发明名称 Media processing method using multiple processing units for performing multiple processes
摘要 A media processing method comprising receiving, by a first connection unit, a command sent from a host computer; and detecting, by an external device control unit, a process that can be executed by an external processing device. One or more controlling operations are performed by a control unit based on the command received by the first connection unit. Such control entails (i) executing a first process by a first processing unit, or (ii) executing a second process by a second processing unit when the external processing device cannot execute the command, the second process being different than the first process, or (iii) transmitting the command by a second connection unit to the external processing device when the external processing device can execute the command.

主权项 1. A media processing method by a multifunction device, the method comprising: receiving, by a first connection unit, a command sent from a host computer; detecting, by an external device control unit, a process that can be executed by an external processing device; controlling, by a control unit, based on the command received by the first connection unit, (i) executing a first process by a first processing unit, or (ii) executing a second process by a second processing unit when the external processing device cannot execute the command, the second process being different than the first process, or (iii) transmitting the command by a second connection unit to the external processing device when the external processing device can execute the command; detecting, by the external device control unit, that the external processing device does not have a processing, unit that is the same as the second processing unit; and causing the second processing unit to execute the second process.
