Abstract
When a problem occurs in a subset of devices, another device appropriately executes a process instead of the problem device. A printer has a decision unit that determines whether or not a request for specific information was received at a specific time from a specific printer; an information collection device that, when the request is not received at the specific time, collects the specific information of each printer from other printers capable of communicating; and an information transmission device that transmits the specific information that was collected and the specific information about the printer of which it is part to an external server.
