising:
a request unit configured to send a request for the information processing to at least one image processing apparatus via the network; a return unit configured to cause a request processing apparatus to return to a first operation mode from a second operation mode, wherein the request processing apparatus supplements a function when the image processing apparatus executes the information processing, and the request processing apparatus operates in the first operation mode and in the second operation mode in which power consumption is lower than that of the first operation mode; and a determining unit configured to determine whether the information processing requested by the request unit is a predetermined type, wherein when the determining unit determines that the information processing is the predetermined type, the return unit causes the request processing apparatus to return to the first operation mode from the second operation mode, before the request unit sends the request for the information processing to the request processing apparatus.
