A management server having a function of confirming status information of devices, a method of confirming status information of devices, and a device capable of providing status information. A first writer writes a status information request list necessary to confirm statuses of devices if the management server is turned on. A first communicator transmits the status information request list to the devices and receives status information response lists from the devices. A first parser parses the status information response lists. A server controller confirms statuses of the devices using parsing results. Thus, a list necessary to confirm statuses of devices can be written in an XML file, parsed, and provided to a manager.
