<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a communication device and a communication system, capable of easily maintaining communication with an opposite side device even when a setting value relating to a TCP/IP is changed under the environment of being communicably connected with the opposite side device. <P>SOLUTION: In the network setting of an MFP, when the change of a TCP/IP setting value is instructed, the MFP transmits the transmission request 71 of an IP address to a BOX, and sets the IP address of the BOX transmitted from the BOX in response to such a value that the MFP and the BOX can perform data communication even when the setting value of the MFP is changed. Then, after transmitting the set IP address of the BOX to the BOX, the MFP determines the setting value of itself, and the BOX changes the IP address of itself to the IP address transmitted from the MFP. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
