INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS THAT CARRIES OUT REMOTE OPERATION, CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

PURPOSE: An information processing device performing remote manipulation, a control method thereof, and a memory medium thereof are provided to remotely manipulate an image processing device without fixing the information processing device every time a new image processing device comes into the market. CONSTITUTION: A communication unit(308) communicates with an image processing device(200) and a display unit(305) displays a first screen corresponding to a manipulation screen displayed on a display unit of the image processing device and a second screen corresponding to a hardware key included in the image processing device. A maintenance unit(309) stores the image of a hardware key corresponding to the hardware key of the image processing device. A display control unit selects the image of the hardware key corresponding to the hardware key of the image processing device from images of hardware keys in the maintenance unit based on communication information received from the image processing device and displays the second screen on the display unit by using the image of the hardware key.
