<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printer capable of reducing the power consumption. <P>SOLUTION: The printer 1 determines whether or not any print data is included in a received packet when receiving the packet from a host apparatus 15. When the print data is included in the received packet, the communication speed between the host apparatus 15 and a NIC (Network Interface Card) 12 is set to be high, and a print request is executed. When the reception of the packet including the print data is completed, the communication speed is immediately set to be low, and the processing speed at the NIC 12 is reduced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
