    摘要: A printing device is configured to perform printing with an allowed print amount. The printing device includes a controller to obtain addition type information representing a first guaranteed print amount or a second guaranteed print amount. The first guaranteed print amount corresponds to a first printing privilege to be purchased manually by a user, and the second guaranteed print amount corresponds to a second printing privilege to be automatically purchased. The controller switches, based on the addition type information, a control mode between a first mode in which the first guaranteed print amount is added to the allowed print amount and a second mode in which the second guaranteed print amount is added to the allowed print amount.

    摘要: An image recording device stores correspondence information associating a plurality of status information types, output determination information and request type information. The status information is related to at least one of information on a cartridge and information corresponding to operation of a printing head. The output determination information corresponds to usage type information. The request type information is used to determine a type of a person requesting the status information. A controller of the image recording device is configured to perform receiving an output request of output of the status information, determining a type of the request type information, and identifying the status information of which type is associated with the determined request type information and the output determination information based on the correspondence information from among a plurality of types of the status information.

    摘要: A function executing device may receive a first function executing request from a first external device and receive a second function executing request from a second external device. The function executing device may display, in a case where the first function executing request is received, a first approval screen on the display. The function executing device may display, in a case where the second function executing request is received, a second approval screen on the display. In a case where the second function executing request is received under a state where the first approval screen is displayed on the display, the second approval screen may not be displayed on the display instead of the first approval screen.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes: a scanner, memory storing instructions; and a controller, when executing the instructions, causing the image processing apparatus to execute: a first reception processing of receiving instruction data, a first determination processing of determining whether the instruction data is screen instruction data or action instruction data. If the instruction data is the screen instruction data, the image processing apparatus executes: a display processing of displaying a setting screen, an acceptance processing of accepting a user operation designating the parameter; a first storage processing of storing the parameter designated by the acceptance processing. If the instruction data is the action instruction data, the image processing apparatus executes: a scan instruction processing of causing the scanner to execute the scanning action; a generation processing of generating the metadata, with using the parameter stored in the memory, and a second transmission processing.

    摘要: According to aspects of the present disclosures, an image scanning apparatus receives an inquiry for assignment information and, when the assignment information designates none of multiple destination candidates, transmits the assignment information indicating the same to a mobile terminal. When receiving, from the mobile terminal, an assignment request requesting to assign a server as a destination, the image scanning apparatus checks whether the assignment information designates none of the multiple destination candidates. When it is confirmed that the assignment information designates none of the multiple destination candidates, a state of the assignment information is changed to a state of designating a server as the destination of image data.

    摘要: An information processing device is provided with a display, a communication interface, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform obtaining an access destination information from a storage, wherein one or more access destinations is to be included in the access destination information. When the controller receives, through the communication interface, an installation request to request to install software, the controller is configured to determine whether a new access destination is included in the software based on the obtained access destination information. Further, when it is determined that the new access destination is included in the software, the controller is configured to display an approval screen used to approve installation of the software. When it is determined that the new access destination is not included in the software, the controller is configured to omit the displaying of the approval screen.
